Which Premier League Team will miss Howard Webb the most?
Howard Webb retires as referee after 25 years to become match officials technical director
Many fans shed a tear when Howard Webb retired from refereeing just 10 days before the start of the 2014/15 Premier League season, with many even going as far as saying this will hit Manchester United the most.
Webb has been targeted many a time for being a little “partial” toward the Red Devils. But have they benefited the most from his decisions?
While we don’t want to go into an in-depth analysis of all his decisions, we have some stats which show that Man City have actually benefited the most when Webb was in charge of the game.
City have won more points (in lesser games) than their derby rivals, averaging almost 2.5 points per game. North London side Arsenal are another team who will be sad to see him go as they have enjoyed more than 2 points per game with him in charge.
Liverpool, however, will be happy to see the back of him as they average less than one point per game when Webb takes the field.
