Arsenal v Man Utd (HT 0-0) With Mike Dean looking on, Jack Wilshire somehow stayed on the pitch after shoving his head into Marouane Fellaini a couple of times. Mike Dean bottled it (yet again) - I guess Arsenal must have payed their dues this week? [video=youtube;0Vmj5uwJ_YA]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Vmj5uwJ_YA&feature=youtu.be&a[/video] Now Fellaini has dished that kind of stuff out himself in the past:- [video=youtube;99QRwSrRIus]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=99QRwSrRIus&feature=youtu.be&a[/video] Now if that was Joey Barton, you know what would happen! Luke Shaw off injured - the commentator mentioned this is their 40th injury so far this season. 29 mins It's not the size of the dog in the fight... Jack Wilshere squares up to Marouane Fellaini, a good seven inches taller (including hair), and referee Mike Dean has to intervene. Both skippers are called over and the international sign for 'calm down' is heavily deployed. I tell you what, Wilshere could have been sent off! He definitely put his head into Fellaini. At least as bad as Christian Benteke's red card v Spurs a few weeks back. A major talking point... Comments:- "How is Wilshere still on the pitch? You know the other way round Fellaini would be off." "Wilshere has to go. The referee is looking RIGHT at it and doesn't even book him!? When did refs become so weak?" "Straight red, I don't see how he can't give that, he's right there. Bottled it."
Mike Dean absolutely totally useless - late in the game he's allowing players to mix it up, going at one another all over the place, with only a single yellow card dished out - commentator cynically states that Mike Dean is probably thinking, "I'm going out to dinner tonight"! FT 2-1 United.
