re:VAR {Wes/Tone} the goal over the line watch is perfect, tbf. Instant. Though the

rest of VAR is shît, I feel obliged to admit that the goal line watch thingie works very well.

In fairness, it's either in or it's not, there is no ambiguity

Like Saliba at Brentford - that one just looked in. Shame the keeper got a hand to it because it was a cracking finish

Don't think anyone would argue with goal line technology as there is no judgement involved, it works perfectly.

VAR is a debacle for me. And now that we have Webb in charge instead of that unmentionable cheat, the approach seems to be to use it as rarely as possible.

I watched the two handball incidents not given, one looked a penalty to me (one on the shoulder that appeared to be an upper arm to me) and the other was nailed on (near the goal line, defender clearly handled it with his hand away from his body).

Now they should get rid of the lines. And then bin the entire f*cking thing.

Was it encroachment for their opener?

Lol it ain’t Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs ffs

Yes, 2 players in our half and one is a good 2 yards inside

They shouldn't have been allowed to do that. But FFS, we moved half our team over that side to cover them and whoever was meant to be marking those two should have started moving when they did.

Oh yes, the defending was awful but it doesn't change the fact that the ref (and VAR) should have spotted it.
