“He’s got nobody to blame but himself.” Michael Owen has no sympathy for Trossard

Leandro Trossard put Arsenal in a difficult situation after being sent off for a second bookable offence in their match against Manchester City.

The Belgian started the game in midfield, replacing Martin Odegaard, who missed the match due to injury.

Trossard is typically one of Arsenal’s most impactful players when coming off the bench, but he struggled in this starting role.

He received two bookings, with the second—just before halftime—being particularly avoidable.

The former Brighton man was sent off for kicking the ball away after the referee had blown the whistle for a foul he committed.

Michael Owen commented that while the booking may have seemed harsh had it been someone else, Trossard’s decision to commit the foul and then kick the ball away made little sense.

He said on Premier League productions:

“If somebody else had made that foul and then kicked it [referee Michael Oliver] might not notice it, but he created a foul, a reckless foul, he heard the whistle, then kicked it away. He’s got nobody to blame but himself.”

That was a terrible mistake that Trossard did not have to make, and he knows he has let his team down, so he will be careful next time.
