Dermot Gallagher returns with the latest Ref Watch and says incidents between Alejandro Garnacho and Destiny Udogie were not penalties.
INCIDENT: Manchester United wanted a penalty after Alejandro Garnacho felt he was pulled down by Tottenham's Destiny Udogie.
DERMOT SAYS: "I didn't think there was enough in it for there to be a penalty. But as a defender, why would you do this? Why would you run the risk?
"He doesn't have to do that. It doesn't look right, does it? He's got hold of him, making contact, but he's not pulled him down. I'd have been really surprised if a penalty had been given."
INCIDENT: The same two players were involved in an incident at the other end as Garnacho committed a foul on Udogie inside the area.
DERMOT SAYS: "I don't think this is a penalty either. There's minimal contact. Even Richarlison, the closest team-mate to him, doesn't think it's a penalty."
INCIDENT: In the build-up to Luton's late equaliser, Burnley felt there was a foul on goalkeeper James Trafford, but VAR did not review the incident. Afterwards, Burnley co-owner JJ Watt said it was disgraceful referee Tony Harrington and VAR missed it.
DERMOT SAYS: "I thought it was a foul but a lot of people don't think it was a foul.
"That's why I don't think it's one for VAR. It's the referee's decision. Shay Given, a former goalkeeper, doesn't think it's a foul.
"So there's a lot of people who would side with me and a lot of people who would go against me. There's nothing in law saying where a player has got to stand.
"There's nothing in law to say he's got to get out of the way of a goalkeeper.
"But he does look at the goalkeeper, so he's taking a chance. I think it's a foul, and the only way you're going to get it is if it's given on-field."
