Just admitting you would rather protect a colleague than honour the rules and professionally ref a game fairly. Absolute joke.
Mike “ManYoo” Dean
Unless it applies to though , and you'll protect anyone you like
The logic doesn't even track, if he wanted to protect his "mate", he should've sent Taylor to the monitor so he could rectify a clear mistake and that would've been the end of it. What he did made zero sense whichever angle you look at it.
Isn't it the same thing if a player professionally fouls to protect the team, & doesn't honour the rules?
@@r4h4al no it's not the same at all
The scariest thing that came from this was Mike Dean saying he’s coaching new referees
The PGMOL needs to be disbanded.
future younger mini mike deans to be petrified of
👍🏾
Y the hell his license not suspended?
It needs to be
Corruption at its finest
How can you even make mistakes when you're sitting there watching the replays over and over. It's so obvious to everyone else
Cos they're not mistakes. He is admitting knowing in the moment what he should have done, and choosing to do something else. It would be naive to think this is the first time
but it's not a mistake he made a conscious decision not to tell Taylor it was a penalty and a red that's cheating my friend not a mistake
🤑🤑🤑
@@p-money33Exactly. See how he brushes off Tuchel getting sacked. He puts his mates ahead of integrity. I just watched United and Forest and looking at the red card and penalty, I feel these guys called refs are there for their own interests
Did you not watch the interview ? He did it on purpose.
Independent investigation into the PGMOL asap. Not fit for purpose.
He's already retired so not much they can do
100%, they’re an absolute disgrace and massive “mistakes” like this go unpunished every single week
@@georges4835he isn’t, he still does the VAR
@@barry4649he is retired. He retired because he didnt want to do VAR.
He works for Sky now.
Referees in this country aren't fit for purpose
I’d say corruption sold as incompetence is the real problem. There’s no way the best referees for the biggest sporting league in the world can be this bad if they’re actually the best available for the job
I’ll wait for you to go out and give it a go then
At the end of the day that's costing Teams points and at most can get relegated over protecting a "mate" 😡
Yeah, protecting his mate when that protection will obviously get him more abuse screams of a lie
What's the difference to Roy Keane selecting full MU team in a greatest LIV and MU team he openly admits he wouldn't betray a lad and will always have his mates backs. Refs got the same culture it's them against everyone to get through a toxic and negative job role on a Saturday afternoon. It's unprofessional of him to refer to his colleagues as mates but understandable.
Are you joking? The difference is the segment Roy is doing is just for fun, the referees doing that costs peoples jobs
@@EKensaiRoy Keane picking a team full of united players in a combined 11 vs an official not doing his job protecting his mate & costing a team 2 points. It’s incomparable
@@JordiBoy_Chelsea were up 2-1 at that point and spurs were allowed to retake the corner which resulted in a goal. If the right call was made, be it a foul or a pen, it would’ve at least been Chelsea’s ball either way and we would’ve won the game.
Disgrace. Lifetime ban from football and immediate investigation required. Sky should cut all ties and never work with him again
Stop being so dramatic. Cantona literally assaulted a fan and never got a lifetime ban. Zidane headbutted an opponent and never got a lifetime ban
Why would sky get rid of him when he's bringing in new viewers ?
@@Camden0800 very different situations and I would argue those were insufficiently punished anyway. A closer (but not direct) comparison is Tim Donaghy who served prison time and was banned from the nba after admitting spot fixing certain decisions in nba games.
@@p-money33 nah mate, the NBA situation was criminal because money and betting was involved. This is poor judgement...that's it.
@@p-money33 but this isn’t match fixing. Therefore that argument doesn’t work
Arsene Wenger was right about Mike Dean
His admission has been obvious from the very start of VAR. They all feel threatened and embarrassed by VAR, they don't view it as a tool for them to use to find the right decision. They view it as a threat to their jobs and status, an indictment of their abilities.
Listen to the podcast mate. He's openly said that referring is going in a positive direction its better for the game it just wasn't for him being in the VAR room.
And honestly that's dumb to think that. As just a fan, IDK how the officials get it right on the pitch ad much as they do. Seeing things that happen in a split second and getting it even 75% right is quite frankly amazing. VAR is there to help you with the rest. I don't get upset at an official that doesn't get it right on the pitch. But when another official has access to the replay and can't even get clear and objective calls right, that ticks me off.
