Absolutely shockingly bad reffing. You're usually all over awful calls like this Zizu?

I’ve completely given up worrying about decisions now .. the refs are so unpredictable and incompetent

Pepe gave an interview years ago where he divulged that he liked the sound when he crunched people

He admitted he’d developed a 3 prong attack where when he went in for a ‘tackle’ he went in with his elbow , knee and foot - then he used to stand over them screaming that they were faking it. !!


There’s footage of one of his assaults assault on Messi on YouTube and Messi is writhing on the floor holding his ribs and thigh ..

If looks as though he’s exaggerating things but he was hurt in two or three areas ..

Pepe doesn't shock me, he makes Joelinton seem like a cuddly teddy bear in comparison.

Tbh I don't like really physical challenges, especially if it's around the head because that could ruin someone's life if the other player has caught them in a precise area.

Obviously you need some physicality in the game, I agree with you that the Premier League are sometimes letting situations escalate into someone running the risk of getting seriously hurt.

Whilst I agree with you, and tbh there was no real guarantee that Grealish was going to score that particular opportunity anyway (so the "injustice" is quite minor imo) it still was another mistake off the officiating team again, and while it weren't 99.99% likely that Man City were going to score (unlike penalty claims) there still was a decent chance that Grealish might've made it 4-3, which is frustrating to see the competition keep being bogged down by possibly game changing decisions that are factually incorrect.

I mean just this season in the Premier League we've had.

1. Newcastle's two offenses against Arsenal - I mean every replay angle shows the ball clearly went out, I don't know how VAR and the Linesman in real time have both missed that, and the obvious foul from Joelinton on Gabriel after the first mistake.

2. Wolves existing seems to just trigger the Referees this season.

3. Liverpool having a legit goal disallowed against Tottenham.

4. Man City getting a penalty against Man Utd that wasn't a penalty.

5. Man City's two offenses against Chelsea - Again a penalty that wasn't a penalty, and one of their goals was handball off Haaland yet the goal stood.

6. The Man City game yesterdayday.

And to add Blues into the mix we've had one this season.

1. We got an extremely soft penalty against West Brom, I never thought that it was a penalty at the time, and I still stand by that opinion now.

And this is just from the games that I've personally seen, and we're not even at the halfway point of the season yet.

I personally hold a similar view to Mark Goldbridge on this topic, no matter what team it is I am against whatever is going on here with the Referees this season, it's either incompetence or corruption, and personally I don't want any team to face either option.

Especially considering how angry I was (and tbf still am) about England having Stevie Wonder as the Referee in the France match at the Qatar World Cup, these mistakes can cost teams trophies, get teams relegated if it's a League competition, get Managers sacked when they might've otherwise been given more time if the Referee in question hadn't ****ed up.

Basically I'm not a fan, and apologies for the speech.

i thought it was funny that Pep said he wasn't going to do an Arteta

I do appreciate that about Pep, he also said mistakes happen, the team isn't perfect, no-one is perfect ..... i wish more would accept this reality

There used to be just three teams I always watched to see lovely , entertaining football Arsenal, Liverpool and Barcelona though they are struggling somewhat after losing Messj

Anyway I’ve added Spurs to my ‘must watch’ list

bit of RB Leipzig for me (Openda, Xavi Simons, Benny Sesko, the latter whom is being hyped as the ''slovene haaland'' in his nation btw whom will now be in the euro's with slovenia, also goalie Janis Blaswich from crap and relegating at Heracles Almelo to fab in Leipzig and being called up for Die Mannschaft)

Manchester United banned journalists from four media outlets from Tuesday's news conference with boss Erik ten Hag.

United claimed they had not been given right of reply to negative stories around the club.

Journalists from Sky, ESPN, Manchester Evening News and the Mirror were excluded after reporting some players were unhappy with Dutchman Ten Hag.

-----------------------------

Obviously a happy club

You like Spurs Zizu, who are only just shy of being Newcastle levels of rough and dirty. Your bias looks ridiculous at times.

Quite enjoying this Luton-Arsenal game. 3-3 at the moment but it’s absolutely screwed my FPL team.

It’s a good game for Ramsdale as the keeper has made two more howlers

Really pathetic from Chelsea, how many decent chances on the counter have they wasted?! Really annoying.
