7% win rate when Mike Dean officiates

he takes charge of most of our big games, where we bottle it 93% of the time .

obviously arsenal were hard done by with the costa/gabriel situation, but the officiating was poor all round I thought, where we should have a few free kicks and maybe a pen(maybe). I thought jasper was poor all round.

However as an arsenal fan I would be more concerned with how after the first 10 minutes, chelsea seemed quicker to most balls, won most duels and were quicker and harder into the tackle. Seemed arsenals soft underbelly made an appearance again.

Obviously this fool has an agenda against us. We have gone like 20 games without a win before he reffed the first 5-2 win over Spurs. Martin Tyler said the players were aware of that stat. So for one of our players to give Dean an opportunity to send him off really is inexcusable.

Part of that was down to the fact he'd often ref our "big games" (god knows why he was chosen) and our record in them is pants, but nonetheless it doesn't excuse things like celebrating against us and embarrassingly biased performances like yesterday. He should never ref any of our games ever again. But sadly, unless Wenger resorts to Maureen style moaning about vendettas and terrible officiating against us, nothing will be done. Sometimes Arsenal are just too nice, we'd get away with more if we were complete caants like that blue mob.

To be fair, if you look at most of those games that he's been in charge of, I can't really say there's been too much controversy in the majority of them. Yesterday was just an abomination though, however, Gabriel was an even bigger fool for giving Costa exactly what he was looking for.

The only possible benefit from the whole incident is that referees and match officials will be keeping a very close eye on Diego Costa now for the rest of the season because he should not have got away with what he did yesterday.

they already have been samir, Ill never forget last season when I believe it was at Everton and the player tripped costa from behind as they was waiting for a throw in and the ref booked costa and the lack of penalties hes got despite them being stone wallers.costas a ass hole but he also gets incorrectly carded a lot.

I think you're going to have to accept that, although Costa's aggressive personality on the pitch does have its advantages, he will be subjected to incorrect yellow/red cards as a result of incidents in previous matches where he will be seen as the instigator.

He's anti Arsenal. When in charge for such a high number of games it's something to worry about. Also didn't give Costa red card at city for strangling Zabaleta

If its so then I'll blame Wenger not alerting the players dat Mike Dean was in charge and we needed to thread cautiously

When he celebrated Tottenham's goal against you

Yep it had nothing to do with you not being able to get a shot on target it was all down to Dean.

Man up you pussssies. You are the reason you keep failing. You are weak like your manager and players. Costa didn't force your player to kick him right in front of the ref. Pusssssies.

What about the other player...you had TWO sent off

He already has, never gets penalties of which several have been nailed on. so yesterdays turnaround was a pleasant surprise, he should have possibly had a penalty and Hazard definately should have.
