And I have to agree.

They didn’t give one in the Chelsea game though. Commentator said they would have last season but the rules have changed.

I have to agree, there's been far too much fiddling with the law.
They should have left it to the ref to decide if it was deliberate ot not, with VAR to assist if required, and leave it at that. The ball is bound to hit arms accidentally from time to time, nothing should be given IMO.

Ridiculous one given to Newcastle too.

There's a perfect example of what I'm talking about. Dyer's arm was up because he was jumping. The ball comes from immediately behind him and glances off the back of his arm, he knew nothing about it. Clearly accidental and should never be a penalty. In years gone by, the ref would just say 'accidental' and wave play on.

Mourinho made the ref MoM

The handball ruling is abs stupid and ruining the game.


The stats are incredible ...

Prem League pens for the first 3 weeks of the season

2019/20

8 in 30 games, 0 for handball.

2020/21 ...

20 in 26 games, 6 for handball.


FIFA have told the Prem that they've got to operate VAR and pens for handball the same as Europe.

Last season 2019/20, handball pens were ...

PL 19

La Liga 48

Serie A 57

Once it happens to Liverpool, the world will end.

Even Steve Bruce said it was absolutely ridiculous so respect to him for his honesty even though Toon were the beneficiaries of the stupid decision.

Of the contentious ones this weekend, I think only Maupay's was justified because his hand was up in the air, just a real shame it gave Man Utd a win. The ones against Ward & Dier were just pathetic.

When making life simpler for the ref is given greater priority than what is fair and just, you've got to wonder haven't you.
