Mike Dean

Only lets me choose one option.

What a silly thread

You are Mike Dean and I claim my 5 English pounds.

Laughed out loud when Tyldesley said it was a mystery why we'd had no pens in the PL this season based on the amount of time we spend in the opposition box.

Not a mystery to Pep, "we get zero help" and any City fan.

Now not sure of the Var rule. First half possible pen to city ref did not give it, no VAR. Second half pen appeal to villa ref didn’t give it, this however went to VAR. We also had a few appeals at our home matches that have not gone to VAR. Just confused.

VAR is clearly being used subjectively.

They are all checked.

So all appeals are checked. We are just not advised of this. At least that is fair. I didn’t think either of the appeals were pens tonight.

Yeah, every single challenge that is could be a penalty is checked.

Commentators generally big up the ones for the underdogs, which is why our appeals never get mentioned.

I didn’t think they were penalties either.

Towards the end he was waving at Zinchenko to hurry up with a throw in. Earlier, he did sod all about the Villa player (twice) spending 2 or 3 minutes wiping the ball. Still, I suppose it was their own time they were wasting.

 

[Kippax77]

Most touches in the opposition's box yet the fewest penalties.
VAR is an overnight success,say the YANKS

 

[The Future’s Blue!]

When Pep says ‘incredible ’, you know that he’s annoyed with the ref.

 

[growl]

Gave us nothing tonight. There is no agenda. It is just another in a long line of coincidences. It all evens out over a century.
