Var improving?

[millertop]

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

Not sure what your point is? You are sat on the fence too much 😂😂.

I’ve never liked it tbh.

Lol
I’ve never wanted it and I don’t like Liverpool but what an embarrassing joke it was in this game
Cayton im sure will stick up for it

God it’s good to moan

The Arsenal Leeds game Xhaka stamped on a Leeds player went to VAR never even got a yellow- Leeds player did same thing 5 minutes later and got a yellow!

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

[Ronners]

Whatever people think about VAR it most certainly gets more things right than wrong, in fact it gets the things it was mainly brought in for, such as offsides and whether first contact was made either inside or outside the penalty area, regarding the awarding of a penalty, 100% right.
The contentious decisions are when they are looking at things which is about opinion, and even then IMO they get most things correct, although the tackle by Arsenal's Xhaka against Leeds , the shove in the back on Liverpools Jota against spurs, which have been mentioned on here, and even the Man City goalie taking out Newcastles Ryan Fraser, does make me wonder how they come to ,again IMO, wrong decisions.
Before VAR was introduced there were a lot of glaring errors being made by officials, and cheating by players wasn't helping either, and the sooner we can get VAR across all leagues the better it will be for football. UTM

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
