He’s been very good so far, a typical Pawson performance and has
let a very entertaining match flow.

Not too sure that goal should have stood, comes of dorgu’s arm
unintentionally then he scores with the next touch

Fair play if you saw that come off Dorgu’s arm because I
certainly didn’t. I agreed with Tierney in VAR who said it was
inconclusive. I saw nothing to suggest it definitely hit the
arm.

Both Dorgu and Maguire were correct no handball decisions in my
opinion.

I think Craig Pawson has been excellent. He has let the game
flow and his calm refereeing style has been well received by
both teams.

Yep.
Back to the Pawson we know of and fully justified of Webb to
appoint his match to him.

I've seen two photos on social media which look like the ball
touches his arm, but can't find a decent clip - does anyone have
a link?

Pawson has been outstanding and he has emphatically shut the
doubters (including myself) up about his appointment to the
game. Exceptional game from him.

Credit where it’s due Pawson was superb , he didn’t really have
anything to do but refereed what was in front of him , he let
the game flow and stayed in the background

What Do you mean by it looks like? Are you sure ie conclusive if
not the goal has to stand. Tierney in var correct in my view.
Very assured performance by Pawson, the only possible flaw was
allowing Fernandes to keep chatting after he had explained a
decision and asked to walk away.
