Linesman was the difference, 2 poor sides but any momentum we built up was stopped by him.
Agree with you,generally speaking I think Mike Dean is the best of a bad bunch but last night those three decisions he made were terrible.Not his fault though that we couldn`t muster a shot on target in 90 minutes.Thought we should have had a pen .we should have had a foul beforebthey scored and hownthe fuck he gave a yellow card when our player slipped is a mystery ..am not clutching at straws honest !!!
Two minutes after he'd let Blind haul Nolito down after turning him nicely.I mean, the booking after 8 minutes when Iheanacho slipped on an overwatered pitch and his face connected with Blinds shin really set the tone for the abject officiating throughout.
Am i missing something today with their goal? My reaction was it was a blatant foul on Fernando that let the ball run to Mata to score. However today, media ive heard praising the ref for playing advatage for the foul by fernando. I know i have blue tinted glasses on, but surely not? I thought the ref was very favourable towards them, but i expect nothing less with how bent refs are.
Lies, Damn Lies & Statistics eh..!Statistically Dean is one of City's best refs and one of the rags' worst refs. Not that you'd know it from last night.
Yes i thought it was a blatant foul on Fernando. He steps across Fernando to stop him getting to ball, not sure how that can be manipulated into good advantage.They're just following rag Tyler's lead. Watch Herrera glance at Dean when the ball goes in, he knew he got away with one.
So we should not have had a penalty and there goal should have stood thenI actually thought the ref was alright last night, no real complaints. I thought the linesman down near us was a fucking knob head though, he missed some blatant fouls right in front of him.

Not so sure I thought it was a foul at first then saw it from a different angle and thought it was a penYes i thought it was a blatant foul on Fernando. He steps across Fernando to stop him getting to ball, not sure how that can be manipulated into good advantage.
They were definitely better than us last night at throwing themselves to the floor and winning a freekick, that last 15 minutes was killed by them.In saying that Nando should've screamed, the way Twatan was doing every time anyone breathed in his vicinity.
