VAR needs to be removed for the sake of the game. I'll be happy going with the ref's decisions. Enough is enough. If Sane was offside, then VVD was certainly not offside, and consequently we were robbed of a penalty. No comment on Gomez. Everyone else will happily fill in the dots.

VAR is not the problem. It's the way it is being used. Absolutely disgusted today 2 shocking decisions and daylight robbery.

17 Oct 2020 14:40:59
The 2 decisions were an absolute joke. First time I've been truly outraged by VAR.

17 Oct 2020 14:46:37
It was a cracking game of football ruined by that nonsense.
Get rid of it please.

17 Oct 2020 14:47:41
Absolute joke.

It was poor to say the least, Pickford should have been sent off and if Mane is offside for the third goal, then the game has gone.

17 Oct 2020 14:53:30
Can live with the offsides its been silly for seasons. But that Pickford challenge to go completely missed is just unacceptable. Absolutely madness VAR only job is to check decisions yet according to ESPN they didn't even check it because they where checking the offside. thought BT and Peter Walton covered well tbf.

2 possible career Ending tackles. First thing var (the refs) is there for the safety of players. It failed massively. If that challenge on VVD was from an outfield player not in the pen box he’s a gonner. The offside is just a Beyond a joke!

Yes VAR is are enemy today, but are other enemy is our own defense, might be time for neco Williams to step in for trent he looks like he needs a rest . Sounds insane but give nat Phillips a chance he is better in the air than gomez and a more aggressive defender, gomez has baggage at the minute .

don't get it at all? NFL has replay and there needs to be irrefutable evidence to overturn a call. I wish VAR was the same.

17 Oct 2020 15:02:52
the technology is fine, it's just really confusing how it's implemented, how it's communicated, how they come to decisions, how the lines are drawn, who makes decisions.

17 Oct 2020 15:04:06
OP, VAR is not my problem. It is the consistency that is my problem. On the VVD tackle, I don't know how anyone can say that was not a red card. I have seen games where players are penalized for fouls after a play is blown dead by the ref and SENT OFF. Also and that was not a tackle. It was assault, end of. There is NO rule that says a player can be assaulted by another player just cos the play is blown dead. Where was the VAR for that?

Then on the Everton first goal, people are yet to mention that Keane grabbed Fab's shirt hence, preventing him from jumping and Fab can't jump and Keane gets a free header. It was clear on replays YET not a peep. Where was VAR for that?

But NOW that Everton are about to lose, they pull out the VAR ASAP to find some offside that NOBODY else can see. THAT IS MY PROBLEM.

Ed001 has said for months the lines are subjective, I don't get why there needed its not like goaline tech where its black and white.
Get them removed, use the naked eye and let the game be. It will be so much better for it.

17 Oct 2020 15:48:51
the lines are there to make it objective. Using naked eye is a terrible idea.

What they should do, imo, is change the wording so that the feet are the only factors for the offside line. that would be far clearer than drawing a line part way up the arm.

17 Oct 2020 15:07:31
Ed025 well you got the draw you were hoping for. As a blue what do you make of the VAR decisions and Pickford's challenge on Virgil?

{Ed025's Note - i think pickford should be in a police cell now jeff, never been a fan of VAR mate even though it seems we were the benificiaries today mate..

17 Oct 2020 16:16:15
Nice one, Ed25. I am just happy that VVD's season was not ended by that clown of a GK. He is also known to be a piece of work off the pitch, as well. Now we see why.

{Ed025's Note - hes a knobhead on and off the pitch RM, you wont find me defending him under any circumstances mate..

17 Oct 2020 16:47:18
var is good just the bent corrupt/ incompetent persons using it would be interesting to see the betting on 2-2.
