Mike Dean produced a bizarre moment during Chelsea vs. Manchester City - possibly the strangest thing yet of his legendary career.

In the 30th minute, the star referee strangely performed a 360-degree turn while the game was in flow.
He randomly spun his whole body for no apparent reason in a hilarious sequence which didn't go unnoticed by fans on social media.

One wrote: "Had to be a bet/dare with his mates surely."
A second said: "Someone shouted ref so he looked around is my best guess."
A third added: "The man's so weird. He doing a 360? Lmao."
A fourth commented: "There are just no words for this man anymore."

Though his decision did not prove costly as the Blues beat the Premier League leaders 1-0 to book a spot in the final.
