Is this a dig or just a casual statement?
Seen the incident a few times, The refs 100 percent thought… I can’t and don’t want to attempt to keep up with play so he has blown the whistle. Simon Hooper just seems unfit as a referee, he struggles to keep up in games and it effects his decision making.
Why are managers and players not aloud to criticize the referees? What’s the rational behind that?
So he said the Mikel Arteta statement without saying the actual statement and avoided the punishment. Pep might have created a new template here.
Really hope from here on out all instances of shit talking a piss poor ref is just referred to as “doing an Arteta”
I think his reaction would have been very different if they had lost due a decision like that.
