If you're not striving to improve, you'll end up going backwards.
City may have wanted to buy the refs a bit before they were 16 points off top

The ball hit the ref in the build-up, I think.

Ref tried to get out of the way in the ball but effectively blocked a Sheffield player from getting a good touch, De Bruyne cleaned it up, passed to Aguero who scored

ref played the ball resulting in a turnover but didn't stop play, city scored, VAR said it was fine

If the ball touches the referee (or another match official) and goes into the goal, team possession changes or a promising attack starts, a dropped ball is awarded.

On second look it seems like the ref actually touched it?? Hard to tell, at first I thought the Sheffield player got a foot on it through the ref but I dunno anymore

There's been plenty of times when people stay on their feet and don't get fouls called when they're clearly dispossessed unfairly, the refs are poo poo, you gotta spoon feed them

wasn't a rule literally imposed this summer saying that if the ball ever touches the ref then play has to be stopped and a drop ball happens?

The official ruling is that the ball never hit the ref.
Despite him body checking the SU player, he never touched it so there's no rule for it to be stopped play.

Yeah but it didn't hit the ref, despite the ref clearly interfering with play. I don't know why the spirit of standing in an offside position and being a distraction despite not touching the ball isn't applied to this rule.

I mean the ref completely blocks his sight!
