VAR thread

[Charly]

The FA are looking at sinbins fit tactical fouls and dissent.

They cant even get VAR right, last thing they need is this

VAR **** up in PSG game. Clear foul by Gordon.

[RedReet]

Another **** up.

Unbelievably bad Var review. I'll say this again Var is bringing more corruption to the game not less.

They will never mic up the ref and var room for the crowd or TV to hear as it will expose their shenanigans.

Practically last kick of the chelsea Brighton game, the ball hits the chelsea defender and goes out for what would be a corner, but the ref judged that it was a handball and gives a penalty. Then var check and decide it wasn’t a handball. But then they restart with a drop ball giving chelsea possession, instead of awarding the corner. Like I can understand why they do it that way, but still feels a bit wrong.

What is the reasoning? If the ball is dead, why does the VAR check change anything?

[baitman]

Making it up as they go. What rules

[S-RED]

ref blew for pen before ball went out so had to give a drop ball when overturned; mad.....

Oh, okay

Naaa the ball was well out before he blew his whistle, but I guess because he hadn’t awarded a corner, var can’t do that- just overturn the penalty decision.


Wouldn’t be that big of a deal normally, but when it’s last kick of the game and they were 1 goal behind- would have been a good opportunity to send the keeper forward and roll the dice

i agree, but welcome to the world of bonkers rules

VAR all over the place again this weekend, VAR gave that pen against us but looked at similar incident in the Villa Arsendl game and decided it wasn't a pen.
There was a foul in the Sheff Utd Brentford game which was worse than the one Jones got sent off for earlier in the season, but that wasn't deemed a red. They just make **** up as the go along

VAR has seemingly made the game more inconsistent.

Released VAR footage from the Arsenal disallowed goal at the weekend. A few thoughts:
1. Why do they not look at the way he initially brings the ball down, because to me it is questionable as to whether that is chest shoulder or arm.
2. They do not mention the ball hitting Cash's arm at all (IMO he is way too close to give a pen for that)
3. They say that they suspect it hits Havertz arm, now I know that they are looking for evidence that it doesn't hit the arm to over turn, but from the video it clearly does hit his arm, why not just say that it does? I know that there is a difference between the ball hitting him and it definitely being handball (or not enough to overturn onfield decision).

I feel that these should all be considered in doing the VAR properly even if they are immediately ruled out. My instinct on this is that the ref probably got it right but the VAR process is a cluster****
