Why do the FA, FIFA and all the old farts running football still allow any player to confront the referee? In most sports it is only the captain who is allowed this privilege and even then it's not a given right.
At the Spurs' match, hordes of players from both sides were in the umpire's face, which has to stop.
But what really made me chuckle is that the Tottenham captain on the pitch at the time was little Luka Modric who is Croatian and I'm not sure how strong his English is, to communicate with the ref. He left it to all the other players but at the end, when order had been restored he did calmly approach the ref. By this time the ref was fed up and refused to talk to Modric- then he showed him a yellow card. Poor sod.
