Everton midfielder Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall said it’s “mind boggling” that he has already received a suspension after picking up five yellow cards in six Premier League appearances.
Dewsbury-Hall, booked for a challenge on Kyle Walker-Peters during Monday’s 1-1 draw against West Ham, will miss Sunday’s game against Crystal Palace.
“Forgive me if I’m wrong, and I might be, but some of these decisions are so hard to take. Mind boggling,” the 27-year-old posted on X, external.
It is not unheard of for players to be suspended for an accumulation of yellow cards at this stage of the campaign – it happened to striker Nicolas Jackson at Chelsea two seasons ago.
Everton manager David Moyes said referee Samuel Barrott’s decision to show a card was “shabby” and questioned the level of officiating in the Premier League.
“I think the decisions we’ve had at the moment [have been frustrating], but I think all the managers might be saying that at the moment,” Moyes said.
“I mean there’s been a general poor level at the moment. I thought the decision on Dewsbury-Hall was a really shabby decision.”
