What's the difference between Cancelo's foul and TAA's 'challenge'?

"Evening out" shouldn't come into it. Just give correct and sensible decisions in the first place. You are right though, refereeing in the PL is currently at an all time low.
It shouldn’t and actually i think with us and city, it probably won’t even out because of the way we play, we seem to get fouled a lot more often then other teams who play slower.

The amount of times saka gets fouled without getting a free kicks let alone yellow card is bordering on ridiculous, the fact he then gets a card for the most minor foul in return makes me question the agenda.
 
We (arsenal) have had at least 3 identical incidents this season, I think saka twice and Jesus once. No pens given for any so at least they are consistent. Jesus was literally man handled to the floor in Southampton box.

Ironically an identical barge on a Chelsea player yesterday resulted in a freekick in their box so why it’s not a pen in the other box I don’t know.

The refereeing has been as poor as I can ever remember this year.

But kdb won an extremely generous penalty (giving you an extra 2 points) for a way softer ‘foul’ than any of those above incidents so it does even out I guess.
No he didn’t, it was a penalty! Enough of this narrative

Absolutely correct. As was Fulham's, IMHO.
It was all the other dodgy decisions in the game that displayed England's incompetence. When a player goes as mental as Bernardo did it's usually an indication that something's going on.
 
Wiped him out? Ffs,

He did wipe him out. It was soft but he effectively ran towards Wilson, who took a touch which straightened the trajectory of the ball. In hindsight he could have just ignored Wilson and got his body in front of it. I think Ederson was closing down the shot anyway as it wasn't a great touch by Wilson and Ederson had anticipated it. But unfortunately in the slippy conditions Cancelo ends up charging Wilson and because of the touch it probably is a foul. I'd want it at the other end! Our penalty was pretty soft and we won the game so no harm done in the end. If the ref had an agenda he wouldn't have given the De Bruyne pen - which was one - but was also soft.
