    The important thing is that now we have VAR we're discussing the football rather than refereeing decisions.

    Not happening mate. The clubs want it for a start.

    Too many internet fans would never accept an offside goal going against them again.

    Words fail me on how absolutely ****ing garbage this actually is.

    Everything, not United specifically, although we clearly are staggeringly bad. All of it.

    They've ****ed football up the arse completely with all this American slo mo replay bollocks.

    I've got zero affinity or connection with any of the ****s, at all.

    Nope, overuled by the VAR official who puts the ref in a situation where he has to change his mind.

    VAR "What are you doing? You do remember that this is old Trafford?"
    Coote: "****! Sorry, I forgot. What do I do?"
    VAR "Run to the pitch-side monitor, pretend to watch for a bit and then change the decision"

    Someone might have said last season, when people were calling for monitors to be used, that they will ultimately mean refs are looking for any reason to overturn as the doubt has been sown.

    Can't remember who, smart bloke though iirc.
