I don't think Villa are that scary.

But if West Ham have won, then it feels a lot heavier, doesn't it?

And Scott, we've got to get a result.

But if West Ham have lost and it's a chance to gain things,

Max, if you could only choose one out of Cambridge promoted or Tottenham staying up, which is it?

Yeah, fairly major story in Italy, certainly gobbled up all the headlines at the beginning of this week about the head of the referees committee for the top two divisions, Gianluca Rocchi, stood down because he's under investigation by the Milan prosecutor's office.

So did Andrea Gervasoni, who is the...

video assistant referee supervisor for the same body rocky is not going to be interviewed actually we thought he was going to be interviewed by the prosecutor today but his lawyer has said that he's decided to make decision for his client not to go ahead with that until the charges are made more clear to them jerva zoni i believe is going to be interviewed today on thursday

We still may not know the full extent of everything that's under investigation.

Should be said that as of today, they've been pretty clear that no clubs are under investigation.

This is a case relating specifically to refereeing and how certain refereeing decisions were made about which referees get designated to certain matches and also about how VAR is used.

There was this particular game that was picked up where you had two officials discussing a VAR decision in the game between referees.

Udinese and Parma last season where Florian Thauvin's shot hit the arm of Botan Balogh inside the penalty box.

The VAR official Daniela Paterna, they have a situation similar to in England where the VAR headquarters are done for the International Broadcast Centre.

was seen basically saying not a penalty uh with his assistant and then turns off camera on the camera you can see and clearly gets a gesture from someone that perhaps this uh is worth reconsidering because he's can you can see him mouthing it's penalty and then he tells the referee to um to have a look at it again and then ends up giving the decision for a penalty so discussion about

Who exactly that was who said that to him and whether that was the appropriate protocol.

It's a lot of stuff about protocol and stuff about designating referees.

But of course, we're 20 years on from Calciopoli, which was a big scandal about how referees were designated.

So it is very tense and sensitive ground.

But again, just to say at the moment, at least, the investigators have said no clubs under investigation.
