I think this is horrible behavior from Carlsen. He flubbed the opening and got into a bad position, then throws a temper tantrum insinuating that his opponent was cheating. If you make an accusation like that and it's proven to be false you should be suspended from tournament play.

There is simply no proof, or even a hint of proof, that Niemann did anything wrong. Carlsen, however, is a drama queen with an enormous ego who is using his power to slander another player.

I think Carlsen should be suspended, not Niemann.
