Far be it from me to defend PGMOL.

They suck. They've sucked for a long time.

But comparing apples to oranges on this particular call is disingenuous at best.

And I'm not talking about West Ham fans. I'd understand it coming from them. It's pundits and fans from City, Liverpool, United, Chelsea. It's just strange.

I mean, did you see Bernardo Silva's tackle on a corner in the box against Everton? That was a footnote on Reddit.

This play has article upon article calling for rule changes.

I really don't get it.
