Coventry City defender Leon Barnett has admitted that he is scared to tackle after receiving four yellow cards in his last two matches.
The centre half who is on loan from West Brom told the CT; "i am just a bit scared to go and tackle now because I must have made five or six fouls and got four yellow cards in the space of two games.
"It has been very frustrating being suspended because I am fit and raring to go and then all of a sudden I couldn't play but it is good to see the team doing well.
"Everyone tells me that I am unlucky but you still have it in your head the next game you play in and I have to be careful when I tackle.
"it is something I am going to have to get over because I have never been sent off two games in a row before. I think everyone knew i was a bit down because I have found it quite hard to get back into the team but these things happen and you just have to be strong and get over it.
"I know in the next game, that I will be a bit wary to put my foot in but that happens in football."
Barnett will be eligible for City's home game against Cardiff City on March 16th.
