It is abundantly clear that FA is determined on bringing us down; he simply did not deserve this.ππππ As a result of his actions against Brighton, the star player for Manchester United is facing a two-match suspension before to the encounter against Liverpool.
At this stage of the season, the midfielder has already accumulated eight yellow cards, leaving him just two away from facing a two-match suspension.
In the Premier League, if a player collects ten yellow cards within the first 32 matches for their club, they face an immediate two-game suspension.
Having already received five yellow cards this season, Fernandes has served one of his suspensions already, missing the game against Liverpool on December 17.
Should he receive bookings against Chelsea and Liverpool, Fernandes risks missing subsequent matches against Bournemouth and Sheffield United.
The upcoming Liverpool game is crucial for Fernandes to avoid suspension, provided he doesn’t collect his tenth yellow card before facing Bournemouth.
Following United’s FA Cup victory over Liverpool before the international break, Fernandes had limited involvement with the center defense.
His only red card in the nine Premier League matches since then occurred against Fulham, making him United’s most red-carded player this season.
Several players in the league, including Fernandes, are on the brink of suspension, while Bruno Guimaraes of Newcastle United and Nicolas Jackson of Chelsea are even closer, with nine yellow cards each.
For Chelsea to secure a playoff spot, they need to win four more games within their first 32 matches of the season.
