       Mike Dean : Man Utd vs Brighton

       I am one of Mike Dean’s biggest fans ,  IMO I can’t quite put my
       finger on it wasn’t Mike Dean’s usual self , some bizarre
       positioning at corners ( quite near the far post ) played good
       advantages had a good rapport with the players booked Cavani for
       dissent when Fernandes was clearly fouled in the buildup to
       Rashfords equaliser nailed on YC for the Brighton player for
       that foul and 99.9 % of the time would expect Mike Dean to
       produce the YC not sure why he didn’t tonight, one or two other
       soft YC’s aswell

       Until the incidents with Southampton and West Ham I think he had
       been excellent and since his return I don't think he's done much
       wrong either. That said - by his excellent standards those two
       bad KMI errors could be below his usual standard being that it
       is so high.
       Now whether he should retire, personally I feel he has another
       season in him, certainly going by SG1 standards currently I
       don't think he'd be anywhere near the bottom of the merit list.

       That was a bad foul on Fernandes after he'd passed the ball to
       Rashford for United's first goal. Late and reckless. That was
       the sort of incident where you'd expect Mike Dean to correctly
       produce a YC.  Amazed he didn't.
       Apart from being a United fan, I was relieved for Dean's sake
       that VAR didn't advise him to go to the monitor for the
       Maguire/Welbeck incident. Personally, I couldn't see anything in
       it that would have justified a penalty anyway.

       Would have been interesting to see if VAR would have interfered
       if it had been a Brighton defender nudging a Utd player and
       whether in that case it might have suddenly been seen as a clear
       and obvious error. If it had been on Fernandes I am sure he
       would have assisted them in coming to that conclusion!

       Maybe Mike Dean did not see the tackle on Fernandes as he was
       following the ball? VAR couldn't intervene and Dean could only
       punish what he sees clearly and not what he suspects. It
       happens.
       Dean has enough credit to go another year and this season would
       be a poor season to retire given the lack of atmosphere.
       On a practical note, who would replace him? Furthermore I can
       think of a number of poorer officials who should go first.
       However where are the replacements? Madley hot a poor review
       today from some, Jones and others are not getting games. It all
       hints at poor development. Atwell is an example of perseverance,
       giving officials game time and reaping the rewards later.
       Finally we need personalities in the game. Not a reason to keep
       him but something to cherish.

       I'm a big Mike Dean fan. Loves refereeing & never afraid to make
       the big calls. I do think that his judgement is not quite what
       it was & same in this game.
       I think he has a decision to make. Does he quit whilst still "in
       credit" or does he carry on because he wants to? It's admirable
       not to allow a small minority to dictate when you quit & he
       handled the social media abuse very well. Only he will know.
       My view has always been that there should be a compulsory
       retirement age of 48 for top flight referees as it allows
       younger refs more game time at the top level. If older refs
       carry on, the temptation is to give the bigger games to those
       with experience, unless you are ultra talented like Michael
       Oliver.
       I think that the older refs "retired" at 48 can still ref in the
       Football League as long as they pass the fitness & performance
       tests so their knowledge won't be wasted & it will satisfy
       employment law directives as they can still "ply their trade". I
       just feel that if refs pick their own retirement days, many will
       hang on for selfish reasons & this doesn't do them good nor help
       standards in the industry. Lee Mason is a case in point.

       Lee Mason is younger than Dean, Atkinson, Friend, Moss, Scott
       and Marriner so a bit harsh

       From what I saw it looked like a Mike Dean did see itbas he
       signalled advantage when the pass was played
