Did anyone see the sucker punch he took on Thursday evening against Lazio? It wasn't caught by the officials but the cameras captured it and he ended up with a 3 game ban.

Van Bommel has been guilty of some nasty stuff in the past, but that was a pretty good shot he took. Rubbish punch, but nasty where he took it.

I'd agree with your observations about Van Bommel Andy, however, I've never sen him pull sneaky stuff like that.

The connection was sweeeeet! But to be fair, how none of the officials spotted it is ridiculous and obviously shows why we need to be able to intervene (via the fourth official or whatever) with the use of replays.
