Absolute joke of a decision, just like Ward’s yesterday against Everton. |  |

Shouldn’t be bothered really but it’s still football after all and it’s being ruined | |

Definite penalty according to the rules of the game, deliberate use of the arm to block the ball, players have been getting away with using arms and hands to "make themselves wide" to block crosses for far too long, it is good to see the rules consistently applied on this type of offence. |  | | |

When someone heads it against your arm, that constitutes deliberate handball? I’ve never seen anyone jump without using their arms and equally I’ve never seen a player have eyes in the back of their head to know where to move their arm to block the ball when they aren’t even facing it. Imagine the bleating on here if that was Chambers or Woolfenden against Sunderland in the 90th minute?! There would be a complete meltdown. | |

The arm is in an un-natural position, when he did not win the ball with his head, he then raised his arm to block the ball. No windup intended, just blatant and clever use of the arm. In my opinion of course. | | | |

I quite agree. It's not you who are 'joking'. The football authorities have made a complete mess of this. Their mistake was allowing VAR in the first place. | |

In a similar way full backs for years have been holding their arms at 45 degrees from the body to block a cross, then claim ball to hand. The hand ball rule needed clarification and is now being consistently applied as far as I have seen. It is not relevant if we agree with it as a rule or not. | | | |

Don’t think anyone is debating the rules. My OP states the games gone mad
The game is a shambles | |

The rule was tightened up as so many players were getting increasingly clever in using the hands and arms to block a cross or shot, to claim ball to hand all the time. Now they all know the rule, it is one of the very few clear cut rules in football. Sorry, just my thoughts on it. | | | |

i agree with basuco, as long as it's applied consistently it's good to bring some clarification.
attempting to prove intent was always very woolly and inconsistent | |

Read my original post. Didn’t discuss the rules , I said the game is a shambles and I’m glad we haven’t got it | |

That aside , Dier had his back to the ball ..this all makes sense and you can agree with every aspect ?
I understand why these rules were brought in but there has to be an element of common sense no ?
Dier couldn’t even see the ball 😂 | |

You seriously think this is better????
Games decided by a ball striking an arm in an arbitrary box? Goals are really hard to score, their rarity is part of what makes football so special. I can’t get my head around how anyone can think more penalties for innocuous reasons is a good thing.
It’s being completely ruined in my opinion. | | | |

not seen the dier incident, but if spurs gained an advantage from the ball hitting dier's hand then the attacking team should get the advantage.
as long as it's applied consistently (which is my doubt) then i can't see a problem, players will soon adapt. | |

Watch the Dier incident and if anyone can agree with this ...they need seeing to | |
