What planet is Robbie Savage on!? Mount gets pulled down when he is clean through, ref gives penalty and red card. Replay shows Milan defender has hands all over him, twice. Savage says it is never a penalty, and VAR needs to intervene. He then goes on to say it is a physical contact game.
I constantly hear pundits say ex footballers should be in the VAR studio. They know the game, after all.

It only is double jeopardy if he genuinely tried to win the ball. Pulling the shirt doesnt qualifyTomori sent off v chelsea

Had he attempted to play the ball, yes, yellow; because he made no attempt to play the ball it’s a red.

i genuinely dont get the point of the rule if that is a pen and a red card, no change there with modern footie lol

The rule is clear. If the defender puts a tackle in, mistimes it, it is a penalty and yellow. Before it used to be an automatic red.
However, if the foul is not a tackle, but a player simply grabbing a player or intentionally taking them out, it is a red.

Going to be a few red cards in this game I think. Milan look like they'll be a bit like Atletico, and try and force the ref to dish out cards to Chelsea. Ref is trigger happy as well

Am back from me meeting so I can now Chuck in a few comments. The Mahrez handball, two players jostling for a ball coming out of the gods, it brushes his hand and it’s handball coz five seconds later Rodri scores a worldly. He don’t score it’s not handball. ??Sweet soddin mother. Not one player complained about the goal. Where was VAR when the keeper got a hand to a save and the ref gives a goal kick. The rules are just plain stupid.
Good win for Chelsea away at Milan, never an easy place to go.

Thought City were woeful tonight. Obviously happy with an away point with Liverpool on Sunday but still embarrassing for a team that cost over a billion versus a League One level outfit.
They're gonna walk the league but the CL picture looks bleak - if Haaland is injured for a period they've become so reliant on him they're going to struggle.

Bit over the top, for a side that was playing away from home, resting players for the weekend and playing with 10 men for an hour.
Even with 10 men, they looked comfortable. They just didn't try to get past 3rd gear and try hard to win.
Not sure how the Champions League picture looks bleak, given that they are still huge favourites to many / most.

Got to say I usually enjoy reading your posts, but that one was rammel. Played an hour with 10 men and still had more possession and chances and corners. A goal disallowed, penalty missed and they rely on Haaland. ?He was rested and so was the 3rd highest scorer in the Prem, Foden. On a night City were embarrassing they qualified for the Champs league.

Yeah, I did check the stats, in case my eyes had deceived me, and they painted a different picture to what we both saw, and maybe support 4LEX point of view.
City won shots on target 4-1
City won shots off target 6-4
City won blocked shots 5-1
City had 56% possession
City won corners 8-4
City won crosses 18-11
I wonder how many other teams in Europe would take that performance as a woeful display, and painted a bleak picture?
Meanwhile, Chelsea have dropped 5 points in their group (but now looking decent). Real Madrid also dropped a couple of points, as did PSG. Juventus look all but out. Liverpool's season looks bleak generally. Atletico currently sit bottom of their group, and Barcelona have dropped 6 points in 3 CL games. Only Bayern have a 100% record so far.
