Sky Sports Correspondent Melissa Reddy I got a yellow card from Vicki Gummersal Back in the studio when I used the NSFW expression to describe how the new Manchester United goalkeeper, Andre OnanaControls the back line of his team.

“A huge figure – we’ve already seen glimpses of that. He annoys his defenders when they make a mistake.”
She later explained that the term is commonly used in her home country, South Africa, where it is not considered offensive.
Indeed, although Sky Sports felt the need to apologize, Melissa’s colorful description impressed most tweeters.
