angle is just wrong . How can someone draw a line from that perspective?

For clarity, clear and obvious error doesn't apply to offside as they are objective. Offside is offside. I do have concerns about the accuracy of the technology though, so I think it should be clear daylight for VAR.

Watching the 11 Sports coverage. "it's (City) a very big squad". Aren't all the PL squads the same size then?

Looks like a pixel is enough to be offside now.

There is absolutely no way the West Ham player’s shoulder is behind Raheem’s.

Makes absolutely no sense that “analysis” line.

Pep to Arteta: "Get the birthday boy on and finish this."

Me??? I'll get me boots on.

VAR 1 v 0 City

Let's see how it goes across the season

Expect City games to last over 100 minutes from now on with all the VAR reviews. Night games will be finishing roughly at 10.45pm. Should be fun.

Trams may need to alter time tables

SMS Message: Please tell me VAR hasn't been introduced to disallow goals where a striker's little finger is offside?! Absolutely ludicrous, and I'm no City fan, I assure you. from Ady, Leicester
