Former Premier League referee Mike Dean calls out VAR after ruling out Fulham's goal vs. Chelsea due to Muniz's accidental challenge on Chalobah.

@ESPNUK This same guy who was in the VAR box and refused to give the decision when Marc Cucurella hair was pulled... SHUT THE F***CK UP

@ESPNUK Careless statement from a professional referee 😞

@ESPNUK Wait Then when do you draw the line on what’s an accident and what’s not? Because over 80% of fouls in football are complete accidents. Most players intend going for the ball, misses the ball and then end up getting the player instead.💁🏾‍♂️

@ESPNUK Mike Dean should stfu A clear foul and he's saying VAR should stay out of it. Was that not a foul? So he should've been allowed to pull out Chalobah's leg before VAR will call. Rubbish

@ESPNUK Stepping on a player is not a foul? Stop this!

@ESPNUK He’d know all about poor VAR calls

@ESPNUK Mike Dean himself is known for having howlers officiating

@ESPNUK but if such an accident happened in box 18, it should stand? huh?

@ESPNUK Mike dean stfu

@ESPNUK It was a foul whether accidental or intentional it was a foul and it prevented Chalobah from effectively defending so it ought to be called!

@ESPNUK Why the complain and accident right that can send the player to injury 😅 You all must be a joke !!!

@ESPNUK Mike Dean slams VAR on Fulham’s goal! Fair call? 😡⚽️

@ESPNUK We got lucky mate

@ESPNUK Yes... Var didn't get it right

@ESPNUK VAR's inconsistency is the real problem here, not the challenge

@ESPNUK I never knew this man to be such a fair man in my life

@ESPNUK I think he’s right.

@ESPNUK Trainwreck

@ESPNUK Mike Dean of all people 😭😭😭😭

@ESPNUK Very useless thing to say

@ESPNUK Same Mike dean that was always a 12th man against Chelsea in every match he officiated? Let him go sit somewhere uncomfortable .

@ESPNUK That was broad day light robbery

@ESPNUK You call an accident a poor call, make it make sense 🤨🤨

@ESPNUK What accident, does the pitch look like a road to him? So if a player slides by accident during a penalty kick and touches the ball with his 2 feet and scores in the process, he would let the goal stand because it’s an accident?

@ESPNUK Mike Dean’s opinion should be invalid…

@ESPNUK “Complete accident” that why he wasn’t booked. But it’s a FOUL!!!!!

@ESPNUK While he was active as a referee, this guy refused to send his mate to the VAR screen for a hair pull on Cucurella. He has made several horrendous decisions as a referee, and now we should take his opinions seriously. LMAO 😂😂

@ESPNUK Is there an "Accidental Clause" in the rules book? That's why he was so poor at his job. Where in the laws of the book is it where an accident foul isn't a foul?

@ESPNUK Of course Mike Dean's crying, refs always defend bad calls when it's against Chelsea's rivals That Fulham "goal" was a foul all day long, Chalobah literally got clattered before the ball went in

@ESPNUK It’s a huge refereeing problem at the moment Nothing to do with favouritism or anything The refereeing in the country is just poor

@ESPNUK

@ESPNUK almost every fouls are accidental? tf

@ESPNUK You can’t stop on a defenders leg and then go ahead and score.

@ESPNUK Coming from a corrupt refree

@ESPNUK of course it’s mike dean

@ESPNUK He should STFU! This is the guy that when on Var didn’t signal for hair pull on cucurella…cause he didn’t want to show up his mate (Anthony Taylor) even though he knew he should…
