Ayew even moved out the way so it didn't even hit him haha. Villa arsenal game had exact same scenario and the ref just told the player to step back. Its shocking how much the refs are taking over games and how obsessed people have become with getting players sent off. They are there to keep things fair and balanced. The rule book should only be enforced when it's genuinely dangerous, cheating ( deliberate hand ball, stopping counter attack ) or if a singular player has totted up 3/4/5 incidents of petty fouls/wasting time etc. Can't stand when someone gets booked for one of the petty incidents unless it has been a collection of them
But how many players get sent off against us? The only red I can remember versus us was an injury time 2 footer for Burnley.
