What like blatant handballs not given, that are picked up by VAR and still not given?

I’ve explained my view on VAR on the offside thread btw, can’t be arsed repeating it here.

You failed to understand and now youre creating a seperate debate .
 
Read my original post and let me know when you figure it out please... i specifically describe no contact dives... var has issues, but im pointing out the things we dont fall victim too that everyone seems to have forgotten were rife


Rife? How many zero contact dives resulted in pens last season? It's all about initiating and exaggerating contact.

erm yeah !! believe it or not it had a major role in var being introduced in the first place !! look if anyone took the time to read they would already have taken note of the fact I'm saying var has issues, but I'm pointing out areas it's helped.

I'm just pointing out that the vast majority of dives involve some form of 'contact' so wondering how big an issue it actually was.



If you don't know the answer you could just say so.

exactly and therefor m original post is accurate
 
;)
Yep...the trouble is VAR did a very similar thing on the first day of the season in the City v West Ham match, it repeated it in the Leicester spurs match so it is now stuck using that standard.

Either the offside rule needs to be rewritten or VAR needs a 30 second time limit to make a decision ... otherwise these decisions are here to stay.

I was at the game and VAR was a joke...just as it has been from the first game I was at when it was used.
Yep the one for you against us was a joke too. I agree with you and what they said on MOTD that it should be decided in a few seconds as we otherwise it’s not clear and obvious! I’m sure you won’t lose sleep over the Blades being mugged ;)
