«Breaking News» West Ham's Arthur Masuaku should have seen red for his flying boot

Arthur Masuaku should have been sent off for his high-boot challenge which came down on the neck of Theo Walcott, for he has clearly endangered the safety of his opponent.

Look back to last season and the red card issued to Liverpool's Sadio Mane for his high boot on Manchester City goalkeeper Ederson - that set the standard for this type of challenge.

What has spared the West Ham defender a red card here is that Everton winger Walcott was not seriously injured, and referees do take that into consideration.

The rules state they should not - and that is why Martin Atkinson should have sent off Masuaku regardless - but you often find that referees will wait to assess the extent of the injury before making their decision if they are unsure on the severity of the challenge. 

Ederson, remember, was badly injured and that made the decision easier for the referee on that occasion.

With VAR, however, such doubt will be removed and all high boots which endanger opponents will result in red cards.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
