       VAR currently out of action as Stockley Park is evacuated due to
       a fire alarm…

       A clean sheet for Taylor, wasn’t really a testing contest to
       officiate.

       Could have booked a few but decided to manage. Players respected
       that. Very well refereed

       Definitely agree with you there. Two teams that wanted to play a
       good game of football and Taylor didn’t interfere with that.
       Being a Town fan myself he could have easily booked a few of our
       players for some late challenges but kept his cards in his
       pocket and was consistent with that. Top performance for me

       I thought Anthony Taylor had an excellent match. He could have
       found some cautions had he been looking for them ( and I'm sure
       lesser experienced referees would have done so to keep a tight
       grip on the game ) but he clearly had the respect of the players
       and thus he was allowed to officiate in an efficient but relaxed
       way.

       Brooks was very strong by cautioning early on in his game and
       doing this usually calms things down a little.

       How strange to "really hate" a thoroughly accomplished
       refereeing performance that was achieved without resorting to
       frantic card waving at every opportunity.
       To stay in the background and not, for once, making a game all
       about him. Hardly hateful. Anyone who would prefer to see a
       plethora of cards really can't be that keen on football.
       Regarding "the teams due to play next against a player who
       should have been cautioned may have to play against said player
       who should be suspended". Clubs who benefit from playing a match
       against a team with a key player suspended are simply fortunate
       with the way the fixtures pan out. They are probably not one of
       the teams who had been subjected to the player's indiscretions
       and deserve no sympathy in this respect.

       Absolutely… perhaps some of the officials around the circuit who
       resort to the cards so brazenly could do with watching the
       performance of Taylor. A masterclass in how to deal with the
       players appropriately and they responded in kind.
       Taylor certainly isn’t shy to flash the cards as we saw at
       Bournemouth a while back, but you can’t argue that he does get
       the balance right most of the time.
