Lucky indeed. It baffles me that a stamp out of frustration on someone's bum isn't deemed VC due to lack of force.... Sorry but when was a stamp part of football? Any stamp, punch, kick out, slap should be VC regardless of force. It is not part of the game whatsoever.

Has anyone actually seen the offside lines? I've only viewed highlights (and only on the phone) and it looked like he was behind the ball when it was headed back.

MO gave Arsenal's MLS a red card for glancing trip but failed to even give a foul for studs to the head. I'm genuinely shocked he missed that.

Gabriel was in the West Ham half as the foul was committed. Easy DOGSO. Arsenal will not appeal that. They have nothing to appeal against

I saw the VAR footage online and thought, yeah I can somewhat understand why he has overturned it, however, this is rerefereeeing the game. Since then, the other footage of the pulls has surfaced, which I'm assuming the ref saw in real time. Why wasn't this provided to the referee? It all...

The 2 'take one for the team' counter attack stops from Liverpool defenders went unpunished first half. Konate booting the ball away unpunished. Konate reckless mid air challenge which is nailed on caution every time, nothing. The penalty. The defender would have made a simple clearance but is...

Thing I don't understand is... MO dishes out the reds... But totally failed to give all of the Liverpool players surrounding him and the ARs and 4th official any cautions. They stand there just getting shouted at with abuse when they should have acted. Also to the bias claim.... Bradley and...

Thought it was great use of VAR to disallow the goal. 2 hands in the back. Stops him from closing down the cross. Has clearly interfered with play

Why wasn't Mings cautioned for handball? If he doesn't pick it up it, WH are in a promising attack heading for goal.

There have been plenty of crunching tackles above the ankle with a lot of force that have been checked and confirmed caution. This has little force as it's a trip, yet a red. Fernandes got rescinded which was far worse as he did it out of frustration, so you'd expect this should

Hojland kicking the ball away just as Van Dijk was going to take the FK, no caution given. Can't argue with the penalty. However, we never saw any replays of the assumed Handball shout for united before the Liverpool penalty. The players were adamant it was handball. Would be good to see just...

How is it any different to a foot race and the attacker nudges it in front and the defender wins the ball when sliding in? Saliba makes contact with the ball first, then they have a clash of heads. Still think it should have gone to the monitor as the clear and obvious error was there. Had he...

Saliba wins the ball. Yes it hit the top of his head, but he wins it. VAR should have recommended a review and shown that angle to AT. Bare in mind today, a Spurs players deliberately left in a shoulder on Gordon (probably broke his nose) nothing given...

Not entirely sure where else he was supposed to put his feet? His left ankle gets taken out as well. Also, why would he want to intentionally hurt him? There was no 'beef' or argy-bargy going on between the pair of them.

It seemed that united were after Maddison, maybe to disrupt the play. Bruno slipping, he could have just pulled out of the tackle. He didn't. He wanted to make contact to stop Maddison He hit him high. It's his own fault. Can't really complain. Stupid decision to make contact like that.

This is a classic Harry Kane/Mo Salah special. Initiated the contacted and went down with the theatrical dive. Ederson should have known better for the quality keeper he is.

I am a teacher. We are told how to consistently use the behaviour policy because it's fair and students (and parents) respond well to consistency. Refereeing has the same level of authority and players expect consistency. I could open a can of worms and say comments on here that talk about...

Not really. Either you clamp down on it all or you don't. The fact Oliver points to where he wants it and Doku kicks it elsewhere is even more of a reason it should be a caution. There have been plenty of other incidents from other games which have gone unpunished which could be deemed as much...

I do like how on here with some players intention is known and with others it's not possibly allowed to be taken into account. Also on this occasion, the free kick location is key for it not being a caution, but for Rice, it didn't matter. I would get a still as he kicked it totally in the...

Have to disagree. Oliver clearly pointed to where it should be taken from and he has kicked it away from the two arsenal players and away from the area it should have been taken from. It's not even close to where the foul too place. Arsenal players were ready to take the free kick. Trossard was...
