SISSOKO NOT PHASED BY YELLOW CARDS

Momo Sissoko has spoken out on his attraction for yellow cards, but admitted, although the manager had talked to him about staying professional he would not lose up the commitment side of his game.

"I'm not really worried. I've not committed any really serious tackles, I've not injured any players.

"I don't see that they would particularly label me, especially if you look at other games and other players in the past who have done things that are a lot more serious.

"I have been punished for my exuberance and my enthusiasm. My aim is to get the ball and that is the role of a midfielder.

"That is what they should be doing, I do that as much as possible but sometimes I cause some problems.

"But they are not intentional, I always just go for the ball and I do not mean to do anyone any harm.

"The manager told me to be careful and calm down. If I get one card that's not good. If I get two that is bad for the team."
