Whilst almost everything you say is correct, it would only be disallowed next season if the referee is shown footage of it hitting his arm. As he clearly indicated it HADN’T hit his arm, given exactly the same footage as last season, that goal will still stand next season.I think that's where we differ. Llorente's arm was next to his body (to my mind, a natural position) and didn't move toward the ball - it just hit him. The laws last season require some form of movement or deliberate action (such as being waved around), and I just can't see it.
Next season it's been clarified that it would be disallowed, but that's next season's laws.

Happens every year, Fantasy Football promoting usually United especially when they play their pre season friendlies.BBC reporting the last time Liverpool played Norwich on the opening day they won the league ahead of city, and claiming fate ffs why the fuck do we have to pay a license fee for this shit, it was 42 fucking years ago totally irrelevant.
Had a good view in the ground of it and thought it looked like handball. What did it for me though was the players reaction. There was a pause before they and the fans celebrated. They knew it was dodgy. Had the referee seen all the angles he would have given it as handball. Water under the bridge now. I think if we had gone through anyway we may not have won the league because of tiredness. Spurs certainly tailed off.Yes, he'd have to see it hitting the arm.
Watching it, the BT crew (Ferdinand particularly) was quite clear that even the angle that was shown had the arm strike quite obvious. It was not as obvious than the other one the ref apparently didn't look at, but the studio seemed sure that it was shown.
There's no difference between the Sissoko handball in the final and the Llorente handball. If the ball doesn't hit Llorente's elbow it's probably not bouncing down on his thigh and into the net. If it doesn't hit his elbow, the ball is hitting him upper thigh and would probably fall straight into the hands of Ederson.Had a good view in the ground of it and thought it looked like handball.

They need to get the accolades early though, they rarely get them at the end.Pool are the early recipients of the accolades.
