Callum Wilson channels Jose Mourinho in hilarious response to West Ham VAR controversy

However, referee Chris Kavanagh was sent to the pitchside screen to assess a potential foul by Pablo Felipe.

Kavanagh then decided to disallow the goal after Pablo’s arm obstructed Arsenal goalkeeper David Raya.

Wilson has since taken to social media to post a hilarious Jose Mourinho video that sums up the situation.

Give us your response to Callum Wilson’s VAR heartbreak? 😫

The right call? Or harsh on Pablo?

Callum Wilson posts iconic Jose Mourinho clip after disallowed goal vs Arsenal

Set pieces have arguably been the biggest talking point throughout the 2025/26 Premier League season.

Arsenal started a trend where players surround the goalkeeper and make it almost impossible for them to claim crosses.

It now happens at almost every set piece in every Premier League game, regardless of which teams are playing.

Ironically, West Ham have now had a goal disallowed for doing the same against the team that has perfected set-piece chaos.

If fouls were always given for what Pablo did to Raya, dozens of Arsenal goals would have been ruled out this season.

Sum up your feelings on that result if you can… 😢

Heartbroken is an understatement! 💔

One can only assume those are also Wilson’s thoughts, as he posted a clip of Jose Mourinho on his Instagram story.

In the iconic video, Mourinho said: “I prefer really not to speak. If I speak, I am in big trouble, in big trouble, and I don’t want to be in big trouble.”

The former Chelsea manager refused to speak about the referee’s performance, as he knew it would get him into trouble.

Wilson clearly feels he cannot say what he really wants to say about the disallowed goal against Arsenal.

His Mourinho reference was a clever way to express his disapproval of the decision without saying it himself.

Hopefully, Wilson will get another opportunity to make the headlines against his former club, Newcastle, next weekend.
