Yesterday, he refereed the match between West Ham and Arsenal, but he ended up being the villain of the piece. “He’s the worst referee in England,” comments flooded social media platforms.
Anthony Taylor sparked outrage amongst Arsenal fans, despite the Gunners’ 2-5 victory at West Ham’s home ground. At the 38-minute mark, an unbelievable mistake took center stage. Rice had a clear intervention on the ball, but the English referee (who was only a few steps away from the altercation) called it a foul on Paqueta. From a penalty arises the goal of Emerson Palmieri, for the temporary 2-4. On social media many have made fun of him, a page that pokes fun at the Premier League writes: “Unfortunately, Taylor was not in a good position.” An Arsenal fan voices his thoughts on the recent match, stating, “It’s a disgrace!” In another report, a viewer shares his sentiments about the referee that infuriated Mourinho in May 2023, claiming, “He’s the worst English match official!”
