Its an obviously violent foul that should be red carded whether or not the on field ref sees it. The first job refs have is to ensure player safety. Compromising that because of some ambiguous "clear and obvious error" requirement is insane.

"The panel has five members, made up of three former players and/or coaches, plus one representative each from the Premier League and PGMOL"
Do they say any more about who the panel members were? I would expect the PL and PGMOL to usually back their own officials especially if Arsenal have just called them out publicly, and for all I know the former players could be Michael Owen, Gary Neville and Jamie O'Hara.
Probably keep them anonymous to avoid them getting the abuse from the minority of arsehole fans (every club has them) like those who racially abused Bruno G and Willock.
Arsenal need to grow up, they’re acting like babies jesus
I guess we just have to acknowledge that everyone else is seeing things differently or interpreting rules differently from lack of clear explanation than the refs on the pitch and on the panel.
Their determination on the Gabriel foul is mind boggling. I could easily with them, or anyone saying it’s not a foul, recreate the situation given my experience playing soccer (football or whatever anyone wants to call it). I am 100% that if someone crosses a ball similarly and I stand behind all 4 in this panel (or anyone else) and push /shove the back of their neck they’re gonna be arguing they my were fouled. It’s like none of them understand physics and motion.

Complete and utter bullshit
Lego head won’t be happy reading this. Back off to legoland you go.
No shit.
A panel of idiots
good thing Arsenal fans are very calm about the situation
Who is on the panel, Carragher and Neville defending their money?
I love how the goal was chalked up to ‘“we see nothing conclusively wrong because we don’t have the camera angles to prove otherwise” and the panel are like “yeah that’s all right with me”
Absolute joke but sure
Make it make sense :)
Its just pure gaslighting now.
I don't like this new trend of arguing about calls FOREVER. After the Monday following a match pull up your pants and move on with your lives ffs.
