Mou has really stepped in it this time

Seems the dust up with team doctor Eva Carneiro is creating more backlash than he expected.

It is year three of his time back so it's time for an implosion.

1. He's a strangely amusing guy to watch....

but this is just not cool. Regardless of the backstory (if any), he wanted to prevent the medical team from rendering aid when one of his players was down and the referee was waving for medical help. Terrible judgment.

2. Agreed

She was doing her job. They don't run out there unless the ref waves them on.

3. A ridiculous decision, doubled down on.

In a strictly football sense, there's no better manager active today. But in most every other sense, the guy's a trainwreck. This terrible sequence of decisions smacks of really bad priorities. The stricter rules regarding player safety are one of the best things that's happened in the sport in years, and placing victory above the well-being of your players is unacceptable.

Besides, they weren't going to win that one, anyway. They were being outplayed on the pitch.
