Anthony Taylor will take charge of Arsenal’s match against Tottenham while Jarred Gillett is, once again, on VAR for a game at the Emirates.

Arsenal return to action this weekend with a trip to Brentford for a 12pm kick-off on Sunday, so which officials have been charged with messing things up?

Arsenal’s afternoon might have unfolded differently if Greater Manchester’s Lee Mason on VAR hadn’t told Salford’s Paul Tierney to have a look at Christian Eriksen falling over and even Martin Odegaard has no clue why it was called back.

Paul Tierney has been appointed referee for Arsenal’s trip to Manchester United this weekend and it will come as something of a surprise to learn that he hails from just three miles away from Old Trafford, but that’s the least of Arsenal’s problems with him.
