What was Gross so incensed about. It looked like he was suggesting he was elbowed in the eye at the corner and that it was before the handball.

What you've just said makes no sense

Of course it does. United get all subjective decision in their favour.
Just look at the pen that wasn't given today, Fernandes plays for contact all the time and the penalties are never overturned when reviewed.

Because the incident occurred before he blew the whistle.

So ? VAR pulled it back after the whistle went, as far as I am concerned and seemin many others that shouldn't happen, once the whistle goes games over. If a decision wasn't called in time then tough tits, do you think if the l8no had flagged in the old days the ref would have restarted the game? No so bals to VAR being too slow to react in normal time.

Anyone think VAR has made football better? It's a fucking joke.

What was the other Brighton player doing on his knees ? Was he followed or just dumb ? Was the build up looked at or just the hand ball ?

I havent watched but when did the ref blow before the handball or after ?

After

 

[Chi-town blues]

In terms of positives,

1) United absolutely outplayed by Brighton, we have nothing to fear about them challenging the title

2) Ole probably keeping his job

18 shots vs 7 from rags .
5 on target vs 3
54% possession

It doesn't matter that the whistle blew. Of course VAR can intervene, otherwise you're saying that as long as the ref has blown for full time anything before that goes.

It's always been the case that decisions before the start and after full time don't affect what happens on the pitch.

If one of the starting 11 gets sent off before the game, that team can still put someone in their sport and start with 11.

I don't like that the ref can blow the final whistle and then the match can be reopened. VAR should have been quicker and said don't blow the final whistle.

In my opinion the Premier League can still do the right thing and accept the 1st final whistle.

After but before VAR had reviewed and called it.

Rags got away with one today but they are a poor team.
No amount of favourable officiating can cover up their shortcomings and they will be more than found out as the season progresses.

Absolutely nail on head. They are Dire and many will take points off them
