       Everton v Crystal Palace - Anthony Taylor 
   DIR By: UmpireIan49

       I’ve only just caught brief highlights of this “must win” game
       for Everton and I’ll be interested to know the thoughts of the
       esteemed correspondents on here about the tackle by Palace’s
       Jordan Ayew on Gordon of Everton.
       It was a high, late, scissors type tackle that, for me, should
       have resulted in a dismissal. Anthony Taylor opted for a
       caution, and then checked with the VAR who didn’t see any reason
       for an upgrade to a red card.
       It certainly incensed what was already a febrile home support,
       and I have my own views on Taylor as a referee in the Premier
       League. Here he opted for the safer option of a caution when the
       tackle that was made ought to be outlawed; it was frankly
       dangerous that could have resulted in a very nasty injury for
       the recipient.
       As I say, interesting to find out observations from our learned
       friends on here.

       A great game of football ,armed by disgraceful seems from the
       supporters.
       Anthony Taylor  on the other hand was excellent. Let the game
       flow well but asserted control. The ayew tackle is 50/50 but I
       prefer yellow as I don’t think it was that dangerous really.
       Worth nothing that Calvert Lewin did the exact same thing later
       and didn’t even concede a freekick.
       Overall a great performance

       Anthony Taylor’s judgement of red card challenges is not as good
       as some in the PL. and this is one of the top 2 refs in England
       and top 10 in Europe…

       Premier League refereeing standards are at a very low standard
       atm and it is summed up when one of our supposed elite officials
       can’t recognise that as SFP, a problem that English officials on
       the whole have had for a good few years now which is down to
       rubbish coaching in my opinion and that comes from the top but
       sadly it doesn’t look like that’ll change any time soon.
       I like Anthony Taylor as a referee most of the time and on his
       day he can be world class however it feels like more often than
       not we’re talking about an error from him or him having to go to
       VAR atm as with the missed penalty at West Ham at the wknd and
       the Ayew tackle tonight, these are things an elite official
       should be getting right in my personal opinion.
       Hopefully he can get this bumpy season out the way and hit the
       ground running next season especially with him attending the WC
       later this year.

       100% Red Card all day for me. The "scissors tackle" endangers
       the opponent in my view. Ayew could have broken Gordon's leg.
       Luckily, he didn't.

       I haven't seen the challenged so can't comment on it but I'm
       afraid Gordon has quickly developed a reputation for making the
       most of any challenge on him.

       Anthony has become a good referee but  mentioned  previously
       always has one bad decision in his performance, of which there
       have been a few this season, But to be fair there are other
       Premier League referees who have not identified  red card
       offences. Looking at the season  in general i think there  has
       been some poor performances overall and the standard has
       deteriorated. Thou i am sure Mike Riley would disagree.

       He was really bad at West Ham the other day, probably one of the
       worst performances I've ever seen from him (to be fair he's
       usually solid)
