2 of the worst decisions I’ve seen

I’m not making excuses. We were dreadful today and would have lost anyway. Palace more than deserved the victory.

Ignoring all that they were 2 of worst decisions I’ve ever seen in football.

The penalty

How is that a penalty? Lindelof was close to the ball when it was kicked. You can’t spend a whole football game with your arms by your side. It’s not natural. The penalty Leeds conceded last week was a disgrace this was worse.

De Gea

The less said about that ruling the better. You save a pen where you are routed to the line. It’s a stupid rule and should be ruled on common sense basis.

Gabriel handles, nothing given.

Bowen is tripped in a fashion that regularly sees teams in red shirts given a penalty, again nothing is given.

Bowen dived having not been touched. The Arsenal player tried to head the ball and it hit his upper arm. He wasn't blocking a shot.

Learn the rules.

Only just saw it on MOTD and thought both decisions were incredibly harsh. Pen was so little distance and almost looked like De Gea had a foot on the line still. Remarkable they deemed it as a clear and obvious error to be overturned.

Shouldn't be a penalty in my opinion but I was unaware of the rule changes. If the rules state those are now penalties then fair enough, but that is seriously worrying going forward.

United had a few ridiculous decisions go there way at the back end of last season though so don't think you can complain too much about one going against you, however, and not convinced it changed the result today either.

Both correct decisions and in line with the laws of the game. Your issue is with the law makers not the ref or VAR....and yes, if it happens to liverpool I will be fuming too.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
It happened with Pool last season at Klanfield against City when TAA handled the ball, but Michael Oliverpool (and VAR) ignored it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Bernardo handled it first.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Var still think that taa didn't handball it. Gallagher confirmed it after. Because if they are both handball any advantage Liverpool had would of been stopped by the taa handball. Meaning fabinho doesn't score.

There needs to be consistency all throughout penalties.

For example lindelof... arm in a natural position and running alongside the defender and hot from about a yard - clearly accidental - penalty given

Pogba running between 2 defenders and accidentally tripped stopping him from getting further forward - penalty not given.... what's the actual difference... neither was clearly intentional

The penalty yesterday was a complete var sh 1tshow. I thought they might be sorting var out but that was fecking farcical.

That's the point, none of them were handball according to the rules.
