    I don't see that happening for years and years in the meantime we get to watch a shadow of the the sport we used to watch.

    Perhaps but the delay will be because of the archaic dinosaurs running the game. People are ruining it, not tech.

    Nah not having that it's a combination of the 2 the tech isn't ready so why use it? The people are **** yes and there will always be mistakes to argue over but the current delays in play and the fact that a goal is no longer a goal means that the sport I loved is not what it was. It's a disgrace and we should remove VAR in its current form immediately but that's not going to happen.

    I sort of like it. For 90% of goals you know that VAR isn’t getting involved.
    The ones where you get a decision within a minute or so, they are good. It’s either the team that scored gets to celebrate again or the oppo fans get a go.

    there are instances where good decisions have been ruined by VAR. but also when VAR stepped in to correct a mistake(foul in FA cup by Milwall keeper)

    Fernandez was only 11.2yrds away from the wall when he scored his free kick today meaning Liverpool are lucky that arsenal haven’t had strikers since game week 2

    All decisions can't be objectively as basically every rule carries a subjective element to it outside of pitch markings and who ball came off etc

    Nah it's ****e. The celebrating twice nonsense is the biggest myth ever imo.

    Nothing beats the feeling of the ball hitting the back of the net and that's basically a thing of history now.

    One of the weakest but one of the most interesting at the same time, ie Man U unlikely to get top half and Forest and Bournemouth competing for champions league.

    Because the idea of football being refereed by AI makes me want to shoot myself in the head.

    I'd rather eat my own **** than go to a fan meet convention, whatever the **** that is.

    He's taken them as far as he can, done a good job tbf but he seems to lack the mentality/calm head that gets you over the line. His team play like hotheads which is what he is. They still have a chance but it's looking more and more in our favour.
