Clearly in the "Anti-Willo" camp. Going back to the penalty, all I was doing was looking at it from Mike Dean's standpoint. Well he doesn't move his hand towards the ball, does he? The ball is going away from him until the forward kicks it and then it strikes him on the forearm, which is in front of his torso now, almost immediately. Only you, Willo, could pretend that there's a standpoint from which that even resembles a penalty. A totally incompetent decision and one for which the ref derserves the universal condemnation he has received. And another matchday distorted by s*** officials.

If Dean believed it to be deliberate handball, then why didn’t he also award a yellow card to Chambers? I thought that was the ‘law’ these days. I refer to a FIFA document : Page 67 of the document gives "additional information for referees, assistant referees and fourth officials". It adds: "Referees are reminded that deliberately handling the ball is normally punished only by a direct free-kick or penalty kick if the offence occurred inside the penalty area. "A caution or dismissal is not normally required."

Have a look at the TV footage and Mike Dean's position on the field of play.He would have seen what we saw on the TV.He has awarded the penalty because of the hand movement. Anyhow, I'm not acting as Mike Dean's 'Defence Lawyer' on here. Edited by Willo (31 Dec 2017 7.40pm)

Anyhow, I'm not acting as Mike Dean's 'Defence Lawyer' on here. Edited by Willo (31 Dec 2017 7.40pm) Have a look at a) the direction of the ball's flight before it was kicked; b) the direction of the ball's flight after it was kicked and c) the distance between the two players and the time taken from being kicked to striking the defender on the arm. You do the math, Willo. Clue: if it doesn't hit him on the arm it hits him in the midriff. As for the ref's position on the field there are three observations: a) if the ref is in the wrong place, that's his mistake; b) if the ref doesn't see clearly that it's a penalty, it's not a penalty and c) no matter where he is he can see that the players are right next to each other. Oh, and there are these people called "assistant referees" as well.

It suggests to me that FIFA believes there to be varying degrees of ‘deliberateness’ in a handball.

It's still a red card if it's DOGSO and it's still a yellow card if it's unsporting behaviour. Maradona's Hand of God goal, correctly officiated today, would have been handball and also unsporting behaviour so a yellow card.

Mike Dean was in a good position and his view was unimpeded.It appears he is saying to Wenger "I am sure" regarding his decision.From his viewing position the left arm moved towards the ball and made contact with it.If Chambers' hand was down by his side, never moved and the ball was struck against it, I am sure no penalty would have been awarded.

Argumentum ad ignorantium. The players were about a foot apart. That fact renders any other consideration irrelevant.

Distance is irrelevant if the referee deems that an arm has moved towards the ball intentionally and made contact with it.Dean obviously felt Chambers extended his hand purposely in order to make contact with the ball.

The ball was kicked at his arm from a distance of about a foot, for Pete's sake. Until it was kicked it wasn't going anywhere near the defender at all. So that's bollocks. HTH.

Dean was in a good position to judge the distance between the players.As far as was concerned Chambers extended his arm to make contact with the ball. One can debate this decision until the "Cows come home".At the end of the day Dean made a decision in real-time and only he will know for certain on what basis he awarded the penalty.Dermot Gallagher having seen it on TV (And probably numerous replays) felt it was the wrong decision.
