First of all....best player on the park today by a country mile.

BUT....yet again another stupid booking. You can understand players getting booked for mis-timed tackles. But yet again Ben gets booked for kicking the ball away....in the 85th min whilst we are 3-1 up.
And then later on starts mouthing off and Clarke has to push him away and you can visibly see Clarke say to Davies...keep him away. Then in the 89th min, they get a free kick and Ben starts to do kick ups with the ball whilst walking away...the lad just cannot help himself or be trusted.

He now misses arguably the two most important games of the season this far.

Well done Ben - when are you going to learn?
 
He'll never learn.

Basically, he is a daft lad.

DJ to play in his place in the next 2 games for me.
 
IT seems to be in his DNA and take this part of his play away and he may not be as effective for us as he is. The question we have to as is a) is it better for us if he continues like this for us, or b) cut out his aggressive side and be less effective for us?
 
It is what it is and I doubt anyone will take this out of his game without removing the passion that drives him.
 
In some respects it might be better if he doesn't learn - that could keep him here at Deepdale. May be the price we have to pay.
My thoughts too great player pity he can't control the red mist. Referee's give him no protection the times he's been took out completely and the player has got away with no card yet Ben gets booked every poor challenge he makes. That causes the RED MIST.

Being gobby isn't aggression nor a part of his skill base, it is just plain idiocy! His gobbiness is usually when there is a break in play. Needs sorting out.

Keep yer gob shut Ben, you daft wazzock. You will never win with an official.
 
He is our best player....when he is on the pitch.
People say would you want to take this out of his game etc....kicking the ball away??? Yes I would!!! I understand the tackles and certainly wouldn't want to take THAT out of his game but kicking the ball away...he absolutely must stop that!

It isn't his aggressive side that gets him booked half the time though. Yes he can still be aggressive/effective for us without kicking the ball away, gobbing off to the ref and son on.
 
Pearson is our best player!

He is also a bit of a idiot!

I’m irritated by the nature of his booking but I’m not sure he is ever going to learn.

Two huge games coming up and we will miss him, let’s hope it’s not too much and others can step in.

I'm not sure why so many people think he wouldn't be as effective if we took his agression away. How do we know? Has he ever tried doing this? Does he not have any other qualities that he could use instead? He looks pretty decent on the ball to me.
