Henderson pushes Fabregas straight over trying to take Liverpool's free kick just then, a bigger push than Dunk's, then Henderson squares up to a couple of Chelsea players - not even a talking to, the ref not even slightly interested in the push…game carries on. No one is worried. All part of...

Exactly what I am trying to say. Couldn't agree more. As others have said, Dunk gives the ref a decision to make, but that doesn't stop it being a bad decision.

Dunk was a fool. Not arguing that point. But Jota was looking at Dunk and intentionally kicking the ball away, he knew full well he was going to get pushed and what he was doing. Watch it back, I don't think there is any surprise from Jota at all. My whole point on this, is that 'raising...

Jota received rightly a yellow as determined by the laws of the game for preventing a free kick being taken and kicking the ball away. There is absolutely no dispute over his yellow. I don't disagree with anyone saying Dunk was wrong to put himself in the position of being sent off, but that...

I'm not talking about just corners etc. There are pushes throughout a game, often to get a ball back to take a throw in, or take a free kick. Happens all the time. Normally an opposing player doesn't throw themselves to the floor. That is the only thing that got Dunk a 2nd yellow. That push...

If it was, we'd be seeing 15 bookings a game for pushes. We don't because it wasn't 100% a yellow.

A push isn't an automatic yellow. The only automatic yellow in that incident was for Jota for deliberating stopping a free kick being taken and kicking the ball away. The ref did have a choice. The choice he had to make was whether the push was 'reckless' that was the choice under the laws of...

As said above, I can't even see why it's a yellow? A push is not an automatic caution offence. Push to his head, then yes, to his arm to get the ball, not in my book. I agree with the common sense definitely, but even if Dunk wasn't on a yellow, I don't think that is a yellow card. If the ref is...

Never a booking. If that had been during play, then it might have been a free kick, but never a booking, not for a push. So why, in this instance when Dunk is trying to get the ball for OUR free kick is it a booking? If the ref is judging a push to be a cautionable offence, he has to judge if...
