# Leeds: Gabby Agbonlahor says Luis Sinisterra should be fined

**Pundit Gabby Agbonlahor has hit out at [Leeds United](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/leeds-united-news/) winger Luis Sinisterra following his sending off on the weekend, [Football Insider](https://www.footballinsider247.com/agbonlahor-leeds-united-should-fine-luis-sinisterra-after-latest-twist-in-controversy/) report.**

### The Lowdown: Red card

The Whites managed to take a point from Sunday’s meeting with Aston Villa after playing the majority of the second half a man down.

Sinisterra received a yellow card for a tackle on John McGinn in the first half and was then shown a second just after half-time for illegally blocking an Aston Villa free-kick from close range.

[Graham Smyth](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/leeds-united-news/stuart-attwell-leeds-villa-sinisterra-sent-off/) thinks that referee Stuart Attwell may have forgotten the 23-year-old was already on a yellow, with the official coming in for plenty of [criticism](https://www.footballinsider247.com/leeds-united-employee-hits-out-at-shocking-footage/) for his overall display.

### The Latest: Agbonlahor’s comments

Agbonlahor, who contributes for [Sky Sports](https://icdb.tv/stats/6750/Gabby-Agbonlahor), was talking to [FI](https://www.footballinsider247.com/agbonlahor-leeds-united-should-fine-luis-sinisterra-after-latest-twist-in-controversy/) regarding Sinisterra’s sending-off, believing that Jesse Marsch should be fining the winger following his actions.

> “You are on a yellow card, why would you stick your foot out when you’re so close?
>
> “That’s time-wasting. Jesse Marsch should look at that incident before he starts waffling about Villa time-wasting.
>
> “If you’re going to do that you’ve got to face the consequences. It happened to \[Raul\] Jimenez last season for Wolves against Man City. He got two quick yellows. Referees have got to make a statement.
>
> “If you’re the manager, you’re fining that player. He made it difficult for the rest of the team.”

### The Verdict: Afternoon to forget

It was certainly a frustrating afternoon against Villa in regards to Sinisterra’s actions and the way Attwell officiated, but Marsch needs to take the positives.

Leeds managed to keep Villa out for just a [second](https://www.skysports.com/leeds-united-results) clean sheet of the season, with the Whites remaining unbeaten at home in the Premier League.

Agbonlahor may well get his wish with an in-house fine for Sinisterra following his red card, and it wouldn’t come as a surprise if Marsch were to have a stern word with the Colombian, who will miss this weekend’s trip to Crystal Palace.
