WHAT'S NEW THIS SEASON? DISCIPLINARY SANCTIONS

As the days count down to the first match of the season, premierleague.com looks at things new to the competition for 2018/19.
Technical-area behaviour

A totting-up system similar to player cautions has been introduced this season for breaches of discipline during matches by managers or other members of team staff in the technical area.

Every time a referee issues an official, stage-one warning to a manager or other member of team staff in the technical area, the caution will be logged.

The match official will not show a yellow or a red card to the offender during the match but they will be informed that a stage-one warning has been administered.

Sanctions will subsequently be imposed after four, eight, 12 and 16 warnings per individual.
Competition specific

Also in 2018/19 player cautions will now be competition specific.

This means yellow cards picked up in Premier League matches will only be relevant to that competition.

A player who receives five cautions in the Premier League before the 19th PL match will be given a one-match suspension, to be served in the Premier League.

Ten cautions received by the 32-match mark will result in a two-match ban for the offending player.

Major threat The 27-year-old boasted a fine record in last season's Championship. He scored seven goals and recorded a total of 50 shots on goal. Although he has yet to score this term, Morrison has carried a major threat for the Bluebirds. Chance creator No Cardiff player has bettered his totals of seven chances created and two big chances. A big chance is a situation where the player receiving the pass is expected to score. Morrison's aerial threat can be decisive against visitors Burnley this Sunday. He has won 37 headed duels this season, more than any other defender. Claret concess...
