I mean not that I'm arsed but on that VAR replay it clearly shows Smalling with both arms around Rudiger thus restricting his movement.....how exactly is it not a penalty?

Because it's deemed not ENOUGH contact? It's been getting preached for years that players are entitled to go down if they feel contact? They make this up as they go along. VAR will do nothing to solve poor decisions when the people in charge of the system are poor themselves.

I think it was because, despite the arms, don't think Smalling did enough to actually put Rudiger on the floor either way.
