Quite interesting watching Davies' lunge again on Kompany. MOTD showed an angle where you can see the faces of Spurs fans in the background. There's a fair few covering their mouths or putting their hands on their heads in shock and horror; they clearly thought a red card was on its way.

4. Ali, Kane, Lloris, and Davies. Three were spiteful and born out of frustration, and all were seen by referees and punished by yellows. That's where I think VAR will ultimately have to include a 'challenge', whereby such decisions can be immediately challenged and overturned. Pawson and Moss copped out in both games and that has to be changed.

retrospective should include yellow carded challenges as well.

Do you mean after the game or immediately after the decision? I think players are savvy enough to know when a tackle is truly horrendous and the punishment insufficient, so allowing the captain to call for a review would be a good idea.

there was a tackle in the Southampton game that the ref missed ,the Chelsea player I reckon will get a retrospective and it wasn't as bad as the one on vinny

maybe a system where if there is a red card a 3 game ban,the next 2 games then the returning fixture against the sinned team.

not into the though of a captains review

Yes, Alonso's challenge was appalling, and right in front of the referee, but I'm not sure it will be punished retrospectively. A week on and Young will be free to play for that lot this afternoon. Under VAR, I reckon there has to be a mechanism whereby clubs can draw attention to something malevolent that has gone completely unpunished during the game. A delayed punishment, as you suggest, would be of little comfort for Southampton when they are relegated.
 
Lloris' was at least offset by the wrongly awarded penalty. If it had been in the area, he probably wouldn't have been sent off under the new rules - I think it was borderline, but refs are likely to err on the side of the keeper making a reasonable challenge.

Alonso and Davies were nowhere near the ball, and should be straight off.

Refs now are allowed to state that they did not see an incident properly, allowing upgrade of a no-card decision even if they've given a foul. None of them seem to do this, which makes them all look bad. I don't know if that's possible for yellows, but I thought it was too.

5 - 3 in the first game 2 in the secind.
In reality though, if Ali had been sent off for the stamp on Delph he wouldn't have been not sent off for the hack on De Bruyne.
The foul on Sterling today, being outside the box, woukd have been a red but Moss cleverly sidestepped the red card for last man fouls and gave us a pen instead - probably on the assumption that Spurs would still have a chance with a pen.
 
1st on tonight, gonna to watch the highlights even though I watch the whole game.


When I’m at the games and it’s on tv I’ll record it and watch it back when I get home watch motd watch game of the day if it’s us watch the match choice and watch it on goals on Sunday, all dependant on if we win of course
