And if it is a question of ‘doing whatever it takes’ to win, then how is that different from Sterling’s ‘penalty? I mean seriously…I wish none of it would have happened…I’d rather people played fairly, but let’s not be all one-eyed about it. Or is that all football is? Have I been away from grounds and crowds too long? And why was Tom Cruise there? Was he driving that silly little car at the start? I thought generally the referring and (whisper it) the judicious use of VAR was much better than we have become used to in the Premiership.
