Viktor Kassai (Hungary)

Voted the world’s top ref in 2011, during which he refereed the Champions League final before rounding off the year nicely with a helpful display in Tallinn, when he sent off two Estonians in our 4-0 play-off first-leg win. Kassai (above) let his standards slip somewhat in the Bernabéu in April when he awarded a harsh handball against David Alaba. “He let the big match pressure get to him,” insisted Graham ‘Takes One to Know One’ Poll afterwards.