But ironically if they used it as intended then thered be no issues. Human error happens as we all know, but then being able to go back and correct a mostake but no, They dont.
Exactly! Why does Dean think sending him to the screen is an insult? How is he “helping” the ref by not sending him over?
@@EKensaibecause he's incapable of pointing out other refs missed something because they all see it as a personal attack on thier abilities.
Match fixing. Simple as that. Didn’t hear him say a thing the day after the match. No refund for Tuchel or Contes 50 grand fines. No apologies for being suspended for a match incorrectly. Utter incompetence.
100%, that could’ve cost one of the clubs millions based off it impacting where they finished
Absolute
Baldy must have been gambling on tottenham
@@barry4649only Chelsea would’ve been affected by it and they would’ve finished 11th instead of 12th that’s something that this game directly impacted as a definite, with football tho we’ve seen it so many times a team has bad luck gets a good result and then roll on from there yes Chelsea was awful last season but who’s to say they wouldn’t have had a bounce back after beating a local rival?
@@Lfceva well I’d say with almost certainty that not winning that game cost Thomas Tuchel his job and I am certain we’d have done much better with him still in charge than Potter
How the hell they didn't sack him immediately is beyond me. This program has gone to the dogs this season.
Cos they’re probably in on it aswell. Why do you think none of these poor ref decisions haven’t been overruled yet? Because they’re applying what Mike dean said about “constantly sending them over will make it look like he’s having a nightmare” even more than last season. So basically any clear pen that’s not given is likely to stay not given and vice versa. They’ll do anything to protect their mates
*programme
If they sacked him, then they wouldn't be looking out for their mate and we now know that is the number one mission of the PGMOL. Protect your mates first, officiate the rules of the game second.
The entire organization needs to be restructured, bring in some talent from other countries and have them run the system.
👍🏾
Have u ever tried reffing?
How isn't pulling someone over by the hair a violent act ? Also the backtracking in what he said is now ridiculous.
Exactly, if you pull someone’s shirt or a body part it’s a foul why isn’t someone’s hair
@@user39265 According to the rules pulling someones hair is a foul is exactly the same as pulling someones shirt, it isn't considered a violent act though.
We may not like it, but that is what the rules currently say
@@ultrademigod Yeah but it’s still a foul and should give a free kick to the opposition
Well, what's the difference in pulling someone's hair, & pulling someone's shirt?
@@r4h4alhair is physically part of someone. A shirt is not.
His indignation is staggering.
The way he talks and carries himself as well. Yet he's supposed to be the authority figure on the pitch? Give me a break.
You heard it here first, VAR is to look after the referee on the pitch not to get the correct result
They spent millions on a spa for old men, the VAR decisions are secondary
Exactly. When he said the Liverpool Macalister wasn’t a red because he can see why the ref gave it in real time. That’s not what it’s there for. You’re supposed to watch the replay not just protect the on field ref. Appalling.
👍🏾
i think he is lying. this one cannot go down as a mistake. it was shocking.
He’s trying to back out of it but still can’t say why he didn’t send him to the screen.
U speculate
@@michaelwallden7261 no. i think.
Absolute corruption
Then he would have no need to come out and admit it. Humans are humans, they make mistakes. It's that simple. His honesty is actually admirable
‘If I say colleague it’s not an issue is it’
Of course it is, what are you on about Mike dean. If you knowingly make a wrong decision to protect a ‘colleague’ that’s barely any different imho.
@@robbo512 yeah and it’s weird he tries to compare it to footballers doing stuff to protect their teammates… I mean if a player intentionally did something that would lessen the chance of his team winning just to ‘protect’ one of his teammates from embarrassment, then that would also be very wrong and I’m sure his manager would be furious.
They’re there to do a job, and for the referees that is to officiate the game and make the right decisions. Letting protecting your colleagues get in the way of that is surely not right, but throughout this video Mike dean seemed to not have much of a problem with it 🤔
Tbh I hope more come out and say this sort of stuff just so it can be more open and we can see the truth behind decisions. I still firmly believe all VAR communications should be broadcast, I can’t really think of a good reason against it. It would at least make us see the reasoning behind each decision even if we don’t agree with it. Because at times people are left wondering just how they have arrived at certain decisions.
