I seem to remember a comment along the lines of you need some luck sometimes when Milner was 3 yards offside. Didn’t hear that today.

Watching the Newcastle v Everton game, and it's tempting to imagine what the score would be if it was played in 12 months under VAR and how many would stay on the park.

In all fairness, Pickford should have went imo, no attempt to get the ball.

Fully agree. That's one of those clear errors (same with Newcastle's winner) that VAR has to overturn.

Hmm, how the fuck has Sissoko not got a red at the end of that game as well, shove and a headbutt WTF
That's a 'çoming together of heads'. It was a bit like Nasri. If we get a red for a headbutt, I want the recipient to be sparked out. ;-)

Can I assume the commentary team and pundits didn't include a qualified referee as is often the case when they discuss the laws of the game? I thought it might have been offside at the game and the liner flagged fairly quickly. Also, why weren't several Watford players booked for surrounding the ref and shouting at the linesman both before and after the decision?Thought the BBC commentry team was clueless as to why the goal was given. Even in the studio they were clueless.

It seemed like they discussed our opening goal far longer than they discussed the highlights of the game itself.

Noticed they really dubbed down the crowd noise for our game.

First time I've watched MOTD in ages. I can see next season being quite interesting with VAR. There will probably be more penalties, more goals chalked off for offside, and more sending offs. In general, I reckon there'll probably be more goals in games where a player is sent off but fewer in games where the sides remain equal in number.

Ah, Hernandez, you can take the boy out of 'that lot, but you can't take 'that lot' out of the boy.

Virtually brushed aside Rondon's offside , but spent nearly ten minutes discussing Ster;ings goal , BBC are tw*ts , for a national broadcaster who are supposed to be impartial they do a good impression of MUTV and Redmen TV

I think they viewed the Rondon offside as payback for Pickford staying on.
It's also nothing like as big a story as City right now, and the rarity of a ref/linesman discussion and overrule.

I thought it was a bit more than that tbh, normally both are like rutting stags, pushing foreheads together, Sissoko butted him, sure if it was on Djeko it would have laid him out for a fortnight lol

My my, Lee Mason. What a performance.
Not even a booking for Pickford's rugby tackle, and what looked a clear foul on Sigurdsson in the area later on.
I’ve been of the opinion since I first noticed him, City v Wigan (Zabba 1-0) that he is the very worst ref.
