Pogba dive unpunished. Uncommented on by BT.

clear pen not given.

The reffing of United since restart has been a disgrace.

Pathetic. Palace should have had two goals. These decision are utterly crooked.

I don't think they should get rid of VAR but the way it's been implemented has been an absolute car crash.
I was very keen to see VAR put in place as I felt it was away to add fairness and prevent the likes of United from getting decisions in their favour due to the influence of the crowds and coaches. However it seems to have actually provided the opportunity for an invisible person to make a decision based on, at best poor rules and at worst biased decisions.

When the level of inconsistency increases even with video evidence you have to ask questions.

Doesn’t really matter which system is in place, the bent corrupt system and officials will always favour united. Like the sun coming up.

I’m sticking a fiver on them to win the league next season. They could get an extra 20 undeserved points from VAR if this continues into next season.

The amount of decisions going their way and the amount going against the other rivals for the top four are really shady.

I don't think they should get rid of VAR but the way it's been implemented has been an absolute car crash.

It’s the referee’s, the concept of VAR isn’t the problem. It’s that the humans running it are either some of the most incompetent people ever to have fallen out of a womb, or they are as bent as a nine pound note.

Still don't think United are not all that. They have certainly improved a lot of aspects but defensively they are weak.

Radio 5: United have had seven goals against them ruled out this season, more than any other team.

I agree there is a place for it in the premier league, as long as it guided by proper rules, common sense and sensible referees / adjudicators.

Mate it's the people doing the analysing..they don't understand the game well enough.

Like the pen tonight, Kane's disallowed goal at Sheffield. If there was no VAR that goal would of stood.

A far, far better way to implement it would be to give each side three challenges a game and have only the ref to go over to the touchline and review the incident - having been the one to see it live.

This analysing every fucking incident, with some twat who doesn't understand a lot of the nuances, is killing the game.

I think part of the problem is that the refs don’t seem accountable to anyone. There’s no where near enough scrutiny of them by the press/media. The FA and Premier League don’t seem to care how bad they are or how many blatant “mistakes” they make, and any manager who dares to criticise them gets punished.
