Red Card Ruin: Edson Alvarez’s West Ham Nightmare

Mexican defender Edson Alvarez experienced the toughest Day of the Dead in the Premier League. He has been unable to contribute to the team due to his recent red card.

Surprisingly, the fact that Nottingham Forest are currently third in the Premier League has surprised many. This is a result of the chances the ‘wooden’ team created after Alvarez was sent off with one more player, making it an increasingly nightmarish situation for the former America player and his team.

After Machin’s second red card this season, he has come under harsh criticism from some Hammers fans and critics.

His first red card came in the crushing defeat to Liverpool in the EFL Cup third round, and he received two yellow cards in less than 10 minutes on 25 September.

In that time he has received a total of seven yellow cards: one with the national team, two in cup matches and four in the league.

Considering last season, he has received a total of 23 cards since arriving in the world’s best league, 15 of which have taken place in the Premier League. This means he is the second most penalized player in the league since arriving in England.

Edsson knows his mistake was costly, but it was his first ever red card in the Premier League. You can understand the pain by the look on manager Julen Lopetegui’s face when he saw his confused reaction as he left the City Ground changing room. Local fans also used this as an opportunity to ridicule them.

Moreover, the arrival of Argentine and former América team-mate Gido Rodriguez has had a huge impact on the London club’s midfield.

He will now miss the Round 11 match against Everton, a similar situation to the match against Bournemouth. However, he could return for the game against Newcastle.
