VIDEO: ‘He wants to be the star’ – Garth Crooks tears strips off Mike Dean with furious rant

Wow

He’s angry. Very feckin’ angry.

Garth Crooks didn’t hold back on the BBC on Saturday after Chelsea beat nine-man Arsenal.

He wasn’t having a pop at Wenger or Gabriel or even Diego Costa. Oh no, he was tearing referee Mike Dean a new arsehole.

The pundit accused the official of wanting to be the star of the show and said he ruined the game with an unnecessary red card for the Gunners defender after an incident with Costa.

“It’s really getting on my nerves because he’s spoiling good games,” Crooks lost the plot. “It’s not about you, Mike.”

Naturally though, Jose Mourinho – who hailed Costa as man of the match – was delighted after the game.

He was even smiling and fooling around. And smiling.
