The FA have written to Mikel Arteta and Arsenal to seek their observations after their comments following the Gunners’ 1-0 defeat to Newcastle on Saturday, football.london understands.

Firstly, Jacob Murphy’s mishit shot appeared to have gone out of play before Joe Willock retrieved it and crossed into the box. However, there was no definitive camera angle to determine whether the whole of the ball had crossed the whole of the byline.

There was no conclusive camera angle that enabled VAR Andy Madley to draw the lines required to make a decisi
On top of all of this there was a suspicion that Joelinton may have handled the ball in bundling it back to Gordon. VAR did not review this howeve
