WHICH member of the ‘secret’ Premier League Key Match Incidents Panel has blabbed on social media about verdicts?
The independent group looking at any controversial moments in games are anonymous and are meant to be sworn to silence.
But the former international has been taking it further by putting opinions on X and backing up the decisions.
There have been a number of controversial incidents in the Premier League this season.
Arguably the biggest occurred during Tottenham's 2-1 win over Liverpool in September.
Luis Diaz thought he'd opened the scoring in the 34th minute, but his goal was wrongly disallowed when he was deemed to be offside.

There was another catalogue of VAR checks during Newcastle's 1-0 win over Arsenal earlier this month.

Three VAR checks took place in the build-up to the goal, with the first checking that the ball was in play.

Webb has since revealed that the decision to give the goal was correct.
Arteta has also been charged with a breach of FA rules for his furious post-match rant.
