Or a West Ham supporter, I should say.

No.

Basically, it would be the equivalent of the encroachment rule on penalty kicks.

And there is nothing really wrong apart from the monitoring of the encroachment, which would be much more complicated in the case of a corner kick, for example, than it is in the case of a penalty.

There is something to be said for that.

I won't be the devil's advocate.

I'm going to be the angel's advocate here.

I do think they got it right.

And I also think that the type of foul that led to the goal being disallowed is so egregious in a way.

I mean, I'd like, actually, try to remember if you can, because it's chaos, obviously, we're trying to make sense of here.

Another occasion this season where you had that type of foul committed on the goalkeeper by Arsenal or by any other club.

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.
