I think we got away with one and I am glad that we did. We have had a few go against us.
Not sure what Joe was thinking though tugging back Jesus like that.
However since he came back into the team he has been immense so I will forgive him!

Yes it could have been a penalty but shouldn’t and wasn’t.
It’s part of the new game I hate- a bit like the ‘penalty’ surridge gave away recently. Cmon..
They are driving all forms of contact out of the game- except of course before a corner where almost anything is allowed!
And it’s going to get worse. I’ve seen clips from Europe of fullbacks tracking wingers with their hands behind their back. It’s not a metaphor - really with their hands behind their back. This is what’s coming I’m afraid and not for the better imho.

I think it's one of them where if it had been lets say MGW tugged back by an Arsenal defender and nothing was given then we would all be furious and there would be uproar on here.
Anyway it doesn't matter now because we won and we are Premier League.

It was outside the box, VAR cannot give a free kick.
