It's not skynet for football. Referee's are making the decisions. Albeit fucking awful decisions.

Think its really highlighted how shocking bad even top level refs are. The get out has always been, 'they only see it once', 'normal speed' etc. None of that applies now and yet every weekend there are multiple errors.Referee's are making the decisions. Albeit fucking awful decisions.

Ex refs who aren’t going to be worried about upsetting their pals.

The refs in the studio should have been a warning on how this would work. Week in week out you'd see errors made and they'd go to whoever they had in the studio who would claim the ref was right despite everyone being able to see on the replays he was wrong!Peter Walton in the BT studio is one I can’t abide by.
Re the handball, I think if the ref gives the pen VAR would have ruled it out for the ball coming off Silva's arm before TAA's. I believe any contact with an attackers arm in the build up to a goal/pen results in a free kick to the defending team.
I think its a strange one as what would be a handball offence by an attacker isn't always going to be an offence by a defender.
In which case it would be a free kick to Liverpool and the game stopped and potentially no goal?
no because the referee didn’t give it so as play went forward and resulted in a positive impact for Liverpool the goal has to stand
I meant if he had given the first handball
But the referee deemed neither were
That's not what they've ruled. The PGMOL have said the goal stands as VAR does not show Alexander-Arnold handling the ball.no because the referee didn’t give it so as play went forward and resulted in a positive impact for Liverpool the goal has to stand
Isn't the whole point of VAR to correct the clear mistakes made on the pitch?But the referee deemed neither were
What's the biggest piss take is if any managers or players call the ref's/VAR out, they get fined for bringing the game into disrepute. Even though they are clearly in the wrong...
And you get the PGMOL rushing out statements to back up the ref and then having to change them later when everyone can clearly see they've messed up.What's the biggest piss take is if any managers or players call the ref's/VAR out, they get fined for bringing the game into disrepute.

Exactly, even if their shocking decisions have actually ruined the match.
Sky were trying their hardest to get Pep to bite as well!
He was stood right in front of it as well so it proves how bad he was

Don’t really see the problem. The confusion is changed in the handball rule which makes it much more open to interpretation none of these or those in our recent games would likely have been given under the old rule
Yeah, I did feel sorry for Pep. It must be hard to bite your tongue when they are clearly wrong.
The patronising thank you to the officials will probably land him a fine by the FA.
VAR ruined it - the decisions were correct
What annoys me is that Liverpool and YNWA is now treated like its the national anthem.

I agree the early "penalty" incident wasn't a pen because of Silva handballing it first.
Salah was offside though.

It can be a little bit cringey all the love in. Unless youve been to a big game at Anf
Advantage surely?
On that specific incident, Aguero..? Play to the whistle man!!! Started shouting and hollering with the ball at his feet 10 yeards from goal!!
Did they even VAR check that one at the time?
Christ hahaha. Mental isn't it?
