       Yellow for me. He's a long way from goal still and is to the
       left hand side of the pitch, not bearing down directly on goal.
       It's also one that I think will split opinion!

       I think the fact the decision has split pundits and fans alike
       would suggest there was a goal scoring opportunity but not an
       obvious one.
       Personally I thought it was a long way out  on the angle,
       leaving the attacker quite a lot to do, even if their next touch
       took them back towards goal

       Not a good return for Kavanagh IMO which is his first game back
       at PL Level.
       A lot of the lads from work were in disbelief it was not a red
       card due to the cynical nature of what
       Silva did…… I think everywhere other than England Refs are
       giving red Cards.
       Really poor, and again with Attwell as a VAR.

       Whilst I agree it is cynical, there is nothing in the laws that
       allow for an upgrade, if DOGSO is not applied

       Exactly, the officials can only look at the criteria needed for
       DOGSO, which are ...
       - Distance between offence and goal.  This was quite a long way
       although not too far.
       - General direction of the play.  He's wide and that counts
       against the obviousness of it.
       - Likelihood keeping or gaining control of the ball.  Ticks this
       one.
       - Location and number of defenders.  Chilwell looks a long way
       away, but he is central and that potentially makes the distance
       shorter.
       So I'd say one of those is a definite yes, and the other three
       are more maybes.  They don't all have to be met, but (and this
       isn't an official method) if we score 1 for yes, 0 for no and
       0.5 for maybe, that is 2.5 out of 4.  Is that enough to make it
       an OGSO?  I don't think so personally, any maybes question the
       word obvious, three of them majorly question it.
       There is absolutely nothing in law to say that it being cynical,
       which this undoubtedly was, should or can be considered in the
       decision making process.

       I’ve been trying to put into words why I felt this was a SPA and
       not a DOGSO and I think Rustyref covers this absolutely
       perfectly. Too much doubt for me personally, and the cynical
       nature of it doesn’t change that, as much as the whole world
       would like it to!
