       Nope. Still poor.

       Not sure why you think he was 'still poor'. A mixed bag, yes,
       but the early and costly (for Liverpool) caution of Van Dijk was
       found to be correct iro the follow-through, despite the howls of
       protest from the Liverpool management and fans, and the
       subsequent caution of Koulibaly was also correct for the same
       reason. Tendency to be fussy but that is probably more about
       refereeing in European competitions than anything else. I could
       not see much wrong with Skomina in what proved to be an exciting
       game and I would be interested to see some evidence for your
       view, Matt.

       I wasn't too impressed with Skomina either last night, although
       he was certainly better than in the Man City game earlier in the
       season!
       There just seemed quite a few minor decisions which he got wrong
       or didn't seem certain about.
       An underwhelming performance I would say - and I'm normally a
       fan.

       Some dire decisions from A Kulbakou in the Galatasaray v Porto
       game on Tuesday night. Three penalties, the first two of which
       were clear dives (the first in particular being embarrassing)
       and a handball on the line being missed. Kulbakou should take a
       leaf out of Paul Tierney's book in spotting and punishing dives
       at The Emirates last weekend  :-[ :-[

       Looked like Turpin had a very good game in the Ajax V Bayern
       Munich match.

       Interesting first leg appointments. I would expect Brych to get
       the second leg in Paris.
       Important observer for Makkelie.

       Not impressed with the choice of VAR at Old Trafford hopefully
       there will be no need for the VAR

       Marciniak lucky to be involved after some poor performances but
       has an important observer I believe

       I'm not fully convinced by any of this week's appointments to be
       hoenst.
       I don't think that Lahoz is a good appointment for Spurs V
       Dortmund at all. I think both teams play in quite a frenetic,
       high-pressing way so you want an offiical whose style is to let
       the game flow. I think Lahoz is generally just a bit erratic.
       I don't think that Marciniak (or Skomina or Kassai) really
       deserve a knockout stage appointment after some of their
       decisions in the group stage - I know that any referee can make
       a mistake (and I have rated all three very highly at various
       times) but I think it's only fair that the officials who have
       performed best get the knockout stage games and I think there
       are at least a dozen officials more deserving on performances in
       Europe this season.
       I've never really regarded Orsato as one of the big hitters so a
       bit surprised he's got that game - will Rocchi still officiate
       internationally?
       Makkelie is an excellent VAR but not fully sure about him as a
       referee at this level yet - I don't think he was great in the
       England V Spain game.
       I suppose it is a sensible idea though to use officials from
       leagues that use VAR.
