Aston Villa manager Steve Bruce believes England Under-21 international Jack Grealish's three-match ban for violent conduct was on the harsh side.
Grealish was punished by the Football Association after video evidence showed that his boot made contact with Conor Coady while in a prone position in Saturday's 1-1 draw with Wolves.
Bruce told BBC WM: "It's something we'll have a conversation about.
"But I feel he's been a bit hard done by. It's because it's Jack Grealish."
The incident spilled over into an ugly flare-up between players from both teams, which led to Coady and Villa striker Ross McCormack, who ran several yards to get involved, both being booked for retaliation.
