I think VAR is short for "Variable"
The only clear and obvious error it failed to address yday was Son red card imo.
The only other error was Everton should have had a pen.
you don't think Son was fouled?
he made enough contact, and had he given it that the rest of the game would of changed, even if it meant we lost, a good chance Son's season wouldn't be damaged after the Gomes tackle
If Son had gone down on the initial contact he'd have got it but it was so obvious he had balance and then leapt from his right foot. They were right not to give pen.
That Dele handball was the right call IMO

The clue that it wasn't clear and obvious was in the 3 minutes it took to analyse it. Nobody can say for absolute fact whether it touched mina first.
I did think the Sanchez tackle on Richarlison was a penalty thoughThe clue that it wasn't clear and obvious was in the 3 minutes it took to analyse it. Nobody can say for absolute fact whether it touched mina first.
Plus Mina impeded him anyway
I did think the Sanchez tackle on Richarlison was a penalty though
It’s one of those where anywhere else on the pitch and it’s a foulI didn't I thought Richarlison trod on Sanchez, also Richarlison thankfully handed helped himself by spending half the time on the floor. Thought Sanchez dealt with him well but that moment was certainly hairy.
As the guy was throwing himself to the ground every two minutes I'm pleased that it wasn't given. How the ref can continually just wave play on - surely at some point you either give a foul or a book the guy for simulation?It’s one of those where anywhere else on the pitch and it’s a foul

Yes but the tackle didn’t make him fall. So he hasn’t prevented son from doing anything. Son chose to fall to the ground.that’s not the rules though.
did the defender win the ball - no
he’s made contact and influenced the game. If he hadn’t dived in or wasn’t there. Son wouldn’t have fallen over.
So should have been a penalty regardless of Sons actions.
So should Son have been given a yellow for simulation?Yes but the tackle didn’t make him fall. So he hasn’t prevented son from doing anything. Son chose to fall to the ground.
i don’t believe diving should be encouraged - even if it’s my team.
