Another poor performance from Kavanagh today. Very random in foul detection. Never a dive by Ollie Watkins for a second yellow. Penalty correct and probably should have been a handball by Greenwood at the other end.
Since his return he’s been unconvincing
I wouldn’t say poor but average. Second yellow for Watkins was a bit harsh but right. I agree the penalty should have been given for Greenwood’s handball, so i’d say another poor performance from Gillett the VAR. I know someone would say the ball came so fast that Greenwood could not move his arms but that’s not a natural position imo. Maybe Cavani should’ve been cautioned for tripping El Ghazi which led to Maguire’s injury?
Has Gillett had many other poor VAR performances?
As an arsenal fan I remember it well that last season he made Mr Atkinson disallow a late goal from Chambers for a foul (which did not exist) against Palace which could have been a winning shot. Later it was considered his mistake and he had been out of big six games in PL until this season.
He’s been doing fine as VAR this season and I remember he had some great moments, but the handball by Greenwood was so obvious that he should’ve advise Kavanagh to come to the screen. Penalty for me so ‘Another’ poor performance from him imo.
I know he is highly thought of in championship and he is also a potential promotion. I’ve been waiting for his on-field PL debut but it is yet to come.
I wonder if any controversial moments on Gillett I haven’t noticed?
