Oumar Niasse charged by FA

[Blue Mist]

Beware Young!!

This should not even be debated. The only thing that should be debated is how a referee who is 5 yards away can make such a stupid decision. It is him that should be banned.

Everton will contest the charge.

Manchester City forward Bernardo Silva and Watford's Richarlison have both avoided charges this season. bbc
Because they didn't dive!

 

[The Light Was Yellow Sir]

As I said, it could be straight reds only.

It’s second yellows that result in a sending off as well.

That’s not how VAR works.

Not sure anyone knows how it works, to be honest.

Because it’s currently used across several countries in Europe and anyone watching the games has had it explained a thousand times along with a myriad of articles on the matter?

Why would there have been a review??

Review at next break in play, ie after KDB shot hits the back of the net.
Review called by manager to 4th official who tells ref on radio. 4th official could also hold flag up or similar to let fans know appeal pending.

Let’s assume it’s hit Silva’s hand but the rest of the move happens as it did. Do they go back, after every goal to see if it should be disallowed? If so, how far back? Some city goals involve 30+ passes, so it could be quite a while.

As stated, the VAR watches everything and would be replaying the ‘handball’ as City break away. He’d inform the ref of the handball and if we score before he does then our goal is disallowed and the right decision happens.

It would have helped use hugely last season, especially in the big games against Liverpool, Spurs, Chelsea and the cup.

I think I’m just a Luddite when it comes to technology in football. As slow motion isn’t allowed, they’ll still get stuff wrong. I wonder what the VAR would have made of Vinny on Saturday?

Slow motion is allowed mate.

In Germany, a VAR has replays and slow mo. If he sees something he can tell the ref and the ref goes and has a look at the side of the pitch at the next stoppage. It’s used for goals and sendings off really.

I’m still not certain it’s perfect but it’s better than the shite we had in th big games last year. I’m still convince we’d have won the league had we rightlyfully beaten Chelsea. We wouldn’t have lost to Leicester missing Kun and Dinho the following game and the season would have changed.

Well the first one was always going to be against a lesser team. Now they've set a precedent, I'm just waiting for open season on us.

Our players will just have to make sure that they don't give the officials the opportunity to ban them.

In other words, DON'T FUCKING DIVE!
