Players are not allowed to show emotion anymore (alien.top)

This is getting out of hand. The FA are looking to investigate Haaland after he reacted to that awful decision yesterday. He only tweeted "wtf" as well. Didn't go on a mad cry baby rant like Arteta did when the decision yesterday was a lot worse.

So players literally aren't allowed react/show emotion when officials make such stupid mistakes? This is such a huge problem and why this keeps happening. Referees are protected. They have zero accountability. The sport we all love literally is dying. This season has been one of the lowest seasons we have had and the officials really are ruining it once and for all.

I'd argue that football is a sport where players reactions aren't that limited in all honest. You wouldn't see half the stuff players do with referees in sports like Rugby or Cricket.

When players go over the top then they might get fines - I think United and Arsenal have one for crowding the referee this season. Haaland probably won't be punished for his tweet - players have done worse and it's been fine so it's just paper speculation.
