Willian's sending off was ridiculous.
I hate Mourinho but he did fuck all wrong there.
The decisions were wrong, apart from that shocking stamp, but it shows again the absurdity of the myth of Mourinho as this very clever guy. If he hadn't been prancing around non-stop like some loon at a PETA protest he wouldn't have given the ref an excuse. Then he does a Ginsoak style smear in his post match interview, claiming the ref was unfair 'but he knew what he was doing right from the start'. Far from being the master psychologist of the hacks' fantasy he's actually about as crafty as Neil Warnock when it comes to things outside of on-pitch tactics.

In the interview after Mourinho implied the ref was bent, then claimed he wasn't going to say anything in case he got fined. He should get fined anyway for that!

Again people see his second yellow (1st was clear-cut) as dubious. However it's not. Week-in week-out players are booked for pulling back or bring down players in 'sprint mode'. We more often see it on the wing though and it brings a yellow virtually every time, the refs clearly have instructions and it's good there is consistency. Delph was clearly running hard at the Chelsea defence and Willian brought him down 'hands-on' so though not a bad tackle/foul it was a bookable offence no matter how soft.
