MattHOST
They also are mortal.
MattHOST
I feel like I have the same referees in my save that I had at the start, and it's like Michael Oliver must be in his 80s by now.
Aaron FaloonHOST
But I guess-
Si MaggioHOST
Yeah
Gareth WheelerHOST
Their rival, when City played in the Champions League Tuesday, United played Thursday.
Gareth WheelerHOST
So two days more rest for Manchester City, as well as the referee appointment for the occasion being Michael Oliver.
Gareth WheelerHOST
When these two teams play and Oliver presides over it, United have won once, City have won six times.
Gareth WheelerHOST
And there's been some controversial moments along the way as well.
Jack CollinsHOST
And Alvaro Carreras was standing on the side waiting to come on for Vinicius Jr.
Jack CollinsHOST
And just Michael Oliver was like, no.
Jack CollinsHOST
You have to come on when the crowd are getting louder and louder and louder.
Jack CollinsHOST
And that was the moment that actually it felt like they got back behind Real Madrid.
The Global MadridistaHOST
Again, the final minute is very uncomfortable.
The Global MadridistaHOST
By the way, Michael Oliver...
The Global MadridistaHOST
I love the refs in the EPL.
The Global MadridistaHOST
I think they're the best refs in Europe, but not Michael Oliver.
The Global MadridistaHOST
I mean, there was one moment where, you know, Vini comes off the pitch and Carreras was supposed to come in, but he let Vini go off the pitch, but he wouldn't let Carreras come in.
The Global MadridistaHOST
So we played there for, I don't know how long it was, maybe a minute or two or something like that with 10 men, and the Bernabeu just went absolutely bananas about that, and I think rightfully so.
The Global MadridistaHOST
Deja o puta! Deja o puta! But yeah, I mean, it's just the EPL is amazing refs.
The Global MadridistaHOST
Michael Oliver is not one of them.
KobeHOST
[cheering] Referee a, ęneɛ yi wɔ gyina kɛn sɛ animu.
KobeHOST
Michael Oliver.
KobeHOST
Wofii England mmemu.
E.K. WallaceHOST
AsmpFM commentary, a mu ntie ho ruff.

KobeHOST
[cheering] Michael Oliver.
KobeHOST
[cheering] W'anoɔ ne de center man, erima saa kɛn sɛ.
KobeHOST
Wɔhye sɛ bi pia abetumi akotote.
NeilHOST
McGinn needs to score that goal, and Emi Buendia needs to score that chance that he has as well.
NeilHOST
Uh, Michael Oliver, I, I, I genuinely am baffled as to how Matty Cash doesn't get a penalty in the box for that blatant push o- on the back.
NeilHOST
If it's out, anywhere outside the field, he gets a, gets a free for it.
NeilHOST
Um, and I think that that's, like, it's 18 months now and Villa are not getting a penalty.
BillyGUEST
Yeah.
BillyGUEST
And on that the other day, I was thinking Michael Oliver is not allowed to referee Newcastle games because he's a Newcastle fan.
BillyGUEST
Well, if he's refereeing a Tottenham game, then are you telling me that he's not going to be slightly biased against Tottenham because he's a Newcastle fan? All of those little tiny things.
RosaHOST
Exactly.
Finley CrebolderNARRATOR
VAR is the star at Craven Cottage.
Finley CrebolderNARRATOR
Both Michael Oliver in the Hull City vs. Aston Villa game and Paul Tierney in the Man City vs. Coventry match had little to concern themselves with over their respective 90-plus minutes, with the officials and their teams in sync throughout play.
Finley CrebolderNARRATOR
Robert Jones produced a flurry of correct yellow cards in the Newcastle vs Bournemouth game, which also included a Marcus Tavernier goal that the Magpies were unhappy about, but VAR Matt Donahue awarded after a check.
Finley CrebolderNARRATOR
Samuel Barrett was in charge of an exciting match at Craven Cottage, as Crystal Palace ran out 3-2 winners, thanks to Ben Chilwell's late goal.
Gavin WallaceHOST
Let's talk about then the refereeing appointments for that.
Gavin WallaceHOST
Michael Oliver at Real Madrid against Inter.
Gavin WallaceHOST
But the VAR for this is Andrew Dallas of Scotland.
Gavin WallaceHOST
Yeah.
Mark ClattenburgGUEST
Jarrod Gillier, who was Australian stroke, now living in England.
Mark ClattenburgGUEST
So there is some very capable VARs.
Mark ClattenburgGUEST
But unless UEFA are saying that these were not available, then it's a big statement that we're now seeing that English VARs are not good enough to work with Michael Oliver.
Mark ClattenburgGUEST
Because what we have to remember, guys...
Ashley YoungPANELIST
But, you know, I, I, I don't think he's gonna give it as a penalty.
Curtis DaviesPANELIST
And it, and it's Michael Oliver's position, I think, is why VAR don't even look at it, because he's right there.
Curtis DaviesPANELIST
He sees it with his own two eyes.
Curtis DaviesPANELIST
They're not gonna try and overrule his decision.
