Mikel Arteta slammed two "scandalous" penalty decisions after his team was held to a goalless draw.
On the hour mark, Arteta felt his team should have been awarded a penalty when Dan Burn tugged Gabriel's shirt as he tried to meet a dangerous free-kick.
Demetre's verdict was 50%.
Dan Burn is taking a huge risk. The referee didn't see it. You cannot see his position because he is blocked off. He tried to grab at his shirt. The problem is that the VAR won't say if he's right or wrong.
There is a clear error. There was a meeting where they said they wanted the referees to make more decisions on the field and for the VAR to intervene only when there was a clear and obvious mistake.

You will decide if it is a penalty when you drill down into it. Where they have the time to watch it, I think it's 50%. The referee was on the side of the referee. It's easy to justify a penalty when you watch the replay. I can understand why they didn't give it.
Arteta was raging on the touchline in the last moments of the game when a cross hit Jacob Murphy's arm.
There was a right call and no penalty.
This isn't a penalty, I think. Had this been given, I would have been shocked. You can see how close the player is. The man is trying to get his arm out of the way. Is his arm in a good position to defend that ball. Yes, I would. Is it coming at him fast? It came very quickly at him.
Mikel Arteta would have been incensed by that.

In the final 10 minutes of the game, Bryan Mbeumo outmuscled Ibrahima Konate to fire a third past Alisson.
In a dual with Bryan Mbeumo, Konate would win nine out of 10 times. Excellent job to Bryan. Shouldn't it have been a violation?
The decision and goal were correct according to De Reverend's verdict.
I felt that Mbeumo was too strong. I think Mbeumo does a good job. I think Konate caught Mbeumo with his foot and put him down.

Bournemouth's Marcos Senesi avoided a yellow card for his tackle on Manchester United's Donny van de Beek, which is set to rule the Dutch player out for a long time.
The 25-year-old was distraught as he walked off the field after being caught by Senesi.
There was no foul, according to De Reverend's verdict.

This is a good example of how accidents happen on the field. Senesi definitely gets the ball and he has to follow through as he is in a good mood.
The shins clash when van de Beek enters him. Both players are to blame for the shins clashing. I don't think it's a foul for me, it's just an unfortunate injury.

Should the VAR upgrade the booking of Wolves forward Hwang Hee-chan for a reckless challenge on a Villa player?
The yellow card was the correct one.
I think it's the right call, according to demot. The player hasn't come a long way, so it's a yellow card. In order for it to be a red card, he doesn't have enough speed and intensity.
The key is that he is low. The contact is being looked at by the referees. The ankle is below it. I don't believe it's dangerous. When it's halfway up the shin or knee, they want to give a red card.
I would have been surprised if a red card had been issued. If a player is more airborne than sliding in, the referee looks at it. I felt the call was correct because the VAR stuck with the ref.
