Ref standards and VAR standards have been atrocious this season.

VAR official: “yo, come watch this video. This guy gets totally nailed in the face. So funny…. Wait what were we doing? Um… do a drop ball.”

Would it really change how we feel about his accomplishments? The Knocks against him are always the financial dominance his teams hold over the league, so finding out that the finances were fishy doesn’t really change that. I can’t imagine finding out that they used sketchy financials to fund the team changes how we feel about the on field product when we were aware that they’d spent a shitload anyway.

Maybe I’m just misunderstanding the charges.

He broke out right when every good player turned out to be Belgian

Dmitri Payet being the most exciting player every single week for like 18 months.

Michu’s half season was the most amazing hot stretch.

Otherwise, I just want to name some random ass people who were amazing for a second. Adnan Januzaj carrying Man United. Ravel Morrison being a legend for 15 minutes. Papiss Cisse’s brace vs Chelsea was the most ridiculous thing I’ve seen

It’s early enough and there enough bad teams that they could survive, whereas if this happened the last couple seasons, it would have killed them.

As a Chelsea fan, I’m worried they’ll deliberate long enough that the punishment will get levied without enough time to escape

Scoring only 9 goals with that rate seems bad

Lol

I could see the ref missing it, but the linesman is on that side of the pitch. How could he miss it

This kid doesn’t feel anything. Been ice cold
