The var thread

How is that not a red, they need to get better people reviewing the video

All red card and penalty decisions the referee has to go to the monitor and look at it himself.

thought you might have spotted the sarcasm.

How fat is Bergwijn aswell, looks like a Sunday league player

I honestly don't see that being a huge improvements tbh. It's the same people in the var booth and with the whistle at the end of the day.

At least he can explain his decision to the players.

Fair point. Was funny the other week when Coady was seen saying 'you're the ref and even you don't know why it's been disallowed'.

I can't defend VAR there. That was a BLATANT red card.

Thank you. Didn’t want to get into another arguement/discussion! ****ing nuts. VAR has totally lost it. I actually said in pub when VAR was reviewing, they wouldn’t give it. Actually pleased me

It seemed that they put such emphasis on reviewing it in real time that they lost sight of the fact that even though it looked worse in slow motion, it was still as clear a studs-up challenge as you will ever see. I just lost most of my respect for Michael Oliver for sitting on the fence and not getting involved in the decision.

 

[Libby]

Hahahaha they've just admitted they've got it wrong.



A fairer game though

Once it has gone to VAR , is he allowed to get involved ?

Genuine question .

Will he be sent off then ?

Red cards are supposed to be viewed by the on field referee now using the monitor.

 

[Osvaldorama]

Just a disgrace all around. How can you admit that it's a mistake DURING the game.

Surely they should just send him off now?? ****ing joke. It wont matter because chelsea have won anyway, but that is shocking. What if lo celso had scored the winner

Lo Celso will score the equaliser now.

 

[Libby]

Lo Celso will score the equaliser now.

Luckily it didn't affect the result for Chelsea. Did on Monday though.

 

[San Tejón]

It’s ridiculous that the decision makers defended their decision by claiming that there was nowhere else for Lo Celso to put his foot.
I find putting mine on the ground to be quite simple.

So after the last few weeks does anyone still think that handball and offsides are the only issues with VAR?

Handball is a rule thing rather than VAR. But no penalties are not the only issue.

Meant handballs and offsides

 

[tomw24]

Meant handballs and offsides

Or penalties and offside?
