VAR (PL introduction 2019)

[i kne albert davy]

The most obvious offence on the wba disallowed offside goal when u watch the replay is that minulet twice pushes Barry in the back (more of a foul than the one on Salah). It should have been a pen to wba as that was the first offence

Not in a million years would WBA get that call.

Agree

See still a matter of opinion, and the sight of Captain Dunsel having to go and watch the telly during the middle of a game is quite frankly a bit sad.

Every decision is. But if you read the rules on offside and pulling back both calls were correct.

I do agree on the ref going to a screen. They should empower the guy watching remotely to make a decision like they do in rugby and cricket. He has all the technology to help him. That should stop the players crowding around the ref too,

There's no rules in football, pedantic I know but if you watch first foul is Barry receives a push in the back penalty for West Brom was the correct decision.

Just do away with referees and have a big "Britain's Got Talent" like buzzer suspended above the centre circle that the man in the van can light up whenever he wants.

I know he irritated Sky a bit, but that seems harsh.

Yeah, Liverpool fans must be ecstatic, VAR's just got them into the 5th round...

You think they deserved a penalty? If I grab your shoulder you don't go down and start rolling on the floor.

 

[IWasHere]

That's your opinion mate i thought Salah proper dived for the pen and WBAs goal should have stood so all a matter of opinion.

Same

 

[citytilllidie]

How many players are going to throw a 'Salah', when this VAR starts in earnest? Shocking decision.
If Barry had done the same when he was pushed by Mignolet, he'd have been booked.
VAR is starting off horribly

GazBaz was clearly 2cms ahead of the last Dipper, but in the vast majority of those calls the defence usually has to chew on it, unless the defence plays their home games at Anfield or The Swamp.