@Drenwickification there's plenty of times players do things and other players back them but privately would disagree its called being united as a team. Mike has pointed out that he addressed it privately and Mr Antony Taylor told him he was wrong.
If you watched his actual full podcast with Mr Jordan you will see Mike Dean found it difficult the introduction of VAR and ultimately decided he couldn't do it and retired. He's said that the full communication is coming 100 percent referring is changing and for the better he even said this.
I don't think at any point Mike's said he is happy with the decision he made. All this uproar, for a man that is like anyone else made a human mistake and admitted his errors being roasted for it.
The Mike Dean Show… yet again!
He has totally undermined himself and made himself look like a fool. At least he is centre of attention though hey.
Literally, didn't have to come back on this type of platform
@@thatheat1914 was always anti-NUFC
He just loves being the centre of attention.
Mike Dean is an absolute disgrace and failed in his duty. Shame on Sky for for continuing to line his pocket.
👍🏾
"You don't want to send the guy over to the screen 5, 6, 7 times a game. It just looks like the ref is having an absolute nightmare" Terrible excuse. If the ref's having a mare of a game that's on him. You send him over to the screen as much as you have to.
Exactly mate I’ve been saying this for ages, just send the ref to the monitor
This is where his defence falls apart imo. You can in a way feel for him if he’s saying he wasn’t good at the job and that was the problem (albeit it still throws the system into complete doubt). But he’s basically said there that VAR is gonna protect the ref over actually refereeing the game properly proves it’s a disgrace. It pretty much contradicts everything he’s said in his defence, and implying he’s just trying to make excuses (which refs love to do when justifying decisions btw)
No, you overrule the ref when it's blatantly obvious.
You only send the ref to the screen when you're unsure yourself, and want a second opinion (even though you have 6 or 7 other people to consult with in the VAR room).
Pure fiddle, simple as. Dean full of it.
Need to sack the lot and start from scratch
Mates,colleagues, call it whatever you want it’s totally unacceptable. You can’t put a value on 3 points. Who know what would’ve happened had Chelsea won that game
They would have finished 10th.
They'd have finished 11th instead of 12th.
As a footie fan, i never viewed VAR as something that makes a ref look bad. Rather, its just a tool to improve the game. It's interesting that the refs see it as something else.
Exactlyyy what I thought. We all can see the replay. If the ref makes a wrong call and correct himself with VAR, I dont see anything wrong at all. Its all about getting the right decision
The fact that the refs view it as something else makes me all the more for it. Unfortunately, you kinda need the refs to implement the VAR.
Cause they’re insecure
why are they letting him off so lightly he has just admitted cheating he's a disgrace premier league need an investigation into the running of var and dean should be sacked by sky
The fact that even Tottenham fans (who benefited from the decision) found this ridiculous says a lot about how bad the situation is. We need a serious investigation into the referees and the key errors they make, whilst they don't deserve abuse, they definitely need to stop being protected every time they make an awful call.
Your job is to correct mistakes, not to protect your 'mates'.
Just looking at it from a purely monetary perspective what he has admitted to doing cost the club millions, it contributed to tuchel losing his job that was the start of things going poorly for chelsea, and fans lost millions those who bet on the game. Hes talking like he was refereeing some sunday league game and a three week suspension is fine. What he did was not a mistake it was intentional. What he did should be viewed on the same level as match fixing.
Match fixing is premeditated for personal gain, knowingly making an incorrect decision to potentially take some heat off of a colleague (taking him at his word) is nowhere near as malicious, to claim the two are equivalent and should be punished in the same way is ignorant and reactionary.
That being said, the sheer number of questionable decisions which seem to be made each week does lead me to think that an independent review of the entire refereeing body and their processes is definitely warranted to ensure that there is no malicious intent when those questionable decisions are made.
Lol that didn't contribute to tuchels dismissal. Chelsea had a right mare last season even with tuchel. Yeah it won't have helped but Chelsea shouldve been more clinical in that game. But everyone saying it contributed to him losing his job are living in cloud cuckoo land
Shut man, a red card doesn’t suddenly make his team good 😂
@@billybobthornton9668yeah your right, they need to have a complete separation between on field officials and var officials to remove the potential of "favoritism" in attempts to protect colleagues. I wouldn't call it match fixing either but its still manipulation of a result by not following the integrity and rules put to them. He keeps saying If I hadn't of said friend or mate and just colleague it would have been forgotten about which is him trying to deflect responsibility of his inaction, still gives VAR a bad look and will 100% make all previous questionable decisions be looked at with even more distrust.
