Premier League managerial reaction: "I made 11 mistakes", says Jose Mourinho

Hull City 1-0 Sunderland

Sunderland’s Uruguayan manager Gus Poyet (R) laughs with Hull City’s Hull City’s English manager Steve Bruce (C) ahead of the English Premier League football match between Hull City and Sunderland at The KC Stadium in Hull on November 2, 2013. Hull won the game 1-0.

Steve Bruce: “Thankfully (Lee Cattermole) is not mine to manage anymore. (But) we all know what I think of Lee as a player. One thing Lee’s got to curb is that red mist that comes down. We know you can’t make that challenge in today’s football, you just can’t make it. He’s got to learn that and I’m sure he will… eventually. In my day it might have been a booking but the directive is that if you leave the floor with studs showing, even if you don’t make contact, it is seen as reckless and endangering the player. The referee’s got that one right and the second one (by Dossena) is a horror challenge, let me tell you.”

Gus Poyet: “Cattermole no, Dossena yes (red cards). I would love the ref to talk. If I was a pundit working today – and I was during the summer when I was out of work – I would ask the technical people to show the tackle on Westwood that nearly cut his head off, the one on Adam Johnson (by Robbie Brady) and the one from Lee Cattermole and let the pundits comment on them. They need to comment on all the tackles. I’m not accusing McShane at all: I think he played the ball and he was late but he nearly killed him and he is injured and he is out and I need to change my goalkeeper. The tackle of Lee didn’t touch him (Elmohammady). He was still on the pitch and he was down for two minutes, there’s a little bit of a difference. Maybe I’m from another planet, I don’t know.”
