Thanks, Jose:

You do know they compile reports after each game, right?
What's that got to do with the price of fish?
I shudder to think what else your search turned up...
Can someone explain to me the logic of why the VAR official gets to overturn Moss’ (incorrect) decision on the Kane no-penalty without asking Moss’ opinion but doesn’t get to do the same for Moss’ (incorrect) decision on the foul on Hojbjerg?
edit: oh jeez was it Graham not Moss? Sorry if I impugned the wrong guy.

I'd love to see what that report says.
Well, to be fair, everyone else gets paid a metric shit ton of money to face the music.
No Dele, no Berj, no Winks, no Sanchez = WIN...Do you guys see the common denominator? Could have been better and we should step through the gears more. But yeah, typical Mourinho's game...saw lots of this under Chelsea.
Think somebody has been at his 'wiki'...
The VAR makes the ruling on offsides, and when something is pretty obvious. On the other hand, the VAR calls the referee on OFR (on field review) when they consider that there was an obvious missplay from the referee. Then its up to the referee to review the decision and make a call. Brittish referees are horrible. They have really low understanding of the rules of the game and they are poor when they should have personal judgement.
Clattenberg was good enough, Attkinson average, and from the younger generation, Oliver is quite good.
Points is where it's at come the end of the season.
We know Ali Gold is always overly generous with his player ratings, so here's the real deal for the crap we've just watched.
Hugo - 5
Didn't have much to do despite all the Brighton possession, but nearly gifted Welbeck the equalizer when he dropped Gross' cross at the end.
Doherty - 2
Poor defensively, inexistant offensively. Lucky the ref didn't blow for a pen in the first half when he stupidly pulled Trossard. Makes you want Serge back, that says it all.
Toby - 6
Gets an extra point for that great diagonal to Reg on Bale's goal. Not really troubled defensively but must be far more vocal when the team is struggling.
Dier - 6
Couple passes went awol but other than that he did well. Same as with Toby, though - must hear him more when the rest of the team isnt working hard enough.
*CBs helped by Brighton not playing with a real CF for 75+ mins
Reguilon - 5
Extra point for that dribble & right-footed cross for Bale's winner. Didn't produce much quality otherwise and too troubled defensively by Lallana but mainly Lampey.
Hojberg - 7
Very unlucky that the ref was a moronic cheating cunt. Solid first half, but faded in the second. Still one of the best players out there. Hardest worker for sure.
Sissoko - 6
If only he had a football IQ, at least when it comes to knowing what to do when in possession. But defensively strong. Some timely interceptions, some strong tackles.
Tanguy - 5
Didn't see the ball in the first half but that wasn't his doing. So did what he could and helped the team with his pressing and tackling. Maybe a No 8 more than a No 10?
Son - 2
Not his night. At all. Enough said. At least, unlike Doherty, this isn't a habit for him.
Lamela - 5
Typical Coco. Can produce the great like his shot that hits the post, but can also bring the stupid like that free kick at the end of the first half. Fought hard, as ever.
Kane - 6
Scored a brilliant pen, but really should've scored that tap-in as opposed to hitting the post. Dropped too deep too often, but had no choice. Good defensive headers.
//Subs//
Bale - 6
That winning goal. Period.

Ah shit here we go again! Time to see what this team is made of!Win our next game and we are top in our own right!!!!!!
For at least 2 hours......
But if Liverpool and Man City draw then we'll be top going into the international break!!!!
Wouldn't give up on Berg just yet, he showed promise in early days. But the other 3, yeah, doubt they'll improve from here on in.
Has anyone ever seen these reports outside of the referees good old boys network?
Reports are worthless if they cant be scrutinised.
In Norfolk.
