‘No point watching’, ‘Game lost’ – Many Man City fans rage as PL Confirm Match Officials for Chelsea game

Share

Many Manchester City fans are not pleased with the refereeing appointment for their side’s Premier League clash with Chelsea this weekend.

City have dropped points away to Spurs and at home to Southampton already this season putting plenty of emphasis on their trip to Stamford Bridge, with the Premier League champions arguably unable to afford another loss so early in their title defence.

Pep Guardiola’s side will be aiming to exact revenge after they were frustrated in both the FA Cup semi-final at Wembley and the Champions League Final in Porto against Chelsea, with Manchester City failing to score in both matches. 

So far unsuccessful against Thomas Tuchel’s robust Chelsea side, Manchester City have won just one of their last four meetings with the London club across all competitions.

The Premier League have announced that Michael Oliver will be the referee for Manchester City’s top of the table clash with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Saturday afternoon, and many Sky Blues are not happy.

Oliver, who has branded 12 yellow cards and one red card in just four matches so far this season, is a controversial choice for City fans as he has a habit of reaching into his pocket during City matches in particular.

The referee last took charge of Manchester City last May, when the Pep Guardiola’s side defeated Everton 5-0 on the final day of the 2020/2021 campaign.

We’ve taken a look on social media to judge how Man City fans have reacted to Michael Oliver’s appointment.
