Avram Grant has spoken out at his anger that Michael Essien was sent off for a flailing arm he threw at Kenny Miller in Chelsea's 2-0 victory over Derby at Pride Park.
Grant was far from happy with the decision as he said: "I don't like to speak against a referee.
"I have not done it many times in my life and I don't want to do it now, especially as he is a first-year referee in the Premier League.
"I don't want to say something against him but I have a feeling - and I was warned about this before I came to Chelsea and I fear it's true - that we are an easy target for getting red cards.
"It happened against Manchester United and Fulham this season and in both of those games we lost points, yet everybody saw they were not red cards, and today was the same.
"So I don't like the idea that we are an easy target. Everybody needs to think about."
