I agree with all of your points above mind.Once it was looked at, do you think it was a penalty?

50/50 - both kicking for ball , didn’t see if any of them touched it , wouldn’t call it a definite penaltyOnce it was looked at, do you think it was a penalty?
Was the challenge by White(?) on Jota a foul that led to the disallowed Mane goal?My understanding of a foul is impeding a player taking a shot, making a pass etc. Welbeck isn't in control of the ball and is going away from the ball, never a pen.
Welbeck touched it, but didn’t have it under control, he played it against Robertson’s left knee.50/50 - both kicking for ball , didn’t see if any of them touched it , wouldn’t call it a definite penalty
Said this the other week in the Newcastle v Everton game the other week when Gomes kicked Wilson’s foot to give them a pen, made even worse after the match when Wilson laughed and admitted he put his foot between Gomes and the ball on purpose to “win” the penalty!My understanding of a foul is impeding a player taking a shot, making a pass etc. Welbeck isn't in control of the ball and is going away from the ball, never a pen.

That’s because 99% of players, ex-players, managers, coaches etc, see no problem in a player “winning” a penalty for their team.Poor.
Do we really want football going down this road?
Crouch and Cole saying its a pen proves the myth that ex players would make good refs.
Hes taken a full blooded swing to clear the ball and is a fraction late and caught the man.
It's a penalty all day long.

Not many neutral fans care when it isn’t in their game either.
Until managers condemn their own players (very unlikely to happen) or retrospective action is taken, nothing will change.
Remember when Niasse and Lanzini got retrospective bans for diving? They were over 3 years ago and not one other PL player has been done since then!
If they retrospectively banned players for diving there'd be no football.
Like the 6seconds rule for keepers and moving the free kicks 10yards for dissent.
Completely agree. If it was up the other end on Mane I'd have been screaming for it. Easy decision for me.Hes taken a full blooded swing to clear the ball and is a fraction late and caught the man.

The ball doesn't even have to be there, he's absolutely wellied him in the foot man! If you push someone over in the box and they don't have the ball it's a penalty. Where have you got this idea that he needs to be in full control of the ball?? I didn't think it was a penalty until you see the replay and he boots Welbeck's foot. Good use of VAR this time, and a definite pen.Just because he's caught him doesn't make it a foul. Contact yes, not a foul.
He's behind the ball by some way, over stretching and had lost control of the ball.
