The ref.
One major F**k up in any game from the b***ard in black (or whatever dodgy colour they've chose for the day) could ruin our chances. We need the officials from here on in to referee the games without a blemish against their names. And it doesn't matter if we win or not in the end, refereeing decisions that are wrong should still be spoke about.
Clattenburg, while he gave us three penalties at Old Trafford, didn't have a great game. He failed to send Rafael off, he gave a penalty for a Sturridge dive, he sent Vidic off when he didn't touch Sturridge, he failed to give a penalty when Sturridge was actually caught. The Sunderland game, Kevin Friend failed to send Vergini off twice. Yes we picked up six points in those two games but the officials still had relatively poor games.
It's important that the officials are spot on during the remaining six games.
