There's always one team (often more than one) that gets an artificially inflated position because of refereeing decisions. Could that team be Everton this season? Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying the decisions were wrong, but they were certainly helpful. What happens is that the momentum of decisions then builds up so it becomes much more easy to give them in favour of the same team, and harder to give those against. It's subtle but I think it happens.
Since the start of last season, Aleksandar Mitrovic's 27 league goals are more than any other player has managed in England’s top four tiers. - BBC Surprised nobody's moved for him.
ive banged on about him often think he’s a good option off the bench probably wants first team football
Lets see how many he scores in the PL. For me he’s one of them players that looks good in the second tier but frustrating in the top tier. Because he takes penalties, he might get 10-12 but I’ll be surprised if he scores more than that
What? So the decisions today weren’t wrong, but you’re suggesting we could somehow gain places due to referring decisions, based on seemingly nothing but the referee making correct decisions today? What abject nonsense that is.
I'd question Bilic's red. Seemed totally unnecessary. Not sure why Oxlade-Chamberlain got one, either...
Gary Neville spitting feathers at Palace being awarded a penalty for handball against his beloved United, was he not watching last season and the plethora of soft penalties gifted to United on an almost weekly basis. The bloke is a grade A mug.
He wants to learn the laws of the game - both decisions were absolutely correct but once again we have co-commentator who cannot be impartial and as such loses perspective when decisions don't go their way. Zaha was excellent today
Do you think that every decision is 100% yes or no? They're almost all shades of grey. The officials unfortunately always provide a degree of subjectivity. The question is onto what side do they err? But I'm arguing that decisions in favour of a team build up momentum and start to impact on the grey decisions, so they move in favour of certain teams. This is not about whether today's decisions were right or wrong, just how they affect subsequent ones.
You’re talking in absolute riddles. As you’re somehow suggesting that a perfectly correct decision today will somehow influence future decisions because we won? Last season we had a VAR decision that bad that the PGMOL admitted it was wrong. The decision they admitted was wrong was vs the mighty Bournemouth.
