Chelsea fans took to social media to fume about captain Conor Gallagher for his sending off in the first half against Brighton, a week after skipper Reece James also saw red.
Gallagher took the armband for Sunday's Premier League game at Stamford Bridge with James suspended after his red card at Newcastle, but the midfielder picked up two yellow cards in the opening 45 minutes of play, and was subsequently sent off.
The Blues, who were 2-1 up at the time of Gallagher's sending off, held on during a nervy finish at the Bridge to run out 3-2 winners - but still Chelsea fans had choice words about the 23-year-old's dismissal.
