🚨 Patrick Vieira on Ryan Gravenberch receiving a second yellow card after fouling Jérémy Doku.
🗣️“Honestly, I’m starting to believe Manchester City need to be investigated again, because what exactly is going on here? We haven’t even finished discussing the old financial charges, and now we’re watching decisions like this in a game of this magnitude.
How is that challenge worthy of a second yellow card? Gravenberch was having an excellent game, Liverpool were competing with City, and one questionable decision completely changed the direction of the match. Within minutes of his sending-off, City took control and went on to win 3-0.
I’m not saying the referee has been bribed, but the Premier League needs to understand why decisions that can change an entire match are being made so casually. If the referee gets it wrong, there should be accountability, regardless of which club benefits.
And let’s be honest, if this exact decision had gone against Manchester City, their fans would be screaming conspiracy from every corner of the internet.
City fans can celebrate the three points all they want, but don’t expect everyone to ignore the circumstances surrounding this game. When a controversial red card changes everything, people have every right to question the officiating.
Manchester City have already spent years under scrutiny over financial rule breaches. The last thing this league needs is another cloud of suspicion hanging over its biggest decisions. Investigate the officiating, explain the decision, and let the football speak for itself.
Because if this is the standard of refereeing we’re accepting now, what exactly are we supposed to trust?”
