And I've seen, yes, cases where goalkeepers have been impeded, as in they couldn't go towards the ball.

This is different.

He's really literally pushing his arm down as he's about to catch the ball or punch it.

That is really clear and obvious.

And the fact that the on-pitch referee is not saying immediately, no, no, no, come on guys, there's a foul.

First of all, good luck for anybody who would be, you know, the ref cam, that's about the only thing that it's the only purpose it serves.

When they use it, you realize this is chaos all around those guys.

And also, there is this thing, if I get it wrong, it will be corrected, which has become the default behavior, I think, of quite a few referees in the Premier League.

We saw that as well in the Fulham game, where there were two red cards given, which were, I think, completely obvious, should have been given on the pitch earlier.

It just thought the referee thought, listen, I'm going to give a yellow card.

They can always tell me if I didn't get it right.

So it's a kind of insurance policy.

I can understand if I were a West Ham supporter, because I think in many ways, this decision is of more consequence on West Ham than it is on Arsenal.

Losing out on a title, which by the way, Arsenal wouldn't have lost out on the title.

Manchester City still has to go to Bournemouth, which is bloody hell, very hard indeed.

And anything could happen.

But in the case of West Ham,

I mean, that's a sickness.

That's an absolute sickness.

So I think you can feel sympathy for everybody involved.
