    fouls are all subjective, however offsides aren't, and they're all correct.

    As to Liverpool, ref was obviously giving them the cards they should've got last week.

    I think VAR fails to achieve its intended outcomes.

    I'm not against tech improving the game, but VAR doesn't. It just adds another layer of subjectivity

    And weighing up the benefits vs the negatives, I don't think VAR does anywhere near enough to justify its continued use.

    ^^^ That said, if Spurs had been ****ed over by VAR today, I'd be in favour of it of course <laugh>

    The best bit of MOTD is reminding Liverpool fans that wasn't a sending off, that goal should have stood, and Spurs took all 3 points <laugh>

    Just seen Curtis Jones foul on Bissuma

    His leg actually bent on impact, so close to a broken leg

    Dirty ****s

    The way Gary Neville was yapping on during the game, you could have been mistaken for thinking he use to play for Liverpool. Sounded like he was crying when Spurs took all 3 points.

    Fair play to Klopp, that was a very fair response he gave there. I was expecting tears and drama but he was measured and reasonable, caught me by surprise but that was the Klopp I remember from a few years back who was really likeable.

    Hmmmm you think it evened itself out? ... how many seasons went by without a penalty been given against United at Old Trafford under Fergie? ... how many times did Arsene Wenger say 'I didn't see it' about blatantly obvious decisions not given against Arsenal?

    Evens out my arse ...<laugh>

    VAR was a great opportunity to level the playing field - particularly against the Sky 6 bias / benefit given ... unfortunately it is failing because it is being operated by idiots ... and therein lies the real problem now ... not the technology itself ...

    Watched the game sparingly whilst at work then had a few pints of Liverpool tears.

    Glorious evening.

    Tbh we only got VAR cos of whiney bitches like you.

    Remember you hissy fit after you bottle top 4 to us by losing 3 nil?



    Or when you lost 2-1 to City on New years day?

    You whined for days instead of accepting there may be human errors.
