VAR was having a cuppa tea

That is the quote of the day for me from the game.

If Robbo could have avoided impact, and didn't then it'd have been a foul.

As it stands there's nothing he can do about the Spurs player coming in late.

Its like driving down the street and someone jumps infront of your car at the last second to commit suicide. Unfortunate but not your fault really.

The ball was there to be won, Robertson won it, what happened afterwards was unavoidable. Would be ridiculous to be sent off for that.

It was accidental but still a red.

Definitely not a red.

Football fans are a funny breed.

Football fan of a particular club:

"I will always give an opinion that favours my team. It was/wasn't a foul. It should have/have not been a pen. It should/should not have been a red.

Doesn't matter the situation, fans of all clubs will always bias their opinion based on their loyalty to the club they support.

Its abit odd really. All fans do it.

When OP Google Robertson red card against spurs and a source from Ghana comes up 😅
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Source is irrelevant, but of course, in your mind it is?

Why?because you'd rather not talk about that tackle?

Here's one from your favourite paper

Arsenal fans aggrieved too, because they can see the similarity but VAR was having a tea?

Funny that Liverpool fans think otherwise, hmmm

The commentator said Moura made the foul on Robertson

Just seen the Aubameyang one for the first time, and at anyone who thinks the two incidents are remotely similar.

Agreed.

Then they accuse each other of being deluded when truth is we're all deluded.

That was a red all day. Robertson the dirty even kicked out at Toby. Only if Toby done a Rudiger and made the most of it and went tumbling to the floor
