Jamie Carragher ignited a debate on social media by questioning whether PGMOL chief Howard Webb had any influence over the decision to escalate William Saliba’s yellow card to a red during Arsenal’s match against Bournemouth. Initially, referee Rob Jones issued a yellow card to Saliba for a foul on Evanilson in the first half of Saturday’s Premier League clash at the Vitality Stadium. However, VAR intervened, resulting in the yellow being upgraded to a red card.

As a consequence of the red card, Saliba is now set to miss Arsenal’s crucial upcoming game against Liverpool. Carragher, a former Liverpool defender, took to social media to hint that Webb might have had a hand in the decision after he was spotted on the phone in the stands during the game.

Following the controversial dismissal, Arsenal supporters voiced their anger, chanting against Webb and the PGMOL in the stadium. The red card added to Arsenal’s struggles, as the score remained 0-0 at halftime and Mikel Arteta already faced a selection headache due to injuries to key players, including Martin Odegaard and Bukayo Saka.

In response to the backlash, the Premier League issued a statement explaining the rationale behind the decision. According to the statement, VAR had recommended an on-field review after determining that Saliba had denied a clear goal-scoring opportunity, which led the referee to upgrade the yellow card to a red. This decision further compounded Arsenal’s difficulties in what was already a challenging match.
