He did
He was captain so it’s likely the ref knew their names and used them

He shouted ‘Matty’ to Grimes and also when Rudoni had the issue with the keeper he said ‘Rudi’.
Also the 4th official when we were doing the subs was shouting “haji”.
Don’t know if he’d reffed them before but I thought that was better than usual.

For reference, Busby reffed us at home to Blackburn, and West Brom and Sheff We’d away.
Andy Madley not done any of ours yet.

Different 22 each week plus subs? As a teacher I went full years without learning everyone’s name in a class I taught weekly!

It’s basic behaviour management TBF. I wonder if the FA recruits disaffected teachers

Both will have been captains and therefore he's more likely to haev spoken to them on that basis too.
