Because that would be shit, its a contact sport.

But it’s not a grapple and grab sport.

Why do refs blow up before corners are even taken to tell people off for it? Just let them get on with it and give the fucking penalty if they do it.

Same when players are running through on goal and the defender wraps an arm round and doesn’t bring him down but fucks his momentum or balance. It’s illegal but is hit and miss whether refs call it.

Football laws have way, way too much ambiguity and allow too much subjectivity, therefore creating constant inconsistency.
 
This is Douglas Luiz's first game back after a two game suspension for getting his 10th yellow against Brentford.

This is Caicedos 10th yellow today. He should be missing the next two.
Luiz got it in the final game before they reset them all.

Have you played football before?, it's impossible not to grab your opponent - it's instinctive.
 
The discipline by Villa not to come out of their shape is awesome. Up 2 and with Chelsea having not 1 player that can break the lines they are in no danger by relinquishing possession.
