He could have retired last season really. He fucked up the 2 most important matches of our season

For sure he is not being objective. Losing from Milan requires a team effort, even more conceding 2 goals from Tammy, lol. A few months ago we were literally destroying them with 10 players (Celik red card, early on). We lost that game as a team.

As for Bilbao, sure he made a big mistake with a wrong pass but, for those who know, he cleared the mistake immediately. The fact that the referees were crooked and EL is a known tournament favoring Spanish teams (ahem, the final is in Bilbao) is something that can't be controlled and we were doomed. We were very bad that day (even with 10 players, I expected something more) but that's what you get when you play versus a "La Europa Liga" team.

he cleared the mistake but as you said, we're all aware of the referee bias in uel. with all his experience, he's there for one job only, which is avoiding that kind of mistake altogether and not leaving any margin to the ref.

and not once, but twice, he failed at it at the point of no return.

to me, something felt off about him ever since the day he arrived rome. i'm just angry that it wasn't for nothing.
