50/50 is still a foul ... and who has the most to lose ... sniff the smelling salts, ffs

 

It's not nonsense, what we saw was cheating. I agree it should work all ways. I get fed up with seeing it, costantly trying to take the shirt of a players back or hoying him to the ground, it's even worse at lower league level because the refs are ****. I get the opposition has got to do what it's got to do, but if you get pulled up on it, as in this case with var, you pay the consequences, well...unless Fernandes sends it skywards of course.

 

He's finally realised being a **** costs him.

 

Wasn’t there something about how long a player can grab a shirt/hold a player.

nobody really knows the rules and some ‘appear’ to benefit from the interpretation/ VAR more than others.

 

I find it unfair that the ref didn't make him take it again.

 

It's never been a rule that shirt tugging, holding and wrestling is allowed

 

So which is the foul then...it's both of them jostling

 

I do agree there can be a great difference in strength, if you hoyed my lots new lad Lenni to the ground, I'd be pretty pissed off, whereas if you did it to our big lad Andrews I'd say he's big enough to look affter himself, but someone chose to have var, so it's doing it's job. Again it's one of those fine lines, but var is full of controversies like that mate, it don't make it wrong though....what I'm seeing looking in is Man Utd haters hating.

 

I think once was punishment enough, he really should have let someone else take it, he gets way too emotional about stuff.

 

If Fulham get one it's the right decision I suppose

 

Yeah to be fair mate, I don't know what the rule is, if it was on a Sunday park no one would care. I'd personally rather not have var and just stick with goaline technology, the latter about the only thing that works as intended. Even automated offside is still nonsense, it don't play within the spirit of the game.

 

Sesko should've taken it.

 

Lol....you get my point mate, you got it perfectly.

 

That's how it works

 

I wasn't paying enough attention, was he even on the pitch at the time?...I think not...maybe that's you joking.

 

Don’t even need jostling. Run into the defender and fall over. No risk, high reward.

 

Patiently waiting for his first red card for violent conduct so I can say ‘SesKO’.

It’ll happen and I’ll be there.

 

Yup...I think the Man Utd manager needs to show a little bit more confidence in his players, keep looking at the ground or the monitor, or burying his head when Fernandes steps up, is not psychology that would fill me with confidence.

 

Well there is that.

Should have been seen in the first place.
