Scolari looking for excuses

Scolari looking for excuses

Luiz Felipe Scolari was looking for excuses after Chelsea were defeated 2-1 by Arsenal in the Premiership last night. Scolari has called on Premiership referees to stop their mistakes as it is costing his team.

"Do you hear me speak about the referees any time? Never. For 15 games in the Premier League, five games in the Champions League and more in the Carling Cup I didn't say anything. But now it's different," the Portuguese boss said.

"I want only that the referee watches the television, see that it is wrong -- the referee and the linesman -- and they say sorry.

"Only this. Nothing more. They are not God. They make a mistake and I understand. I don't want three points, I only want for them, one time, to say 'sorry -- mistake'."
