VAR thread

[Le Chef]

Industrial UK language will prevent it being aired

[BootRoom]

Yeah, you'd hear a lot more than "Mr. Referee" if Premier League 'discussions' were aired.

[S-RED]

He came out on Talksport after MNF and said he wants it, so time to call his bluff.

Tompkins did a piece recently on referee bias (to be generous) and how we get destroyed in every metric, particularly by North West refs, particularly Tierney. Despite the overwhelming evidence, no chance PGMOL, FA or PL would take any action. This is perhaps our best chance for some genuine reform.

Oh i agree call his bluff, but this was the guy in fergies pocket; all the time VAR is reffed by onfield refs & not managed by separate officials we will always be on a loser. Thats not paranoia it fact & purley as a by product of Klopp seeing the ****show the fans see..... Arteta is the next one, he wil start getting dogs abuse from refs for caring next season(& altough i cannot stand him, you cannot knock his passion). Pep will get his free ride, as will others though.

If the refs go in to this season on a mission & maintain it for a period, just watch Man U be in contention with City after Xmas.

Just broadcast communication between ref and VAR. Would be a start at least.

[Liverpool]

Whats annoying is when we see 4-5 angles, first 4 don't look enough to overturna decision, the ref sees the 5th image, slowed down and zoomed in and nothing else.

They should be given all the evidence

Finally. Wonder if we will ever get the same?

The premier league won’t have the balls to do this.

That’s sensational isn’t it. Wow I love seeing that transparency in the game compared to the bias bull**** we get shoved down our throat

[baitman]

That's brilliant. Let's hope we get a better level of transparency and cut out some of this obvious ref bias against us.

[Exiled_red]

That's the way it should have been done since it's inception.

As stated many times the model to copy was the one which Rugby implements.

Football seems to been trying to re-invent the wheel only to end up with the Rugby model.

Out of interest what does the ref say to the player at the very end of the clip. The defender thanks the ref 'merci beaucoup' and the ref seems none to pleased judging by the players reaction to what the ref says to him

[RedReet]

Penalty against Dunk was a shocker. Good warm up for Coote before tomorrow.

[danperkins]

He was awful today Coote but then again he's awful every day.

VAR is making refs reluctant to make decisions. It’s better for them to get overruled for missing something than to be corrected after overreacting having given something erroneously, so they avoid making controversial decisions and leave it to VAR. That’s when the clear and obvious bull**** comes in and fails to award things that should be awarded.

Absolutely. It's made cowards of them, and the end product is worse as a result. They'd rather keep play moving and wait to be corrected, at which point the bar is much higher.