Finally….. Mike Dean is the soul reason for Chelsea’s demise.
I can sleep easy
"saying I've not sent him over to the screen because he's a mate is an absolute farce"
Nah pal it's literally what you said.
They probably went to dinner together later
He thinks we'd just take his word for it..not take his other words for it 😂
He loves it. Loves all the attention
All he says it’s my mistake it’s my mistake but absolutely no accountability total corruption
Saying my mistake is quite literally taking accountability.
@@Kuziph your comment is funny
@@Kuziph so it's fine then? everything worked out, now? we lost Tuchel because of this, 100%
I didn't hear an apology anywhere in what he said.
The book stops with me. Easy to say that now when he's no longer working as a ref and can't be held accountable. He was so infuriatingly dismissive.
I'm afraid formal action against him is what's needed, not just a quizing on Sky Sports.
they need to gut the ref system and start again its a disgrace
100%, and I’m just waiting for them to be investigated because I can’t believe they can be this bad even with technology helping them see blatant decisions over and over week in week out, and the referees never getting punished for their actions. I mean Thomas Tuchel had to pay a 50 grand fine after this game for calling out the referees for this mistake but Dean didn’t come out then, he instead let him pay the fine and then came out when the incident was out of sight out of mind
One of the cringe moments is when he says. "You wanna look after your mates and you don't want to send them over to the screen 5 or 6 times and make him look like he had a bad game." Protecting the image of the ref should never factor into it. Only getting the calls right matters, even if that means 5 or 6 trips to the monitor.
He didn't make a mistake. He made a conscious decision at the time. He knew he should have referred it and decided not to.
They did not grill him
In fact it was the opposite
He lied his way through without being questioned properly
"pulling someone's hair isn't violent conduct" and only Mike Dean knows that himself 🧑🏻🦲
Why is nobody asking the most important question, how many var decisions across the league over the years have been purposely ignored?? cos they don’t want refs getting pressured isn’t that influencing the outcome of a game the same way footballers arnt allowed to bet on games 🤔
match fixing i believe
You heard Dean, favours for mates, everyone has mates so plenty of favours, no wonder there's so many bizarre inconsistent decisions.
"You don't wanna send the guy to the screen 5-6 times a game, looks like he's having a nightmare"
One has to wonder how many of the VAR Refs have this same mentality, trying not to make their mates look bad instead of taking the correct decision
Like he was pulling his hair, that's a red for anyone with eyes who has seen a rulebook and I don't support either team. Doesn't matter if he gave out 8 yellows already or not, enforce the rules and do it consistently. No excuses
A ref saying what we all knew. VAR isnt the issue. Its the officials who werent good enough pre VAR aren't good enough post VAR.
How can cricket get DRS so right but football get VAR so wrong?
Too many grey areas still when it comes to football rules
@@chrismcmurtry935 Indeed, cricket is also a stop/start game that lends itself to set pieces.
@@chrismcmurtry935 Cricket has grey areas too. But they just call them "Umpire's Decision" and stick with the original call.
For example, this could be used for offsides. Instead of spending 5+ mins working out a toe over the line, use a thicker line and if both players are on the line, stick with the original decision..
@@Richard3261 yeah I agree for offsides but the problem comes in with handballs for penalties which seems to change game by game for what the ref will give or not, or how much contact when a player goes down in the penalty area, every weekend there's a controversial decision, which is not the case with cricket, but definitely could be more efficient with offsides
@@Richard3261 but also offside, as annoying as the line drawing is, there is no debate, it's all the contentious handballs, diving, was the defender too close when the ball struck him in the hand, I think that's why it took so long for VAR to be introduced because it just makes more of a mess, too much left up to interpretation
the whole point of VAR is meant to clear the lines of on pitch decisions, there needs to be a complete separation between the two. He's admitted to manipulating the result of a game to protect a "colleague"
These referees are an absolute disgrace.
