Allow semi-automated VAR to come in for offsides and allow VAR reviews for any card bookings given how most football players in EPL are half a decade younger than the youngest referee and how card bookings will affect the course of the match. It is embarassing for Sky Sports to have so many angles for so many people to take multiple looks at a booking but the PGMOL refuses to do so.
Bear in mind that the referees are considered to be slow pokes compared to players who are actually among the fittest man in the world.
When even Mo gets a yellow card, you know the ref is on a power trip.
Still trying to figure out what Andy did to get his yellow. The ref blew after the first contact, when Andy had eyes only on the ball as opposed to the Spurs player.
I was watching it with my lad, and had a similar thing. As soon as Diaz scored I said that it looked offside, then saw the reply and set off round the room celebrating the goal. He was a yard onside.
Couldnât believe they gave it off. Couldnât believe it was a 10 second process.
And theyâll give us the same excuse they gave us last seasonâŚVAR isnât authorized to intervene with the eye test. If the cameras are down they have to stick with the decision of the field.
They had to as the linesman had waved it offside the blind prat!
Because the linesman had waved it offside they should have checked it correctly but couldnât be bothered or something. So frustrating!
The good news from the weekend is that Man City also lost so we didnât lose any ground and this was clearly a significantly harder game than the one they dropped.
I donât think there is another team in this league that has shown as much talent and mental resilience as Liverpool so far, City included.
Weâve come a hell of a long way in one transfer window.
