Grandad is going to get wet in the rain, with preposterous Pep
in his ear for 90 minutes, I couldn't think of anything worse!
Orange over yellow on field is a bmb friendly start!

Thought Andy Madley can be well pleased with his days work

A good display, though would have liked to have seen him be much
stronger on the continual City dissent.
He got the big decisions correct (Walker clearly ran across
Sterling, and should have been booked for his reaction
afterwards).
Rodri should also be charged for his comments after the game.

Thought he was average. My biggest bugbear with him is he is
very centric in his positioning and movement, and always leaves
himself so much to do to get up with play. A few strange
decisions, not least the added time for second half of 4 minutes
despite several stoppages. As you say, he is another referee who
has no ability to deal with continuous City dissent. Very weak
in this area

He has no pace to chase down play exacerbating the issue. An
issue I observed with him before his elevation to PL.

From a City viewpoint thought Mr Madley had a reasonable game,
though wouldn't argue with the above points about positioning
and time-keeping. The latter mitigated by the YC for Chelsea
keeper Petrovic for time-wasting around the hour mark, which did
bring an end to the long-winded goal-kicks. I would like to see
more SG1 officials to clamp down on this earlier.
Mr Madley let a few things go, which didn't come back to bite
him. It felt inconsistent in letting Caceido already on a YC off
without booking for taking a man down on the edge of the
visitors penalty area, yet booking Silva for his first foul, for
what looked like nothing more than a coming together in the
middle of the park.
Haven't seen the VAR incidents again so can't evaluate. Don't
know if something's been lost in translation, but Rodri's
remarks on VAR seemed very strange; having a number of referrals
doesn't guarantee any initial decision will be wrong.

The juxtaposition of the Silva yellow and the non-yellow for the
foul on Rodri as he was carrying the ball into the area did not
suggest a charitable explanation to myself.
Rodri's comments on VAR as I have read are a bit strange.
Comments by those in the know here and elsewhere have led me to
believe that there is no correspondence between VAR and the
on-field officials until any check is complete. This in itself
seems strange as how are VAR supposed to know just what the
referee has or hasn't seen? So perhaps I have misunderstood.
However, apart from when goals are scored or penalties awarded
we, mere watchers on, don't know when a VAR review takes place
(although we do know the circumstances where it cannot take
place.) However, and perhaps this is underlying Rodri's
comments, it does, purely intuitively, seem to me that in recent
weeks the threshold for "clear and obvious" has been raised even
higher leading to even fewer referrals for referees to review
their decision.
All that considered it did seem to me that City's failure to win
was more down to individual errors at both end and tactics that
like JCFC in his recent report left me feeling "the deployment
of the available resources produced a bewildered frown". We
have Foden, in the form of his life playing between the lines in
mid-field, moved out to the right wing whilst then directing
most of our attacking moves down the left wing; strange.

Madley was very very weak on the constant dissent !!! The
mandate is there this season to Card for it in the PL, a ref who
never convinces me on dissent !!
His brother Rob is by far a much better referee.
Other than that a standard job ! But ok
