There isn't a worst choice. He has a track record backdating years and only if Poll were to come out of retirement could things get worse.

This season alone he has:

- Booked Torres for diving when it was a stonewall pen
- Booked Luiz for diving when it was a stonewall pen
- Awarded United a penalty for Nani tripping over his own feet

Past seasons:

- Sent off Ashley Cole and awarded Villa a last minute pen when the ball hit his chest (2008)
- Sent off Carvalho in the same game for kicking the ball (2008)
- Awarded Spurs a penalty when the ball didn't even hit JT's arm and it wasn't even intentional
- Sent off Cech for a Rodallega dive in what should have been a yellow at best, never a clear goalscoring opportunity in a month of Sundays

The list just goes on really
 
You have to remember, he will probably have a world wide audience of 3-400 million people and I think he wouldn't want to make himself look stupid on such a big stage! It might be the end of a career move! Remember Ovrebo?
