Never a penalty. I haven't seen it, but it's Leicester, so **** it.

with the extra bonus of stopping the holding in the box at set pieces
mind you if they had a congenital upper limb disability would we get discussions about if it was ball to flipper or flipper to ball
Not when it's that close and hit with that amount of pace I don't think it would have.
By the bonkers rule this season though it was a definite pen. No where near the worst decision so far this season.
It would be sound advice these days to just tell the players to get to the edge of the box and whip them in chest height all match. They're bound to hit an arm or 2 during a game.
I missed it when they made that signing from Man Utd in the summer. Poor decision by Woodward.
For anyone that hasn't seen it, which included me until now:

Yeh but now wingers, full backs etc are crossing it at waist height all the time.
Whether that one was a penalty may be open to debate but it's still VAR ruining football.
Just let the onfield officials decide in real time, it's the fairest way.
I've been saying that since the 3rd week of the season. Just smash the ball at defenders all game.

And no one putting their arm up for offside
I judge on what I see, so would agree, if I felt it was purposely aimed at the arm, then, no pen. I just felt it was a situation where the attacking player attempted to cross the ball in and the defender had a flailing arm. I wouldn't have needed VAR to come to that decision and totally disagree with the commentators. If it was my team playing would I have wanted the penalty, dead right I would have.
5 of those 7 were in two games (West Brom and Man City) because those two sides couldn’t defend for ****, I can’t recall any being contentious. The one vs Leeds on Monday he went through the back of him which is a free kick anywhere else and that one today is sadly a pen in today’s game. The fact those last two had to be overruled by VAR says something in itself...
no need the technician at Stockley Park decides by randomly moving some lines around .