As usual it's all about Dean as it always was when he refereed
Mike “ManYoo” Dean
Need to start an investigation into the referees and officials. They are costing so many teams with blatantly wrong decisions and they face no repercussions other than a few days off.
IMO This admission is criminal and it really undermines the integrity of the game. Tuchel lost the plot in that game and he was out of a job shortly after. Mike Dean had a history with Tuchel.
He should go into hiding. None of the points he made justify why he made that decision. Referees are there to officiate the game. Nothing else.
The players are the stars of the show. This screams of arrogance and ego from the referees side.
When you have the ability to look back at the decision: multiple times, you should never get the Decision wrong.
We need to interview refs after every game. Especially after controversial decisions made.
Reminds me of the Spanish ref at the World Cup with Argentina-Netherlands. Very clearly wanted to be the star of the show and overshadow other players such as Messi and VVD on the pitch. The fact both countries after demanded he got sent home from the tournament and not officiate a match of such magnitude spoke volumes.
The way he is talking about protecting his colleagues, it feels like football has become a game between 3 teams
VAR should be completely independent from the referee group. Should be an independent body who has a 100% objective view.
No! Your job is not to look out for your colleague in the middle. Your job is to get the calls right. As a professional, getting the call right is of the utmost priority, not protecting your colleagues. Just because Taylor screwed up, doesn’t mean you need to screw up too. As the VAR, you’re supposed to be the guarantee, to make sure you get the calls that the referee missed. This is an absolutely nonsensical explanation.
I cannot believe he’s admitting this. How confident do you have to be in the absolute state of the FA to know you can say this and face no repercussions? Unbelievable.
This is a point that no one is highlighting. He’s openly admitted to purposely cheat a team. And he sounds so nonchalant in doing so. No one in the FA to come out and punish this guy.
Players now can’t talk to a ref now without facing a fine or a booking. But refs can get away w openly cheating. Refs trying to make it about themselves.
“I was sidelined for 3-4weeks and that is it”
So that is the best punishment?
Costing teams points?
This is why Fifa overlook English referees 😢
It's bizarre to not want to send the ref to the screen when a foul has been missed. There shouldn't be a culture that the ref looks bad if he's having to go the the screen a lot, where did that even come from? I think VAR gets a hard rap sometimes when decisions are debatable but grabbing someone by the hair and pulling them to the ground is about as clear cut as it gets.
Why does he keep saying ‘the buck stops with me’. WE KNOW THE BUCK STOPS WITH YOU MIKE! That’s why everyone is so angry, because you made this huge error and your reasoning for it is unacceptable. Once again he seems far more concerned with protecting his colleagues than saying that these kind of mistakes are going to stop 💀
Mike Dean will never miss an opportunity to promote Mike Dean. Its well known within football that he always tried to make it all about him.
The fact that he could come on here and repeat it again like it’s nothing…. Damn !
He have now created a big worm hole around the integrity in the game and should be investigated by the FA......
Love how open he is about it, no emotions 😂😂😂
Saying your biased and incompetent without saying your biased and incompetent
How do they get away with this surely there’s someone higher than these stupid officials and put a stop to it
Mike Riley used to be head of the PGMOL. 🤣
Tuchel got suspended for 2 games after that game , that win could of changed the whole dynamic of Chelsea , would they have made top 4 prolly not , but Chelsea literally spiraled after that game
Right? All because Anthony Taylor is a friend 🙄 He's another referee that needs to go. He's often caused problems for Chelsea.
Even his attitude answering the questions man. So smug and is defensive until their question is direct.
Says he didn’t like being a VAR and was petrified sometimes? He’s cost teams points. End of. This should be career-ending.
Rather protect colleagues than make the correct decision. The whole Premier League refereeing system needs a big overhaul. Decisions consistently being incorrect and having multimillion pounds of ramifications for clubs
This is why we should be allowed to hear what’s going on in the VAR room when they’re reviewing decisions
What a thoroughly awful man. I don't know how it's possible to make that mistake. And to pretend that was a "grilling" is laughable.
Focusing on the "friend" part being the big thing when that wasn't it at all... It's the flat out refusal to send a ref to the screen for any reason other than a mistake not being made.
That foul on Cucurella is about as clear as it gets.
I hope Chelsea can protest about having there 2 officiating their matches in the future.
