Any reason for Kavanagh and Marriner swapping.

Maybe they wanted a more experienced VAR on the Man City game?

fun if the mill indeed!

I'd agree Manchester Untied V Arsenal is not the fixture it once was. I'd have rather it went to one of the up and coming referees personally rather than Friend.

Am I right in thinking that Kavanagh has yet to referee Man City or Man Utd, even though he has been a Fourth Official/VAR on several of their matches? I wonder if the situation is similar to Mike Dean with Liverpool/Everton who has been FO and a VAR for their games over recent years but very seldom refereed either.

With Mike Dean reluctant to use VAR when he's in the middle, it will be interesting see how he deals with respective penalty claims by both teams.

He doesn't seem any more or less reluctant to use VAR than any other SG referee - indeed he was the referee for the first game where it was used in the Premier League.

Well, I don't see why they'd bother to make a change just for that. It's not like Everton V Man City especially warrants a specific VAR and whilst Marriner is more experienced as a referee than Kavanagh they probably have similar experience as VARs.

The most likely reason would seem to be that Marriner's not in a position to referee today for whatever reason (injury?) but can be a VAR.

Maybe the PGMOL decided they didn't want Andre to referee Chelsea, and wanted Chris to do so instead?
David Silva olé.

Friend has been about as good as the game so far - i.e. not very.

Well the less said about Kevin Friends appointment after recent performances the better , absolute gobsmacked no PL middles for Dean or Atkinson , Kavanagh seems to be in and out which I find strange

The only bad game he has had rcently was at selhurst park a few weeks ago. He has been fairly aolid since then
.


Point proven about a mid table clash. Has anyone seen a more turgid, boring game this season? Compare to Man City games even when we lose - exciting end to end stuff which brings out the best in teams, just as it should be

He's only refereed one game!

My point still stands though he hasn't really done too much wrong in that game and all the other games he reffed this season outside of that game at Selhurst park. I think he's ok to do the man united v arsenal game.

Give it a rest now mate. I Get it both teams are crap, and that friend didn't have a good game, but he has been fairly solid for most of this year, he didn't get an fa cup final for nothing. I doubt you'll be on here commenting when he has a good game.
