Manchester United - Lawrenson: \"Van Gaal speaking utter tosh\"

Published on: 09 March 2016

Manchester United lost 1-0 to West Brom at the weekend and Juan Mata's first half red card helped contribute in the defeat.

After the game, manager Louis Van Gaal believed that referee Mike Dean should have taken Mata's personality into consideration before showing him the red.

Pundit Mark Lawrenson completely disagreed when speaking to you-are-the-ref.com.

“That was utter tosh. That was just to deflect the fact they’d been beaten.

“You should take his personality into account? Joey Barton is going to get booked in the first second of every game then isn’t he!

“It’s either a foul and a yellow or it’s not."
