Can anyone find a clip of the yellow card he got for handball last weekend?

Thanks for the memories Paq, but it’s time to say goodbye

Wow, the mod who did the thread title nailed it again, does everyone agree ?

Put a bet on Arsenal to win the league apparently.

Just seen it. Hard to see from the clip but it looked like he deliberately punched the ball when he went up for a challenge from a goal kick. Very suspect considering he was going to be taken off.

Hmmm…strange one tbh. Didn’t really watch the game but that looks a bit dodgy to me.

Suspicious

The thing I find strange is that he didn’t even contest the referee’s decision to book him.

Surely he would've known he was coming off as well? That's what screams dodgy to me.

No top player earning millions has a need to bet on themselves.

More likely, he’s got a gambling issue like alot of young men and has gambled on matches.

Imagine the uproar if this came out after City bought him.

His family have been betting on him getting yellow cards by the sounds of it.

When I was at the Conference League Semi I thought Paqueta was unreal. Him and Rice probably the two best players on the pitch. Mad if his move is stopped because his family bet on games. As mentioned above what's to stop a family member whose nose has been bent out of shape betting against you as a way of revenge. Or at least blackmailing you. Uncle Tony said you better pay him 50k otherwise he's gonna place bets against you then report it to fifa. Very strange.

Thoughts on the witty title?

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

He should tell his family members to bet in sport that other than football. But again would be unfair to punish him if its family members

Paqbeta?

Interesting as there is a HUGE scandal going on in Brazil about match fixing that sprawls from our 3rd tier (Serie C) all the way to the first division.
