It was a textbook tactical foul. It was a dangerous situation, Saka is fast and you're on the wrong side of him so take him down and take the yellow. Happens all the time and had the situations been reversed I would want us to do the same and we almost certainly would.

It is cynical but you need a bit of cynicism in football.
I believe it used to be called 'taking one for the team' and has been happening for many years
