Chelsea trapped referee Paul Tierney in their pre-match team huddle in one of the most bizarre sights of the Premier League season.
Tierney looked utterly bewildered as the players leant in around him ahead of their clash with Newcastle at Stamford Bridge on Saturday afternoon.
Cole Palmer stared directly at the official before having words with him after the huddle dispersed.
And Enzo Fernandez was barely able to hold himself together as he had a laugh while the shirts arranged around Tierney.
The episode lasted for around half a minute, during which time viewers were left scratching their heads.
Chelsea have been congregating on or near the centre circle in recent weeks but surrounding a referee is an unprecedented step.
