Proof that Mike Dean is an Anti-Arsenal Spud and further proof that Mourinho is a Cnut
Penny for your thoughts? Whatever anyone says about Mike Dean, both reds were reds. Angel Gabriel shouldn’t have let Costa get under his skin and he should have been cleverer about his retribution (talk to Keown) and not undertaken a minor Beckham in front of the ref 2 seconds after getting a yellow. As for Santi’s, […]
