    Not getting the ball isn't a foul. What offence did he commit? There is a list in the Laws....
    I agree the Kane penalty claim was unclear because the push was very small but if the penalty had been given it wouldn't have been overturned by VaR.

    Kane got a FK on Saturday near the centre circle for getting nudged in the back whilst he got between the man and the ball...exact same scenario but different part of the pitch to the penalty incident against the Goonz

    Refs are weak in the PL

    There seems to be an agenda with VAR in the premier league to not undermine the ref. They appear to be taking the clear and obvious mistake to the extreme.

    The ref makes the decision and VAR confirms it, except in the case of offside or a handball.
    I assume that they'd also apply it in a case of mistaken identity, but there hasn't been one yet.
    Makes it virtually pointless for most situations, so it shouldn't be used.

    VAR should only be used when Spurs go to the Etihad, scrap it for every other game.

    Everyone getting Varred at one stage or another...no point looking for a small victory for your Chavvy mind, Bob.

    Different games and it was all nice when it was going your way.

    Var is **** but it's funny when it goes against other clubs

    We haven't been ****ed over by VAR, we've been ****ed over by **** refs. VAR just hasn't overturned them.
    Nothing's changed, we just have to wait longer for them to **** it up.

    Yup. But var is meant to overrule the refs when they make a mistake. Ergo vars screwed you too!

    I think you've been misled about what VAR is for in the Premier League.

    Of course it was nice...just like scoring a goal is nice

    Just like it's funny when the other team misses a penalty and your team doesn't

    VAR wasn't Spurs's idea...it's a part of the game now <laugh>
