Real Madrid forward Vinicius Jr says defenders can kick him all day but he is the one who gets booked.
He wants referees to protect players who can change a match, and he named himself, Lamine Yamal and Julian Alvarez.
He also questioned a four match ban for pulling an opponent's hair.
He said he cannot remember any player getting that much for the same offence.
Vinicius said he often feels rival clubs and the media come after him.
He reminded critics that he joined Real Madrid at 18, when many people laughed at him, and has since scored more than 100 goals for the club and won many trophies.
His message to doubters was simple: Vini always comes back.
