how do you explain Var not checking dippers offsides, and when they do check its for like 5 secs, every other team get offsides checked for like 3/4 mins. Salah and Mane are still diving n still getting dubious penalties and free kicks that lead to goals.has Salah done a ridiculous dive to win a penalty this season ? like he was doing on a regular basis last season.
as for the second goal you mention, I said that is a marginal decision that could be swayed in their favour which it seems it was , but was more making the point in seasons before they could let Salah be yards offside and get away with it , in fact they scored a goal at West Ham miles offside last season and it was given - that same goal could simply not be allowed with VAR. tight/marginal agree can be swayed in a teams favour which is still clearly not acceptable.
That's the problem with it, they now use the whole 'if there's contact' thing they a penalty is awarded and VAR is used to justify this decision, as in this case, but anybody who had seen it can see quite easily that it's a dive and yet it was still awarded. I can't remember if the ref gave it and we were still at the stage where VAR wasn't overturning the onfield referee or if VAR told the referee to give it. Either way it was a dive and just like last year Liverpool cheated and were given 2 points that they didn't earn. There was another one earlier in the season that was very similar where they got a penalty from a clear dive but again, I think that was when VAR wouldn't overturn the refs decision, possibly against Chelsea as I know they had poinysbtaken off them and given to Liverpool but I can't remember the exact circumstances now. To be fair Mane also dived against Villa and got a card for his troubles, that was the referee though and not VAR. I'd also class the disallowed goal against Palace as a dive even though it didn't lead to a penalty, it was more of a defensive dive which is a new one on me!The panel are saying it’s a pen because of the contact :/
regardless. All I’m saying - is previous seasons dive or not refs could just give a penalty when they felt like it- it’s harder to do for them nowadays. I’m not arguing the point Liverpool still have cheating diving wankstains at the club, but least if they go down without contact it’s a lot harder to give the decision.
Exactly this.I think all the refs have been told exactly how the law should be interpreted.
It's as though VAR is being implemented by the creators of Rocky llll.........Teams being fucked over by VAR ;-
Man City - owners from Abu Dhabi
Wolves - owners from China
Sheff Utd - owners from Saudi Arabia
Aston Villa - Egyptian owner
Teams gaining from VAR ;-
Man Utd - American owners
Liverpool - American owners
Spurs - UK owners
Another joke !Fucking disgrace
That non-decision was amazing.. How could the referee/VAR not give a red card immediately? Was VAR actually used? It reminded me of Ali Benarbia’s deserved sending off versus Millwall years ago. No different, apart from the outcome. I may be wrong but I make that the 12th time VAR has f**ked us over in all competitions since the start of the season. We haven’t had even one thing that we’ve ‘got away with’ under VAR, unlike other teams I could mention. As someone else here has pointed out, Wolves, Sheffield United, Villa and us have all had the worst of VAR, while Liverpool, Spurs and United just continue to ride a wave of good luck (or should that be ‘corruption’?) Absolutely outrageous again tonight.. mind, as Sebastian Blue has pointed out, some other commentators are starting to notice (though as I’ve said before, I’m not going to hold my breath waiting for the twunts who are screwing up our game to do anything about it!)Can't see assaults either
We have,written complaint on oliver and the same week a heated meeting with riley and the other clubs,the result? alti and oliver for the derby,there is literally nothing we can do so stop bashing the club all the time,pleaseIf City don’t hit the roof & do something about this they’ll deserve all that’s coming , it could get worse .
The ref was right there as well,i didn't see on the telly if he made the var sign or not,didn't seem like h did,or he could have checked the monitor,salad,mane or rashford and that's a 3 game bad,it's ridiculousThat non-decision was amazing..

I don't think anything will come of it, I suspect the club have written off this season due to our poor form (poor form which I'm convinced has been caused by the way we are held back by referees and VAR and our rivals are given a leg up when needed) as to do anything else would damage the league. If the reputation of the league was damaged then the money coming in would drop and that would affect us too so I suspect we won't do or say anything about it.This (corrupt) system was brought in as an aid to assist referees and to ensure fairness across the board within the game..!
What a fucking joke..!
The foul on Rodri tonight, another disgraceful decision against City, should have resulted in an immediate red card.
The ball even went out for a throw in seconds after so the game had stopped..
VAR should have been in the refs ear the and told him to send the **** off, no excuse.
Nothing, play f'kin on..
There's too many decisions going against us now for it to be coincidence..
Can you imagine any of the G14 clubs having to put up with the shit we have copped for?
Not a f"kin chance..
We can all see it and I'm certain the people in positions within the club can see it too..
We are either keeping our powder dry or there is a shit storm of biblical proportions coming over the hill...
Please let it be the latter and we show the system and the integrators up for the cheats they are..!

It hasn’t been just us questioning VAR for sometime now.
