I like how Arsenal are 15th or whatever but NBC has so overinvested in acting like the league is 6 teams and a bunch of chumps to give those teams entertainment in between matches against each other that it now has no choice to sell Arsenal vs Chelsea like a game that matters. Which maybe with fans you could almost do but without anyone in the crowd is just ridiculous to watch.
 
Wolves boss Nuno Espirito Santo tells BBC Sport: "Football is a physical game, a game of contact and referees taking the decisions and being fair but the referee is not good enough to whistle, Lee Mason is not good enough.

"The way he handles the game, it is about the major, crucial decisions, it is about how he handles the players, both teams are always arguing the decision. He must improve because the game requires good refereeing and good handling of the game so the players can perform.

"It is his job, he has to improve, he has to get better. When we saw the nomination, we did not understand it because he is a point of distraction. He worsens the flow of the game."
Good to see somone finally call this fat mess out. Easily the worst ref in the league.
 
Mate I could see the manager and 3 or 4 players going at once to make Mendes an absolute fortune and them getting relegated. I see them as a time bomb
Nuno: Lee Mason is not good enough. He is just not good enough.
Well we know that already obv, but it’s very unlike Nuno to criticise a referee so openly.
 
Good to see Chelski sharpening their attacking ability for their next Prem game against Arsenal. Arsenal Fan TV members will be sitting on buckets watching that game ready to crap themselves... ;)
 
The problem is they still have three DMs on the pitch. They're going for it because they have to but he hasn't put on actual attackers to take advantage of the pressure. Which is ultimately him being too cautious.
They don’t have any attackers! The squad is thinner than Kate Moss after a month of laxatives and celery sticks!

He didn't get Yarmolenko or Snodgrass on in favor of having Noble, Rice and Soucek all complete 90 minutes when they went behind in the first ten. I'm not hearing any excuses tonight. That was as negative as it gets and he fully deserved his 3-0 defeat.

It was there for West Ham too. Chelsea were poor for a long stretch.

Yarmalenko and Snodgrass are bench players. Would you drop Bowen, one of their best players, for him?

The problem they have is they have lost a number of key players. They pretty much have a decent 11 and no depth.

The gap between us and West Ham is a gulf in terms of squad depth. It is even more so for them and Chelsea. They were fighting relegation last season, so they are doing pretty well.

Just cos Lampard is the manager, it doesn’t make Chelsea pushovers. They have a lot of quality. The same with Man Utd and Ole. They have good players capable of papering over the deficiencies in the management.

I'm not saying start them. I'm saying when I'm 1-0 and have been for 55 minutes and there are 65 minutes on the clock total I'd put someone on instead of continuing to have Mark Noble playing as the #10. It was entirely too negative and they could have gotten back in the game if Moyes went for it. He was cautious instead.
