Premier League is doomed – Graeme Souness cries after Maddison’s penalty against Newcastle

December 13, 2021

Former Newcastle manager, Graeme Souness has insisted the Premier League was “doomed” after James Maddison won a controversial penalty against Newcastle United on Sunday.

Souness was irate after the referee and the video assistant referee decided to award Leicester a soft first half penalty after Maddison tangled with Jamal.

The former Newcastle manager and Sky Sports pundit said that Maddison actually kicked himself to win the spot-kick.

“If we’re giving penalties for that we’re doomed,” Souness ranted after the match.

“Maddison actually kicks himself. He gets himself in the air and runs into (Newcastle defender Jamaal) Lascelles.”

Manchester United, Chelsea, Manchester City and Liverpool all won their Premier League matches this weekend through controversial penalties.

About seven penalties were awarded across the Premier League this weekend alone – the most in any one matchday since the 2003/04 campaign.
