Absolutely bang on,it started the first few games of the season,then they improved drastically now it’s happening again ..edit I will say the added time was about right there was a few delays especially mangala and their keeper..Said it on match day thread ref can influence the game like no one else can.
I feel like referees try and balance out the games and allow weaker opposition to put an extra 20% on all tackles.I'm fairly certain we're going to see more physicality and red card worthy offenses given a pass by referees as I lived through this with Pep's Barcelona too. When the opposition can't outfootball you, they resort to the dark arts so long as there are permissive referees
