Ref Watch

[WestGorton]

Do we know why Foden went down holding his face first half??

Never seen a single replay.

Never is there. Foden doesn't fake. Never has. It's the scumdome.

**** bottled it full stop!

How far previously can the incorrect decision be before people will accept that it probably shouldn't affect the goal? I'm sure you could find a 'foul' before Salah's strike that if given would have meant he wouldn't have been in a position to shoot.

There was one, and we got a free kick for it, only to give it to their keeper to throw out, Cancelo show his poor defending, and put Salah through one on one.

We all knew they would play their part.

One question would it have been disallowed at the other end?

I don't see how you can a ref watch when it's not them refereeing the game. It's VAR who's the ref, that dictates how the game is reffed. Want proof look at that ridiculous delay in the Leeds/Arsenal game cause they didn't have access to technology. The ref can do his job without it but nope game gets delayed for 40 minutes or so.

Today's game and Foden's disallowed goal proves it for me. If VAR is used in the first half for every foul that Taylor let go and called them, no worries chalk off the goal. But Taylor was letting the game flow and challenges go but as soon as we scored a different foul is called to what was let go all game. It's utterly ridiculous.

Yes. It was a shirt pull. That’s not the issue.

Bernie nailed It for sure.

So they'd have ruled it out for Liverpool at anfield lol

 

[Ali B's Heel]

It was a foul fella and I’d be pissed of if we had been on the receiving end . Not our day mate

Fabinho's arm is on Haaland first, leading Haaland to stumble slightly so he grabs Fabinho's shirt. Fabinho initiates so 50/50, let play go on, as he did

Yes. What aren’t you understanding?

Fucking deluded.

The issue is, it wouldn't have gone to VAR if it was the other way around. We all know this

I agree with Bernardo completely.

I thought Taylor had a very good game, and he created a very good game of football by the way he reffed it, but VAR has to interfere, and the whole point of football, goals, is spoiled by it.
