True enough but he should have kept his flag down until the phase of play had ended. Linos have been keeping their flags down for miles offside, for one to flag prematurely when the player is actually fucking onside is a scandal.

I think we need something that might not have longer overall effects that could get us or our team ! Like maybe a minor earthquake that causes the stadium and all its inhabitants to disappear down into a sinkhole and never be seen again.

The way things are going I'm not sure that this isn't a real list of very genuine possibilities to happen tomorrow.

It's beyond bad, and Tuchel thinks they got it spot on.

Hope those concerned with the VAR decision against West Ham at least have the decency to explain the decision and apologise given it clearly appears wrong.
Won't charge feck all, but surely we're all supposed to be accountable for our actions.

There's been three red cards this season in 58 PL games. One was Nunez headbutt which the ref dealt with and not VAR and the other two were clear as day 2nd yellows to Chelsea.
At some point it becomes clear that refs are getting pressure to keep things 11v11 and not to "ruin" the tv spectacle.
(By the way, the French top flight has had 24 reds in a similar number of games)

I’ve just watched it, an absolute sham of a decision by both officials.

Just watching the Merseyside derby. Coady’s disallowed goal demonstrates everything that’s wrong with the VAR offside decisions. He doesn’t get it because his shoulder is literally cms ahead of Milner foot. He’s only 4 yards from goal and he scores with his foot. His shoulder has no bearing on him scoring. If someone scores with their shoulder or other body part fair enough but if they score with their foot then their shoulder, butt etc is has no relevance on whether they will reach the ball or not.

25 red cards now. This is 100% a yellow in England and the ref probably gets told he ruined the game by the commentator in the PL if it was a red. French refs don't seem to care about that.

Yeah, but there have been some ridiculous red cards given in France - just some really bad decisions. Can't we find a happy medium?

I was told when I was in France last week that the officials were told to clamp down on all fouls. There has been some ridiculous reds in Ligue 1.
So it looks like you have two ends of the extreme in two leagues.
