Seen them given.

Yep - once I saw the replay I was convinced he was being sent to the monitor.  VAR is weird.

Digne now on a 1 match ban

Saliba hasn't given Watkins a kick.  Nothing is sticking to him tonight at all.

Me too. Would have been soft but could easily have been given.

We really need to get a better foothold in this.

That's because Saliba is world class. His injury was the sole reason Arse didn't win the title last season.

need to sort this out

It would've been ridiculously harsh, especially given there was as much contact on Luiz from Jesus in the first place as there was for the 'foul'.

Moving on, Digne booked for pulling a shirt when Havertz just got the foul earlier, it's not corruption but it's blatant unconscious bias.
