Of course it would have been to his credit if he had, but I must
have missed the debate after last season's Manchester Derby
criticising Ashley Young for not going up to Martin Atkinson and
saying "Hey ref that was a red card challenge I made on Aguero
in the penalty area, you need to send me off and award a penalty
to City".

What has happened to Kassai?
For a time, he was one of the best referees in Europe but he's
been in decline for so long now. It's quite unusual for a career
to peak so early.
It's a bit sad.

Just seen the supposed second penalty on the highlights.
Sterling was as culpable as his opponent in that incident.

I must have mssed the debate after the previous season's
Manchester Derby criticising Claudio Bravo for not going up to
the referee and saying "Hey ref that was a red card challenge I
made on Rooney in the penalty area, you need to send me off and
award a penalty to United."

Yes, just so; thank you for expanding on my point that if one
player can be criticised for not advising the referee that he
has made an error in his own favour then that should apply to
all players. And for the flattery. Of course if we could all
apply the Corinthian ethos perfectly then we would see an
amazing transformation in the world as a whole. However, we
could muse that that might render referees redundant and
consequently lead to the demise of this forum.
Given that this utopia is unlikely to come about in our lifetime
we should encourage the use of VAR, which would surely have
reversed this decision. If Guardiola is to be believed,
Manchester City are in favour of VAR, unlike some of their
rivals. So perhaps we should direct our dismay at this decision
not at the officials or players but rather at those who are
resisting giving referees the benefits of modern technology to
assist their decision making.

I agree. He hasn't been a top referee for many years now. This
decision is still staggering though.

My initial comment wasn't intended to be a criticism.
However in hindsight he probably wishes he had now because he
would have been world wide now, in a similar fashion to the di
Canio incident when he caught the ball when the goalkeeper was
injured.

Regarding the decision, it is an excellent example to up and
coming officials that it doesn't matter how far behind the quick
break you are, get yourself as wide as possible to give you that
better angle for such a challenge. He remained linear,
therefore didn't give himself that opportunity.
