Manchester City chief Patrick Vieira is critical of the phasing out of tackling in the Premier League.
The former Arsenal hero was known for his tackling combative style during his pomp and admits he would be looking at red cards on a regular basis these days.
He said: "Ten years ago the game was much more physical than it is now. I remember the tackles that were happening when I was playing for Arsenal.
"If that one for Vincent was a red card there would have been a sending off in every game I played for Arsenal.
"Now it looks like you cannot tackle anymore. The refereeing body has to be really careful to not kill the passion of the game."
