VAR in regards to City related incidents.

Perhaps we should incorporate allowing sides to score against us into our tactical planning because on the balance of probability this is probably a good thing?

Straw man argument:

"A straw man is a common form of argument and is an informal fallacy based on giving the impression of refuting an opponent's argument, while actually refuting an argument that was not presented by that opponent. One who engages in this fallacy is said to be "attacking a straw man."

Lol, I'm saying that the fact that a goal was scored against us and incorrectly allowed to stand is probably a bad thing rather than a good thing. Not a straw man argument, just a statement of the bleeding obvious.

Cannot have it both ways. If their goal is disallowed, ours goal doesn,t occur.

I’d rather us not have to equalise a goal that should not have stood. Regardless of yesterday, second part of my post stands for me.

Maybe in this alternate reality, it gets chalked off by VAR. We continue to play, the Wolves keeper makes another few great saves and we miss a load of sitters. Then Wolves score a legitimate goal in the 93rd minute, on the break, as we're committing men forward. We get no points.

If that goal was chalked off, it gives us no guarantees of anything.

To say 1-1 minus a goal for bad a decision, automatically gives the other team 3 points, is interesting logic.

Lol. Not as interesting as your logic.

Being an American I've gotten a firsthand view of what technology has done to American football and baseball. It's brutal and I hardly watch them anymore. The decisions even out in the end as hard as that is the believe.

That’s what human minds like to think. That given enough cycle repetitions, any randomised activity will eventually even itself out.

And we’re completely wrong.

Yes, at various points in time there may be the occasional brief equilibrium achieved, but for the vast majority of the time the imbalance of true randomness is staggering.

His logic of we scored so we would have gotten the points because it finished 1-1 is correct

As was his logic that the goalkeeper continues to make loads of saves, and City continue to miss a load of sitters. And Wolves score a goal in the 93rd minute. The type of logic you can understand maybe.
I prefer to disect what actually happened. THE officials awarded a goal that was CLEARLY offside and a handball, my type of logic.

No VAR will favour Liverpool. Media are behind them, that sort of shit affects referee's decisions, even slightly, at important situations sometimes.

Their goal should not have stood, no one on here is debating that. The concept of because we scored one, that would have resulted in a 1-0 win to being flawed logic is.

Having watched the entire world cup I think VAR just needs applying on a few things.
1) offside goals
2) violent conduct
3) obvious dives (results in red card)
4) inside/outside box fouls

I think the penalty decisions have been a bit of hit and miss. The premier league have to copy the WC format as well where everything was shown on the big screen.
