Yes i saw the earlier tweet where he thought it wasnt a penalty ….and then changed his mind after seeing replays (fair enough)..saying VAR should have given it but understanding why not (pffft to that one)…he seems to have covered all the no but yes but maybe angles :facepalm:
He also said this which doesn’t quite tie in with what you’ve said
“Wouldn't say it was clear and obvious and, as the ref didn't give it, I'm not surprised the decision stood after VAR check.”
