another thing that was a ridiculous decision today and VAR took no action with Nobles tackle, he was out of control, and caught the United player with his studs. as I said earlier this Var is meant to help correct obvious errors, that report from Riley (one of the worst refs I've ever seen) is total ballshit. 4 errors so far is crap and that's not taking into account this weekend.
there is no point in having a monitor if they don't intend on ever using it. I wonder if Kane would have got the penalty if he hadn't scored. why didn't Rose get a penalty (I know this is in general, but not doing 2 separate posts)?
Old Salah will be loving all this, with the VAR ref not having the balls to do anything, he will still chance his diving at the slenderest of touches, if the ref calls a pen he knows it won't be overruled, if the ref doesn't because he is unsure he will escape the yellow for diving.
the member I now have on ignore who was involved and has friends in the association perhaps he can ask how Wijnaldum can run straight into a player that's off the ground attempting to get his head on it, and win a free-kick. That was more him making contact, surely he can't be obstructing if it's impossible to get out the way, and more Wijnaldum making sure he is contacted, a bit similar to why he believes Kane didn't get a penalty v Newcastle or Arsenal.
I was all for VAR, but now I hope we get better officials (some hope). I would rather 1 in each half, and 1 a bit like in Europe but the side there isn't a linesman, and ones that help a ref, instead of waiting before using their flag. I know the game of the 70' through to the 90's was slower, but god the rules and laws have changed so many times they don't know how to keep up with them
