In his defence, he grew up watching Rooney being hailed as an England hero, whilst continually abusing officials, both during and after the games. Fernandez actually looks like he’s refereeing the games, but the media just tell us he’s ‘world class’, and ‘passionate’, with no mention of his antics.
There are many more players that fall into that category but I think they are the worst two.
All the while this behaviour goes unpunished, the more it becomes acceptable. It’s this that then leads to referees getting assaulted in Sunday league games and will, eventually, kill the game.
Never understood how they don’t bring in a rule that if you shout at the ref it’s an instant yellow - only captains can discuss anything with official. Might be anarchy at first but would soon root it out.