No matter if it’s mates or not mates or whether it’s colleagues you are meant to be impartial and you’re meant to do your job no matter what, not because you feel sorry for the person.
‘Best league in the world with the worst officials in the world’ thanks for the confirmation of that quote Mike Dean
Confirmed my suspicions over the past year. Chelsea were well and truly cheated out of this game, they’ve been getting referee and VAR decisions go against them for years.
Me too, i even remember thiago silva getting armed across the back of the head from that West Ham striker anthony, i think is his name that wasnt blown either
Not true with Chelsea being cheated out of VAR. No doubt the big clubs get far more decisions than the small clubs, Chelsea may have lost out in that game but they arent the losers in the big picture. Its the little clubs in the prem who lose out
@@benhesford175 shall I remind you of the game against united at the bridge where maguire clearly kicked batshuayi and got away with it and then a goal ruled out for nothing?
Remember that match clearly, The refereeing was clearly a joke and its baffling how they can never admit fully to an obvious and ugly error (maybe it was malicious even)
He honestly STILL just said he doesn't think pulling him by his hair is violent conduct....
If I said Colleague it wouldn't have been a big deal ? That doesn't matter you doughnut. You put the feelings of a colleague OVER the integrity of the game.
He doesnt know even what he is saying. What a shame.
That game had a huge negative impact on Chelsea last season. Had the game been won, a lot of thing would have gone right for Chelsea
"to protect the referee" this is an admission to purposefully making the wrong call. But its still not the full truth because the worst that could have happened is the ref would've had to look at screen.. He seems to show a consistent pattern of trying to deliberately "misinterpret" actions on the pitch in Chelsea games.
A criminal investigation needs to be carried out.
He needs to be sent to prison for at least 3years as it cost Chelsea all 3 points.
He said in the podcast that he missed the incident.
Pep Guardiolas Barcelona were caught red-handed paying off the Refs association in Spain in a recent investigation. We've all had our suspicions about City and the leniency they recieve for clear yellow card and even red card fouls. With this now coming to light, would it be fair to ask for an independent investigation into Pep Guardiola's City?
I’d rather a ref review 10 decisions than get 10 big decisions wrong.
Woah! “You don’t want to send the ref to the monitor seven or eight times in a game”. If you judge each and every incident on its merit, you send the ref to the monitor as often as you feel he needs to go to the monitor. Whether that’s once, twice or a hundred times.
Always liked being centre of attention when he was a ref and now us again. I bet Dean is loving this. Disgraceful!
Is this guy serious? Did this guy hear himself
It might sound a little crazy for him but if he sent his mate over to the VAR screen, he’d have actually helped his mate who missed the hair pull and would go on to surely make the right decision.
he is so proud of acknowledging mistakes lol
He claims out of context. He’s there to do a job, not look after the referee or his colleagues. Very wrong what he did.

Please don’t let him “coach” other refs.
But Mike...where does the buck stop?
So it’s ok for clubs to have points being dropped for clear and obvious but u think apologising is enough and it’s still not getting better
He still hasn’t apologised to the club
He nearly slipped up and said MATE but realised 😂😂😂
Very honest, gotta respect him for that
The fact he shows absolutely no remorse and is so nonchalant about the blatant corruption he admitted to is a disgrace
Sky should never use him again. Absolute disgrace of a human being
Fair play for his honesty. Brutal and wrong like but at least he told the public.
In reality, we all know it happens.
Regardless of how many times you have to send them to screen, it should be done
He actually thought the macallister tackle was a red, and its intresting he brought that up because that is the exact same situation as this, clear error that stood because var didnt get involved, got overturned immediately after the game, sack the lot of them and have them finacially investigated, match fixing is blatant at this point.
It’s not good enough, that’s not an explanation for not sending him over, it’s effectively match-fixing, it’s irrelevant how the ref looks, if he has missed it then he can go to the screen 40 times as long as he gets every decision right from it then no one can complain, always been a bunch of wronguns and none of that will change unless they have an overhaul of the referees
Poor Mike Dean having to cope with all this attention.
He keeps calling Anthony Taylor ugly enough. He's adding insult to injury at this point
They put players and managers under the microscope. Players and managers cant even have privacy outside of the sport and yet these refs are required to not publicly discuss their mistakes and decision making in the open.
