Another howler by the supposed best keeper in the world

VAR does it again. Causes so much angst. Cmon Villa

2563

Never rated him at all.

Like he’s a decent goalie in a side that let very little get close to him. But you just can’t find examples unlike say Alisson where you think he’s saved us or like the save against Naples it’s a “what if” moment.

Well it was a pen…

Not saying it wasn’t.

Point being any subjectivity causes a shitfight whether video or whistle. Stick to the whistle for subjectivity and use vid for black or white - goal line, offside line.

Pep carry’s on like a lunatic as a result.

Oh I do think it should be left to offside offences and nothing else. Maybe correcting Goal line Tech.

He does that regardless of VAR to be fair.

It isn’t about subjectivity though. VAR almost entirely stays out of those. This is about picking something out that ref did not see. If the ref had explained to his linos that he saw contact but didn’t think it was enough for a foul then that would be subjective and so VAR would not have done anything.

To me, this is exactly the sort of situation most had in their head when calling for VAR - something that is difficult to see in real time but has a real impact to the fouled player.

So, is Niko O Reily any good, or is he going to disappear next year once they can go back into the market?
