If you dont think its a red - are we just allowing players to lash out and hit/catch each other in the face now?

Controversial but I think he’s got to the right deicision he didn’t mean to make contact with his face hand slides up, it’s a shove not a slap or punch.
It’s a yellow at most.
however the mistake is giving the red, he should have booked him then gone and reviewed it or not reviewed it at all

VAR officials shouldn't be refs. They should be independent. Remove the emotion and chumminess from it all.

Referee aside, we lack attacking threat once again, subs are needed.
But he should have been booked for the foul

There’s another 1st, Var either say red which ref gives or tell him to go to the screen, instead var says red, twat gives the red then goes to screen, bizarre, twatwell on form though, awful decision process there and chelsea again the beneficiaries at our expense in another new and peculiar way.

Surely it was a yellow for the tackle then another yellow for raising his hands?

Maybe but - hands to the face used to be a bright line that could not be crossed.
Casemiro shove around the neck was less violent and nobody argued that it was not a red - because it was a bright line.

It should've been two yellows, though. That's clear as day.
VAR could have checked it as a potential red card incident?

Emerson Royal was embarrassing, goes charging in like an idiot and then hits the deck like he's been walloped.
Don't care if it's for my club or not that shit is awful to watch. Common sense wins the day, deserved a smack did Emerson. Keown esque levels of being a wanker.

The absolute state of referees in this league. He was giving a first yellow does he not think the hand in the face is a second yellow?
Gonna need to bring Royal off as he is a red waiting to happen now.

We would be better off playing Kulu behind Kane and Richarlison as the front three are all living off scraps in the current set up. Alternatively take Kulu off, drop Kane deeper with Richarlison and Son up top.

The images they actually showed the ref made it look like a clear red, the other images we were shown shows his hand slip off the shoulder.

But it as a double yellow? The tackle that stopped a counter attack, and then a second yellow for a shove on the face?
