Time added on

There seemed to be some contoversy about the added time in our game against Arsenal, and there certainly was in the Chelsea v City game, Pochettino was convinced that Taylor had ended the game early, and he was right to be annoyed. There were 8 added minutes, Taylor blew for time after 10 added minutes, but with the penalty dispute, VAR checks, goal celebrations, free kick on the edge of the box and substitutions, the ball was actually in play for just 2 minutes, 30 seconds of that extra 10 minutes. If they're going to add time on but not play it, what's the point ? This farce could become the next big problem for the game, on top of the VAR pantomime.

Again they could take a lead from Rugby and stop the clock when certain incidents occur.

The whole thing is a mystery to me Var , penalties hand ball. Time added on all introduced to fix something that want broken.

Look at the whole farce now it’s a complete joke.

And in the meantime, the Championship rolls along perfectly well without VAR, better officiating, less controversy, and no one in that league, players, managers or fans are calling for VAR to be introduced, they are happier without it, they want nothing to do with it. When is the penny going to drop ?

I regularly watch Championship games on SKY and the EFL and PGMOL cretins get nowhere near to spoiling the enjoyment mon ami, and like you say the games roll on largely without incident caused by daft officiating and another five different cretins playing FIFA on PlayStation games at Stockley Park.

Enjoy it while you can because they VAR Pandemic will spread to the lower reaches in time. Really sad prospect.
