is it just me?

I've also been the cause of this, I'm sorry to say, when a tire failed on
landing.

So if you've never experienced a controller issuing a go around, then you
are lacking in that experience. Lucky you.


So a blown tire means the controller didn't provide proper spacing?

No. They can occur independently. Both, though, may require the next
aircraft in sequence - which may have been cleared to land in the US - to
go around.

You claimed:

In the US, controllers would sequence the arriving aircraft so that a go
around would not be necessary.

to which I replied:

Where I live, controllers attempt to do so. They don't
always succeed. Sometimes they err, sometimes tires fail, ...

to which you replied:

Apparently your just inexperienced.

which makes as much sense as asking whether a blown tire means that the
controller failed to provide proper sequencing.
