    Var improving?

    After watching spurs v Liverpool I’d say definitely not

    Whoever was on var are either clueless or cheats

    For me it was 100% a red card for Kane but var didn’t want to know
    Other fouls that needed to be looked at but either wasn’t or var officials were looking at different rules
    Amazingly they did send ref over to look at a possible red card for Liverpool which was given and rightly so but you can’t blame Klopp for moaning and getting a yellow for it

    Seriously it was a joke

    Jim Beglin was co-commentator on that game in the US and after that incident he mentioned that the Leeds fans were chanting "You don't know what you're doing" and said "On the evidence of the past 10 minutes you have to acknowledge that they have a good point"

    What about the blatant shove in the back on Jhota and never given a penalty for it? Total disgrace yesterday and yet they want us to buy into it...

    It was Harry Kane though so which Ref is going to send of the darling centre forward of english football? Staright red all day long, the Ref bottled it and so did they upstairs.

    Alan Shearer urges head of Premier League referees Mike Riley to "take responsibility" for the "unacceptable" level of refereeing decisions in recent matches.

    Lol good luck with that

    I've never liked VAR, probably never will

    They've toned it down a bit this season but still seem reluctant to overturn a ref's decision, hiding behind the "clear and obvious mistake" waffle. Kane benefitted from that and stayed on the pitch even though it could have been a leg break tackle.

    If it was clear it wouldn't involve VAR anyway

    Haha. Your making comments about not liking var after watching replays of the incident. Kane's tackle didn't look that dangerous in real time. It was only on the replay that it was clearly a red card. The Jota pen could have been given either way in real time yet on the replay it was a clear foul. Even the Robertson one looked like a yellow in real time.

    Yeh can't watch a game. Watch the replay then moan var is crap.
    The people who are running VAR are the same people who were wearing black on the footy pitch not that long ago.
    VAR as a concept is a fantastic idea. It's the numpty that run it where the problem lies.

    Topsy. We either keep var and except the decision or we go back to no var. Let the ref make the decisions and you can't ever moan again about a ref. Tbh you wouldn't have much to talk about

    Yes this is the point.
    It isn't the technology that's at fault it's the people who make the decisions based on the information it provides.

    Also, when should VAR be consulted or not. A clear and obvious error?
    It's people who decide whether that applies and not the technology

    Even Mr Kettle has a good game now and again but he'll be back to his interpretation of incidents very soon I'm sure
