Alan Shearer has expressed strong disapproval of referee Michael Oliver's decision to issue a red card to Arsenal's Myles Lewis-Skelly during a match against Wolves. Shearer argued that the foul did not warrant a red card, as it lacked intensity and posed no real danger to an opponent. He voiced concerns over the VAR's failure to intervene in what he deemed an obvious mistake. Despite the setback, Arsenal secured a victory, raising questions about their previous encounters with questionable refereeing decisions this season.
It should have been a yellow card, it is a terrible decision, Shearer said. There was no speed, no intensity, it was not endangering an opponent and was 90 yards from goal, so never, ever a red card.
What worries me is there is an assistant VAR and a VAR who have seen several replays and they think it is serious foul play.
Alan Shearer has slammed the terrible decision by referee Michael Oliver to send off Arsenal left-back Myles Lewis-Skelly yesterday. The Gunners were reduced to ten men.
Still, this is not the first time this season that Arsenal have been on the end of some strange decisions, with the north Londoners appearing pretty unlucky at some key moments.
