I don’t know as it didn’t happen.
Conspiracy theorists would suggest that it definitely wouldn’t have been, but with little evidence apart from gut feel.

But he was instructed to do that, that is my problem with it, and the evidence gave him no choice but to over turn it, even at that point he could have said "goal because I've been letting that go all game", but it would have been even more heavily debated in the media.That doesn’t mean that he can’t go and check to see if there was a foul in the build up to a goal.
The right result today would have been a draw, both teams played hard, and both had their merits, but VAR has determined the result imho.

Don’t hugely disagree. It was up to Taylor to decide whether he thought it was a foul when he saw it again. He thought it was.But he was instructed to that, that is my problem with it, and the evidence gave him no choice but to over turn it, even at that point he could have said "goal because I've been letting that go all game", but it would have been even more heavily debated in the media.

We all know full well at a baying klanfield it wouldn't have been.I don’t know as it didn’t happen.

Fabinho's arm is on Haaland first, leading Haaland to stumble slightly so he grabs Fabinho's shirt. Fabinho initiates so 50/50, let play go on, as he did
That bit wasn’t shown.

Having contemplated it for a few hours, I can’t really class this as an awful or even a poor refereeing display. I think on balance he was fair to us. He gave the goal, it’s not his fault if some pedantic twat in the VAR truck was scouring the footage for a reason, any little reason, to disallow it.

It’s a contact sport though. Shirt pulls mean a foul, an arm on an opponent isn’t necessarily a foul.Fabinho's arm is on Haaland first, leading Haaland to stumble slightly so he grabs Fabinho's shirt. Fabinho initiates so 50/50, let play go on, as he did
Yeah right you're not naive are you lol fucking years of watching decisions there and at the swamp would prove me right.No, you believe you know. Neither of us is clairvoyant.

40 years of bad decisions at Anfield is the evidence that I’d use. Same as when there was 2 handballs within 30 seconds of them scoring years ago & no VAR.
It’s ok playing devils advocate. Pep isn’t one for excuses but he knows.
