Leroy rips into ref Dean: “That was an utter disgrace”
I just knew that when he took his time to make a decision on the sending off he would get it wrong! Useless…utterly useless. He ruined what was going to be a great game of football.
And as for the second goal – a total and complete shocker. There were three United all standing offside and Dean didn’t think twice about giving the goal.
A child who has just learned the offside rule could have seen at least one of those players was offside, never mind the three but not apparently Dean.
I’ve never liked him as a referee. His looks and glances are all – it seems to me – designed to ensure he looks good in the morning newspapers.
That was one of the worst refereeing performances I can remember seeing and he will deserve ever dreadful headline he should get.
Slaven can be very proud of West Ham – the lads were excellent – and the key moment came when Michail Antonio failed to lift the ball over De Gea with that one on one in the second half.
Had he converted that we might have have had a whole different game on our hands but despite that the Hammers can feel very very proud of their performance.
In the end having only 10 men and United seemingly 12 with the assistance of some totally incompetent reffiing and lining did us in.
Mike Dean should feel totally ashamed of himself.
