       West Ham vs Liverpool: Anthony Taylor

       Paqueta has escaped (for me) a definite yellow card already.
       Will be watching Taylor closely today.

       For me that’s a red card, he’s nowhere near the ball, studs up
       and over the ankle of McAllister.  How it’s not even a yellow
       when the referee is right in front of it is truly baffling.
       Curtis Jones and Cristian Romero will be looking at that in
       astonishment after their reds earlier in the season for possibly
       less than that given that they won the ball and followed
       through.  Paqueta wasn’t even close to the ball!!  No intent to
       play it!

       Great offside call by Adam Nunn. Looked quite obvious but Tim
       Robinson on VAR agreed (took 2 minutes mind)

       Incredible how a FIFA official is rewriting the laws of the game
       to suit himself.. Gakpo should have put the ball in the net and
       goal be given. Taylor has no business blowing that up...

       God knows what has happened now, Areola has thrown the ball down
       in open play it seems, and when Gakpo has run in Taylor has then
       stopped the play. It was potentially a foul against Areola prior
       to that, but Taylor seemed to signal play on.

       As Taylor didn't even give a YC, maybe VAR should have called
       him over to the screen. At least with a yellow, you could argue
       it wasn't incorrect and no review was required.

       Did AT give a foul against Paqueta?  Could that be classed as
       missing a key match incident rather than C & O, or does that
       only apply to off the ball incidents?
       Mind you, he seemed to be looking straight at it so not sure how
       he missed it.

       The Paqueta challenge looks really bad in slow motion, but much
       less so in real time.  There really isn't a lot of force, so I'd
       say a caution would have been the correct outcome.

       Is this chap really going to Euro 2024 as one of our referees or
       did I dream that?

       As much as I find him overrated and at times infuriating (the
       Paqueta challenge completely unpunished today, Forest’s denied
       pens last week, amongst many other incidents), he’s getting
       unfair flack for the Areola/Gapko incident.  For me, he blows up
       as he thinks Areola is hurt and possibly concussed.  He dropped
       the ball and didn’t stop looking up, so Taylor within his rights
       to blow the whistle and avoid a potentially nightmare situation.
       Does anyone else agree or did you see it differently?
