Not only was his arm extended thus making his body wider but by dropping his arm to a more "natural" position it literally connected with a shot on goal as the play developed. His arm should never have been up to begin with; if his arm is where it should be he doesn't deflect the shot barring an intentional movement. Yet, he intentionally drops his arm and connects with the shot. A pen should have been rewarded imo.

To me its a pen, he jumps and his arm is up, that's fine, but he pulls it back in to the ball after the initial jump movement, for me anyway.
I'm shocked there wasn't more uproar by Chelsea players or Pochettino at full time yesterday.
Knocked out of a final by a decision like that, I'd want Ten Hag and the players screaming bloody murder if it happened United.
Absolutely true, and such a problem.
Also, how is Oliver even allowed to ref any premier league games where Newcastle rivals are involved?
It’s a total disgrace
I remember that when Liverpool put out a statement and the PGMOL apologised about it GNev talked about how a terrible precedent had been set and now we have seen a lot of clubs doing this stuff. It’s absolutely terrible behaviour and the league should be coming down heavy on it. Refs are bad and the PL should be working on it but this sort of accusations are pathetic
"Our patience has been tested multiple times."
Shut up you fecking victims.

Ok maybe I was wrong but it does clearly state in the FA's rules that it is a sending off offence.
FA Rules said:
@Dirty Schwein is VAR
Disagree. We are in this position with the standard of refereeing as it is because there is zero accountability. The level of protection they are afforded despite the decisions they get away with often costing clubs millions and players an honest shot of success or glory in their careers.
It’s about time they are held to account and that won’t happen unless clubs demand it publicly.
Because Liverpool defo wouldn't do this......
Love how they forgot how many times VAR fecked us too
Justice for a racist t-shirt wankers.
That’s pathetic from forest.
I rate that from Forest
How can Carragher come out with this when Klopp and Liverpool are THE worst offenders re complaining about referees?
What happened at the Forest game?
First of all they need to call out incompetence and not bias, this just makes them seem utterly childish. I just don’t think that public trashing does anything special either, it just undermines your own league.
Klopp "I don't know.. Maybe the var is a Luton fan hahahaha, why are you asking me a stupid question, you have a small penis and I have no nerve for you"
I love that clubs dare to call it out. It is a system that should help make games more fair, but those sitting in the VAR room have done a shit job.
Have they ever peddled conspiracy theories about who the officials support?
Carragher is right. They can complain about the decisions but that is like a fan down the pub and they'll get themselves into trouble for that tweet.
I don't disagree with you but we all know that the only thing that will come from this is a hefty fine for Forrest.
Denied 2 clear pens and a third one that probably should have been given too.
Of course, but if noone complains, nothing will be done about it.
apparently they also sent a since deleted tweet that claimed that the var was vaccinated.
Has this been deleted already? I'm getting an error. What did it say?
EDIT: oh it's showing up now. Poxy Elon
Don't think any of those were stonewall. Clubs need to stop crying and take responsibility for their own ineptitude first.
Nico Williams post match interview should be visible now
Oliver also shouldn't officiate any games involving City or their rivals given his secondary business interests in managing 5-a-side games in the UAE for obscene amounts of money.
The 3 non-penalty decisions:
I think the handball would be a bit harsh, he's pretty close and can't really react. The challenges though, he's very very "lucky" to escape both.

Its hard to understand how you don’t get 1 penalty from those 2 challenges when there is VAR
Anyone who has seen this would probably agree with something being off.
My theory is that they're artificially trying to create a relegation battle. Were in WWE territory.
