Terrible tackle - even if his foot doesn't bounce off the ball the follow through would've seen his studs connect with Hendersons ankle.
Yes I'm an Arsenal fan but I can't understand how this wasn't a red but Xhaka got a red against City earlier this season for a cleaner tackle (although admittedly still a studs up lunge). It's the inconsistency in refereeing that drives me mad.
yeah will inconsistency of refereeing is and always will be part of the game. VAR has not done that much for that. I don't recall the Xhaka sending off. he does seem to be one of those players who is a bit marked out. actually, let me go find it and take a look
