I really hope Jose goes fucking berserk in his interview. This stupid ruling needs to change and it will only happen if the hight profile managers apply enough pressure.

Fuck VAR. I thought that was a top example of game management. We could have had another couple, but we looked so comfortable to see the game out. Really feel for Jose and the players after that.

no, fuck the handball rule. VAR is just upholding that law

What about the ndombele incident for handball that they didn’t even check? Journos saying we should have had a handball too.

Zero accountability for the people behind the screen so we'll never know why they're so inconsistent in consistently applying this terrible rule

Great first half. Pragmatic second half against a shit team. But MY GOD, what is that pen? We shouldn't stop being agressive against this awful team, but we paid the price of our pragmatism and lack of end product.

What the fuck did our incidents not taken a look by VAR but theirs would. The refs are so fucking dims and bunch of cowards. Is it really we didn't argue and hence not given a look.

Implement some conssitencies for fucking sake. Atrocious of a standard.

I don’t like the way sky really gloss over some calls and make more of others. It seems to have an influence over what they review

once the law is made, its not VAR’s fault or the refs fault. it has to be enforced.

as much as we shout at the ref, once he’s seen the replay he has to give the pen as the rules are very clear. if he didn’t, he’d be in trouble.
There has to be line where it is and isn't a handball. And case to case it's up to the ref. The rule doesn't say that that is a handball when it came from behind

Hope Jose doesn't say anything to the media as you know the FA will fine him for 10+ games to make a point and with Sacramento getting that red card, we need our manager in the dugout.

I am absolutely disgusted this is what footie has come to. I hated VAR already for what I feel it has taken away from the game, but this is beyond stupid. The number of penalties already this season given to players simply defending and not deliberately using their hands... just don't get it.

It's so laughable I am not even angry. Wasn't a free kick. Wasn't a pen (Dier was fouled irrespective of whether it hit his arm) and we should have had a pen the other end. They need to sort this out, but we've dropped two more points and that's that.
