VAR - 2020/21

VAR has to be being undermined on purpose by PGMOL, there is no way the officials can display this much incompetency for so long for it to be anything else.

It's a quick fix, mic up the refs and we can hear their conversation with the VAR official.

All it would have took was for the VAR official to say in the refs ear he needs to look at that challenge on Gundogan (or for the ref to ask VAR official if he needs to look at it). The ball goes out of play the ref watches it back on the screen and talks through what he's seen and the action he's going to take.

VAR used correctly will be a huge benefit to the game, this bastardised version and those responsible for its implementation/interpretation are killing the game.

Yes, they only changed their opinion twice.

"it's a great challenge"
review shown, clear doubt in the pundit's voice
"er, maybe he's,.."
decision upheld
"VAR happy, play on" yells the commentator.

It was bizarre when Bernardo wasn't booked relatively early on for a clear trip, but that decision was as good as most of the rest of them. A liverpool fan mate is gobsmacked by the Jesus non-foul in midfield.

You can always tell in a televised UK game when there's a mistake as the commentary shut the fuck up whilst they're either fed or thinking of how to spin whatever has happened.

When they know its an incorrect decision they'll be a long pause and then they'll either hope the game has moved on, one will talk about something completely none related or they'll talk about the wrong decision as though its correct.

Ha ha, if you’re on a fishing expedition, you’ve got me. How was that obstruction? Werner got in front of Tielemans, who then kicks Werner. The position Werner was in means he was in control of the ball.
That’s never obstruction & nailed on pen

Not fishing at all, i'm genuinely confused why this incident has got so much attention. No way is Werner in control of the ball. He comes from behind Tielemans whose already playing the ball, whats Tielemans supposed to do in that situation?

Pull out of kicking the ball I guess...ridiculous as it sounds as he probably hasn't intended to kick Werner, but does
 
The referee assaociation are fucking cowards. They have consistently made huge fucking errors and continue to do so even with the introduction of VAR.

As said above, get the referee mic'd up and the VAR ref so that it can be at the very least fed through to the tv studios for all to hear

Instead they hide behind their wall of silence knowing they cannot be held accountable - why all the secrecy !

Changes needed
 
Shit you not just watched the Fernandes interview on sky where he says he didn’t think he touched the ball but the referee told him that he did touch it and that he had to have touched it for it to be onside ! I’m fuckin speechless

Don't think it'd make any difference, they'd still be hard faced and blag it as they do now. Reminds me of Westminster.

You need new, fresh, young people to embrace the technology
The dinosaurs (Mike Riley)just want to protect their mate
They fear if the overturned decisions get too high we might ask why they are so shit!
Like people haven’t cottoned in already
Peter Walton is the poster guy for everything wrong with professional referees.
 
Fuck var fuck var fuck var
Fuck pigmob fuck pigmob fuck pigmob

Nothing more needs to be said but I will.

The equipment is being abused by corrupt and incompetent people.

I just watched a replay of the goal on the BBC website. It's clear that Fernandes does not touch the ball. It's blatant cheating by the VAR and referee to allow that goal.

I suspected that VAR was being used to cheat. But its the fact that the cheating is now done openly and unashamedly that is shocking.

And it's quite sad and depressing that we are treated like mugs by condescending pricks like Peter Walton who knows we have to accept his bullshit excuses and lies.

I don’t disagree that there’s nothing Tielemans can do, but regardless, he’s kicked the back of Werners calf, so it’s a clear foul. Kicking him accidentally doesn’t alter the fact that he kicked him.

I’m sure there’s a ref who posts on here who could potentially clarify what the law states as I cba looking & have no idea if there’s anything which states about an accidental foul?

I agree, it would go down as "careless" so wouldn't be carded but still a foul.

(I'm not the ref though, I'm just agreeing)

The way i see if Werner gets to the ball its a penalty all day, but as he doesnt Tielemans is the player in control and about to play the ball Werner just sticks his foot in and impedes him. I'd love to know too i'm clearly in the minority on this one, pundits, refs and fans but I cant for the life of me work out why, :)
