Yep. Huge one for both sides tomorrow. Hopefully a cracker. Arsenal ravaged by injuries though, so they'd probably take a point now.Quote:

Not sure why the linesman was in a rush to call offside with VAR there. Villa robbed.Quote:

Don't see how players can be fatigued after so few matches. Maybe it's a case of Neilsen inadvertantly using psychology on them. The more he keeps saying they're fatigued, the more they believe it. Hes been saying it since their pre-season game v Crawley.

Have they played much more games than us?Quote:

Scandal.

I don’t know how as a ref you can watch that on a screen and think it’s a foul and change your mind. I just don’t understand it.Quote:

The West Ham and Newcastle goals ruled out by VAR absolutely should have stood.
The disallowed Villa goal, the linesman has made an arse of it, but the whistle went and the City players stopped. If the whistle doesn’t go, Ederson saves Coutinhos shot. Probably.
Absolute shocking decision a disgraceQuote:

VAR is run by officials. They are the ones at fault.
VAR places doubt in the referees mind. The individuals make the decisions yes, but the VAR system is making those decisions more difficult.Quote:

You’re factually correct but as some users are incompetent/biased/corrupt or a combination of those, the system is flawed and not worth using. How can you ensure complete objectivity when it’s open to abuse?Quote:

:agree: I think VAR is being properly scrutinized in England at the moment because there isn’t any widespread bias towards the big clubs or any football establishment. Certainly down there football media types don’t seem to hold any strong bias to the clubs they were associated with. Up here, VAR will strengthen old firm bias because only certain incidents will be looked at and those decisions will be scrutinized by a media who (most of us agree) have an interest in keeping their mates in the old firm happy.Quote:

Oh I say !
Another peach of a goal wiped out by VAR
Brighton 2 v 2 Leicester City
Brilliant strike as it was definitely the right decision imo the offside player tried to play the ball.Quote:

I don’t really see how he can be deemed to be interfering with play if he doesn’t touch the ball.
It's not a clear and obvious error though. It's needed a forensic examination of millimetres to rule out a cracking goal. Totally wrong IMO.Quote:

I wonder if Brendan may walk after this, he's had a go at the hierarchy in the last few games about not being prepared and recruitment etc, he wants to challenge top 6 not struggle down the bottom.
I’m not sure what the rules are tbh. I think it’s probably because such a good goal was scored 😂Quote:

Brighton are a class side these days. Potters done a great job. Only a matter of time before a big club comes in for him.
Justice for MacAllister... brilliant free kick
Brenden getting found out a bit. Decent manager but wont get another big shot because of things like this.
That be Rodgers away.
He’ll get sacked soon, but I feel sorry for him. That Leicester team has needed freshening up for the last few windows. They have only spent £15m this summer. The likes of Forrest have spent near on £150mQuote:

Roy Keane just had a right go at the players for that performance.
Schmeichel and Fofana are huge losses. They are playing Ndidi out of position at cb and that Luke Thomas is probably one of the weaker starting left backs in the league. Rodgers is a good manager and did well in winning them their first ever FA Cup. I think they need someone with fresh ideas to get the best back out of their attacking players and sort out their leaky defence.Quote:

Very soft but probably a foul. Excellent breakaway and goal. United very fortunate. Not sure its clear and obvious but English refs need VAR to decide what to have for breakfast.
I can't believe the game was stopped.Quote:

Of course it's clear and obvious. He gave a foul against McTominay 5mins earlier for a similar shove.Quote:

Mctominay shove was two arms in the back.Quote:

Do you honestly think that wasn't a foul?Quote:

2 arms, 1 arm - both were fouls. I'm all for letting the ge flow but you still have to call fouls.Quote:

Arsenal well worthy of the goal, but Man Utd will do nothing with that defending.
