Ian Wright predicts another Howard Webb apology after controversial Liverpool incident




Ian Wright says Howard Webb might need to make a phone call apologising to Aston Villa after Dominik Szoboszlai's opening goal for Liverpool.


Szoboslai scored after just three minutes at Anfield, firing past Villa goalkeeper Emi Martinez



The goal was subsequently checked by VAR with Mohamed Salah standing in front of Martinez in an offside position, but after a swift check it was given and Liverpool took the lead


it was reported on the Premier League's matchday live show that Villa coaching staff complained about the call to give the goal



Wright


What we saw is that Mo Salah is obstructing Emi Martinez's line of vision,"


"so Howard Webb is probably going to have to make another phone call this week at some stage because that is offside, and that is interfering with Emi Martinez.


"I don't understand any more."


He'd later add on Twitter: "No time to talk about goals, quality play or key moments because all we discuss in the studio is VAR decisions. Boring. Just incident after incident. Taking the enjoyment out of the game."
