Ref Watch is back to debate another batch of controversial decisions from the weekends football. After a weekend of questionable red card decisions, disallowed goals and penalty shouts, former top-flight referee Dermot Gallagher joined Rob Wotton in the Sky Sports News HQ studio to go through each contentious call.Read on for Gallaghers verdict... MATCH: Chelsea v Manchester United, Sunday No penalty was the right decision here, says Gallagher INCIDENT: Chelsea appeal for a penalty after John Terrys shot appears to hit Daley Blinds arm.SCENARIO: A cross comes in from the right and Terry sends a volley towards goal; Blind throws himself in front of the shot with his right arm outstretched and blocks the effort. The ball hits Blinds left arm, tucked in close to his body, and goes out for a corner. No penalty given.GALLAGHERS VIEW: Correct decision.GALLAGHER SAYS: The ball strikes him (Blind), he does not strike the ball. The arm outstretched is not the arm the ball strikes. It hits the arm tucked into his chest and it would have hit his chest anyhow - I think it would have been very, very harsh. Also, it has come at such speed and when you look at it further on, the referee cant see it.MATCH: Chelsea v Manchester United, Sunday Daley Blind brings down Diego Costa on the edge of the box INCIDENT: Blind pushes Diego Costa over on the edge of the Manchester United area.SCENARIO: A ball is played over the top for Costa and, as he tries to drive into the penalty area, Blind shoves him over. The striker falls inside the area with a free-kick and yellow card awarded.GALLAGHERS VIEW: Correct decision.GALLAGHER SAYS: Definitely outside the area, definitely a foul and definitely a yellow card. Hes got a promising attack but Costa delays a little bit and then goes down inside the area. For me, its a good decision by both parties because the assistant has probably said thats where it happened [outside the box] and no [it was not denying a clear goalscoring opportunity].MATCH: Chelsea v Manchester United, Sunday Louis van Gaal complains to the fourth official INCIDENT: Full-time whistle blown on 96 minutes as United try to counter-attack.SCENARIO: Manchester United clear a Chelsea corner and try to counter-attack but are stopped in their tracks as the referee blows the full-time whistle. Six minutes added-time had been announced but, during that time, Chelsea had scored and a substitution had taken place.GALLAGHERS VIEW: If hed have played on, nobody could have argued, the fact he didnt play on left him a little bit vulnerable.GALLAGHER SAYS: I think he (Van Gaal) felt aggrieved because six minutes was put up and in the six minutes Chelsea scored and a substitute, Ander Herrerra, came on. United attack and the only winner then can be United because Chelsea arent going to get the ball back [before the final whistle] and thats why hes aggrieved because the whistle goes smack on six minutes. Unfortunately, hes realised that and the fourth official is in a position where he cant defend it.MATCH: Manchester City v Leicester, Saturday Pablo Zabaleta was on the line when he was brought down by Christian Fuchs INCIDENT: Christian Fuchs trips Pablo Zabaleta as the Manchester City full-back breaks into the area.SCENARIO: Zabaleta cuts inside Fuchs and is tripped as he tries to get into the area, despite trying to jump over the challenge. Replays show the foul was on the line. A free-kick was awarded.GALLAGHERS VIEW: Technically incorrect decision, however no choice but to give a free-kick rather than a penalty.GALLAGHER SAYS: The line is part of the penalty area and I think this is a really, really tough call. If you slow it down his foot is on the line, but what I would say is that you can show me as many pictures as you want of his foot on that line but you have to say the referee could never, ever be sure where he was and he is compelled to give a free-kick. Although you can show that his foot is on the line, and I would have to say yes, that is a penalty, its not possible to give that. He has to be convinced its a penalty but, in my view, he cant possibly be.MATCH: Stoke v Everton, Saturday Should Jack Butland have been carded for bringing Cleverley down? INCIDENT: Everton awarded a penalty after Jack Butland brought down Tom Cleverley.SCENARIO: Cleverley is played through on goal, knocks the ball away from goal to try and go round Butland and he is taken down by the goalkeeper. Penalty given but no card for Butland.GALLAGHERS VIEW: Correct decision.GALLAGHER SAYS: Its a foul, and its a foul he (Butland) doesnt have to make because the ball is going away from goal and I also dont think it is a yellow card. The referee has done well there.MATCH: Southampton v West Ham, Saturday Victor Wanyama saw red for this foul on Dimitri Payet INCIDENT: Victor Wanyama sent off for a tackle on Dimitri Payet.SCENARIO: Wanyama attempts to tackle Payet but misses the ball and takes the West Ham midfielder down with his back leg