The problem with var is it’s only a problem if it’s going against your team. I think the problem is more to do with the glaring mistakes that are made every week I saw man city have a goal stand where the keeper was distracted by a player in an offside position, the keeper was anticipating him getting a touch/shot and the forward knowing he was offside left the ball and it went in, this all happened in a split second and then didn't give the keeper enough time to react, the VAR panel clearly dont have a clue what its like to be in goal or that would have been instantly ruled out, it was quite a turning point in the game too my idea would be to have say 5 var judges, sitting in separate rooms, they only get shown incidents and DONT get to see the refs decision, they make their own judgment and if the majority goes against the refs actual decision then the incident gets overturned, there could also be a system where if one of the judges keeps swaying one way when the others dont then they get removed, its not rocket science, I could probably set it up myself

They were level,were the lines straight?? That wasn't clear and obvious,it was inconclusive, it's useless, as proved by that man city goal, whoever was in the VAR box for that one needs there eyes testing at Specsavers🤦🤦

VAR is the least of their worries, they'll have a prison XI soon.
Shocking handling again.

Their country is practically acting like a 19th century entity in terms of racism scandals and women's rights.

I was just stating how the United chairman should have acted and used our chairman as the perfect example , i carefully avoided using the name Cotterill As I knew you'd go off like a Bottle of Pop, you did anyway , 🍾

they cant award the penalty now, not now, it would beat the record for the longest time between an incident taking place and VAR decision being made
(currently held by Liverpool v Shrewsbury when Sean Whalleys goal was ruled out after VAR went back 20 minutes to find something that vaguely resembled an offside from certain angles if you squinted with red tinted spectacles on )

I think Anthony will go down as one of the Premier Leagues worst ever imports.
Nearly £100m, doesn't score, doesn't assist, doesn't track back, is petulant, all round bad egg.

They're saying Ten-Haag has spent over £400m, they look worse than before. What irks me is United fans whinging about their owners in the same bracket as Mike Ashley, when the Glazers have spent an absolute fortune on players.

Although I am not a fan, if you had asked me in the past to reel off the names of the Utd players I am sure I could come up with at least 8 or 9 regular starters. As of now, I would genuinely struggle to name 5 and that is pushing it. New managers like to bring their own players in ( or in Town’s case someone else does it for them), but after spending £411m this guy seems to have made the team worse than before.

further down the line , we all know United will sell out to the biggest crooks with enough money , they might start winning, might even build the best ground in the world before the current one falls down and then we can have some bitter threads about them buying the league again 😝
They need to get their skates on though as at the current rate of premier wins Liverpool are due to overtake them in the year 2439 🥳

I would struggle to do that for all premier clubs , most times England play there is a player I have to look up , all down to money and the size of the squads , the gap widens each day
