    Qwiss they do themselves a disservice. They look fucking insane. What’s crazier is equally insane people like Gary Neville will eat this up.

          Every passing day, it’s harder to act like officials don’t have a bitterness towards our organisation. We’ve dealt with shit since Wenger. Don’t know what it was like under Graham. But this isn’t new.

          What’s crazy is you’d think they’d look at the Haaland-Gabriel-MLS relationship and love it. This is mostly good fun. It’s annoying as a fan when you’re on the receiving end, but it’s blockbuster TV. The Klopp-Pep rivalry was a tea and crumpets affair with no adrenaline. This is full blooded stuff like Wenger-Ferguson or Mourinho-Benitez

          Again. They go after silly things like this while the Butcher and Guimaraes are free to attempt amputations on a weekly basis.

            JazzG this is the best thing about Vardy. His mocking celebrations are amazing. When he pretended to be an eagle against Crystal Palace it was so funny.

                God what a joke 😂😂😂 how can they be so precious? I'm sure Haaland really doesn't give a shit. Can't even celebrate goals anymore. I like the Zen celebration had no idea Haaland had a copyright over it and no one else is allowed to do it 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

                Haaland was laughing when Gabriel was shouting at him, he probably loves this shit. Top players thrive from rivalries.

                I loved this whole episode. From Haaland chucking it to Arteta, Gabriel and MLS, to MLS and Gabriel getting payback. It was a great subplot to a growing rivalry. The whole humble thing is one of the best plots I've seen since Kepa refused to come off for Sarri.

                  Here is the official Premier League Twitter page laughing about Maupay and in this clip is him mimicking a celebration.

                  JazzG reading the article it's a nothing story really they may do something okay and they may do nothing. Also the grounds like inciting fans has always been something that could risk punishment

                  Just sky farming engagement stories I don't know why people get so wound up they are there to generate this stuff. Come back when it's a real proposal or they actually have a case they enforce it.

                    So the ref gets the decision wrong, which has been proven by MLS red card being overturned, we react angrily and then get fined on top.

                      I know it doesn’t feel right given we won the appeal, but I still don’t agree with that crowding of the ref, for two reasons. Firstly, he’s never going to change his mind because he has six or seven players shouting in his face. Which leads to the second point, it can only backfire we he takes offence at our (or whoever’s) behaviour. We can’t gain and only lose from those situations.

                      I’d be fully behind refs bring more card happy with yellows and reds on those occasions. Walking the free kick forward ten yards for dissent too. All that of course is predicated on a level of respect between player and referee, one which players don’t have and which referees don’t deserve. So I can’t see any of it changing soon.
