Alison was clearly going for the pass to Salah that’s worked a number of times. A mistake I’ll accept.

But Ake walking through Liverpool is something I wouldn’t accept if I were a Liverpool fan.

Imagine that this was a “big 6 team”. The outrage would be 24/7. I don’t know how wolves fans haven’t lost their minds

I agree with your reasoning as to why it’s unfolded how it has but I don’t agree that people think this a foul cause they’re holding on to something that may seem more substantial.

It easy to think that considering there’s 3 more controversies that people will move until something sticks but the foul was the last part of that sequence which is why it may of took a bit of time to get to in peoples heads.

Force of the push is subjective. We could speculate all day. But two hands on the back is objective. Which I was always taught that’s a foul.

When a defender is in a tricky spot with the ball at his feet. They will fall to the ground with a tap. 99 times out of a 100 it’s a foul. And no cares cause that’s just how it is. Joelinton gave more than enough reason for that to be a foul and had the other 3 calls (out of bounds, handball, offside) hadnt of existed, this would still be as controversial.

If the goal was disallowed because of the foul. This doesn’t get spoke about 30 seconds after the incident.

It’s far from controversial to say that that’s a foul… because it is one. Sometimes you have to look at how it may of been handled had it gone the other way. I don’t think Newcastle would of said a word had it been a foul.
