    Sorry but you lot were cheated by VAR.

    Maquire should have been sent off. That would have completely changed the game.

    Had genuine sympathy for Chelsea...but then remembered you are Chelsea and started to enjoy VAR ****kng you over <laugh>

    Would be fuming if Maguire got away with thst against us...but like I said...as it's you lot:bandit:

    You reckon?

    Right now we seem to be in the not quite as **** as others bracket.

    But quite clearly more equipped than Chelsea, what with our six points and plus 6 goal difference between the two sides in our matches this season.

    I think it's going to come down to it being between us and Spurs.

    Hard to call, all teams in that group have it in them to clusterfuck their season up. If I was looking for a team showing consistency and hard to beat, it’s Wolves and Sheff United.

    I don’t think we’ll make it, our team doesn’t have the goals in them. Rashford being out has crippled us, James and Martial don’t have enough, and the ****tard won’t start Greenwood.

    Why didn’t Girou cut his toenails?

    With just one win from their last seven games, a humiliating cup exit, a lengthy injury list and a batch of new players who are struggling to assimilate, it's fair to suggest that Atletico Madrid are not exactly firing on all cylinders as they prepare for their Champions League meeting with Liverpool.

    This is the problem with VAR...corrupt minds

    From the BBC:

    "A bit more info to give you on the decision not to send Harry Maguire off for what appeared to be a kick out at Michy Batshuayi.

    The Premier League says the VAR officials reviewed the incident but did not deem it to be violent conduct, so no red card.

    Son Heung-min was dismissed for a similar incident when Tottenham played Chelsea in December - a match also officiated by referee Anthony Taylor - but both are classed as subjective decisions, and this time VAR Chris Kavanagh decided in Maguire's favour."

    There’s still half a dozen in the mix, you’re hitting a bit of form, but your 4 PL fixtures after the Watford game will show whether you’re the pick of the also rans. As you’ve got us and Spurs away and City and Sheff U at home.

    If only people had tried to warn that it wouldn't improve anything in that regard.

    I don't want to watch replays of offside goals then spend weeks moaning like a **** about what's the point of having lines in the game of football.

    You see making up rules and leaving decisions down to what ****ing mood the ref is in today just doesn't cut it for me

    The game was being spoilt then and now it's being spoilt by something different. However both is to do with officiating.

    Let's not forget,at the end of the day like in any serious sport...it has rules and fine margins separates winners from losers. Therefore VAR is necessary I'm not sure how to increase human intelligence though.

    I am enjoying watching the refs and the outdated rules of the game get exploited by technology. All other sports want to refine and perfect their art and embrace technology... football fans want an error strewn game.

    Bru...u should watch Sunday league football instead where scoring spazzy goals blatantly offside gives everyone a laugh and something to talk about in't Pub

    Lol I'm not reading all of that bru. Just saying it was quite obviously never going to eliminate bias.
