It just gives the VAR refs even more licence for corrupt decisions whereas in real time the on field ref has to be sure (in his mind) he’s made a valid and reasonable decision. The VAR refs can justify anything to fit their agenda.So subjective and open to manipulation it's frightening!!

Absolutely. I guarantee that it will be used to award a penalty against city in big game at some point this season.

VAR won't overule the refs,i thought that it would be giving pens but there is the mystery threshold that no-one can explain,Walton says he doesn't know what it is even,funny how rags have 4 in 5 games though...

it isn't, but that doesn't mean it can't or shouldn't, apparently the bar is "quite high"
Been a disaster so far has VAR, very disappointed
Can't be that high, as they all seem pissed ;-)

to be fair all the rag penalties have been decent shouts, though if it was us we wouldn't have got them all

A cynical man may say they like it just as it is with subjectivity from silly humans. They need to tighten it up and be absolutely clear what the rules are. As you allude to in it's current setup it is merely another tool open to manipulation.So subjective and open to manipulation it's frightening!!

Don’t know why UEFA are looking into our finances when Bournemouth funneled £34M to Liverpool for Ibe and Solanke. Not a fucking prayer that was “fair market value”

Has Ward-Prowse ever hit the target ?