coming round in a scissor motion. The referee gives Wanyama a straight red card.GALLAGHERS VIEW: Correct decision.GALLAGHER SAYS: Whats interesting is that I dont think the referees gut reaction is red card, but I think when he runs it through his mind or whether he gets advice from the fourth official looking in, hes taken his time and has come to the right decision. Its a bad enough tackle, its a scissor tackle and a tackle he doesnt have to make.MATCH: Bournemouth v Arsenal, Sunday Flamini should have been sent off his this tackle, according to Gallagher INCIDENT: Mathieu Flamini is shown a yellow card for a lunging tackle on Dan Gosling.SCENARIO: Flamini dives into a tackle, two-footed, on Gosling around 30 yards from his own goal. He plays the ball but also the man. Bournemouth are awarded a free-kick and Flamini is shown a yellow card.GALLAGHERS VIEW: Incorrect decision.GALLAGHER SAYS: All I can think is the referee thinks hes (Flamini) played the ball. He has got the ball, I dont think there is any doubt about that but he is out of control, its two-footed and hes also caught the man. He plays the ball but also plays the man and that is the difference; you cant use the ball to go through the man. Kevin (Friend, the referee) sees him get the ball and he doesnt compute anything else, you see him say to the players hes got the ball. I think thats why he yellow cards him.MATCH: Bournemouth v Arsenal, Sunday Giroud should have been shown at least a yellow card, for this challenge, says Gallagher INCIDENT: Olivier Giroud evades a booking after treading on Adam Smiths Achilles after the full-back had past him with the ball.SCENARIO: Smith has the ball on the right touchline around halfway, Giroud goes over to challenge and stands down on the back of the defenders foot as he moves away from him. Free-kick given but no card shown.GALLAGHERS VIEW: Incorrect decision, should be at least a yellow card.GALLAGHER SAYS: I think this is a really bad tackle, I really do. He should be punished with at least a yellow card. Whether he means it or not I dont know, but he catches Smith right across the Achilles with his studs. On any given day, in a feisty match it could easily be a red card but it has to be a minimum of a yellow card for me. In that game [the referees] tolerance level was a bit too high.MATCH: Manchester City v Leicester, Saturday Was Sergio Aguero offside? INCIDENT: Sergio Aguero scores a consolation goal for Man City with a header late on.SCENARIO: Aguero is clearly in an offside position as the ball is played but moves back in an attempt to get onside before the cross comes in from the Man City right. When the ball is delivered, Aguero, unmarked eight yards out, heads into the far corner. The goal is given despite Leicester appeals for offside.GALLAGHERS VIEW: Offside, just.GALLAGHER SAYS: I think its probably just offside but its very, very difficult for the assistant to give because hes moving back. The assistant has to be in line with the second rear-most defender, which he is, but I think the fact that Aguero comes back and then goes forward again, thats what deceives him.MATCH: Newcastle v West Brom, Saturday Tiote saw his goal chalked off for offisde INCIDENT: Cheick Tiotes shot from range finds the back of the net but is ruled out for offside despite not hitting another player.SCENARIO: Tiote shoots from long range and the ball curls past the wrong-footed Ben Foster in the West Brom goal but the goal is ruled out for offside with Aleksandar Mitrovic, standing in an offside position, adjudged to be interfering with play as he blocked the goalkeepers line of vision.GALLAGHERS VIEW: Correct decision.GALLAGHER SAYS: When it is hit, the assistant knows that Mitrovic is stood in an offside position, what he doesnt know is how he is interfering with the goalkeeper. When Lee Mason goes across, the assistant has said to him this is where he is and I think between them they have come to the right decision.MATCH: Rangers v Kilmarnock, Saturday Higginbotham was quickly shown a red card after this challenge INCIDENT: Kilmarnocks Kallum Higginbotham shown a straight red card for a high tackle on James Tavernier.SCENARIO: With the ball bouncing near the touchline, Higginbotham stretches to try and put the ball out of play as Tavernier tries to control it. However, he goes in high, with his studs showing, and catches Tavernier on the follow through. He is swiftly shown a red card.GALLAGHERS VIEW: Correct decision.GALLAGHER SAYS: Its definitely a red card and this is an occasion where by quickly getting the red card out, it stops everybody coming in. Like in the Bournemouth game, everyone came charging in because they didnt see a card. On this occasion, the tackle is very high and very dangerous so its a red card every day of the week. By getting the card out so quickly, the referee has stopped it escalating. Also See: Premier League video Fixtures Table Live on Sky Marvin Bagley III Kings Jersey .
