I think Scolari is rather funny or silly... He look rather inexperienced for a manager at his age when he said...
If Bosingwa's own manager said this, Then how on earth can the FA now not look into this matter? He should just be like Wenger and said something like "Oh i didn't see that incident and I have not watch the replay in TV yet mah" Like that everything over now the FA may look into this...
Lack of experience in the Premiership...
not lack is honest

Lampard gets red-card reprieve as ref Riley admits: I should not have sent you off
Flashpoint: Lampard and Alonso clash
Frank Lampard will see his three-match ban wiped out by the FA today after referee Mike Riley admitted he made a horrible mistake on Sunday at Anfield.
Lampard’s red card in the 2-0 defeat to Liverpool will be overturned by an FA disciplinary commission after Riley accepted his error.
But, amazingly, Chelsea team-mate Jose Bosingwa looks set to escape punishment for his wild kick on Yossi Benayoun.
Manchester City’s Shaun Wright-Phillips is expected to be charged with violent conduct for kicking out at Stoke’s Rory Delap on Saturday, but the FA are powerless to charge Bosingwa because Riley has told them his assistant Mo Matadar saw the kick on Benayoun and decided not to act.
Matadar was only a couple of feet from the incident when Benayoun shielded the ball from Didier Drogba near a corner flag in the closing moments of Chelsea’s 2-0 defeat at Anfield.
Bosingwa pushed past Drogba, planted the studs of his right boot into Benayoun’s back and forced him to the ground, but no action was taken.
FIFA rules prevent the FA from re-refereeing games with the benefit of hindsight and video replays, but they are allowed to step in and act on any incident missed by the match officials.
That means Lampard and Bosingwa should be available for Chelsea against Hull on Saturday.
