Just from this thread, about 8/10 people think that it wasn't a red card offence.
You think it was a red card offence just because the outcome was a broken leg.
IMO the ref would come out of it fine if he was to look at the incident again and admitted that he over-reacted to the incident based upon the broken leg of Ramsey.
IMO he'd look far more stupid if he was to insist that it was a valid red card when watching it back on the video. It isn't. Only you and Arsene Wenger think it was.
