so no foul or red card for Arsenal after that 2 footed lunge on Pieters? if it was a Chelsea player the referee would not have hesitated, no consistency whatsoever from the refs, what a joke.

There were some ridiculous unpunished tackles in the Southampton-West Ham match as well. I don't know what's going on, but I've never seen Premier League referees this inconsistent before.

The FA need to bring all of their Premier League referees in and find a way to be more consistent. One of the problems is the rules are so dependent on the referees interpretation, it's bound to be inconsistent. The biggest issue with that is the FA is scared to take retroactive action for fear of undermining their referees. Makes no sense.

the FA is a joke, you can get sent off and banned for whistling or clapping to the referee and yet get away with murder on the pitch for a dangerous tackle, the referee standards are pretty low it must be said, too much inconsistency. Maybe the league should consider VAR as an option for referees

Chill guys. UTD have easy fixtures but also its only beginning. In past two season, City had great starts but how they ended everyone knows. After January we can start telling who is going to win league.
