Mucker1884 Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 If you’re specifically paying reference to “industrial challenges going unpunished against Derby”… there are no rules! If it was football generally, then sorry, I can’t help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's been a change in approach to officiating from upon high to try and limit the number of "soft" fouls given. It's mentioned here https://liverpooloffside.sbnation.com/liverpool-fc-tactics-longform/2021/8/11/22619144/premier-league-2021-22-official-var-officiating-changes-explained-in-depth-positives-negatives (perhaps not the best source but it's the clearest explanation I could find with a quick search). Right now I think we are seeing something of an overcorrection due to that approach where referees in general are letting too much go and in turn some teams are really exploiting it.
