It is nice seeing that prick of a keeper mess up though. Good finish.

I said it at the time, but has a world cup final ever had two keepers as bad as Lloris and Martinez in it as the last one?

Pissed about for 5 minutes trying to disallow Simms’ goal at Molineux then pissed about drawing lines to keep Man Utd in the cup.

It’s meant to be for ‘clear and obvious’ errors. If it can’t be settled in 30 seconds the on field decision should stand.

Welcome to officiating in the Premier League mate, just looking for ways to keep the Sky darlings winning games.

It`s the exact same with time added on too, the likes of Arsenal, City, Liverpool, Chelsea, very rarely get 3/4 mins added on in their games.

You can have a game where no one has been injured, no ones been sent off, there`s been very little from VAR stoppages, only a couple of subs and they`ll add anywhere from 6 - 10 mins on :ROFLMAO:

With the amount of players out for various reasons, it was very unexpected too.

Moyes does his best work as a manager, when he has his back to the wall, as he`s very good tactically when cautious football is required, not so good when expansive football is required.

Aside from that Rogers effort late on, Villa didn't really threaten. As ever, my FPL team suffers from always making the wrong choice between Pickford and the Sunderland keeper.

Just catching up with the games played yesterday, how the hell was that a pen for Liverpool, luckily he squandered it.

Giving soft pens like that and we have blatant pens denied it's all a con in my eyes.

Interesting is a pen if you dive at the feet of a player and make minimal contact.

Maybe we don't get them because there's a lot of contact so they don't count?

Only flicked on the Brighton v Bournemouth game but do any of us have any hope when you have commentators saying “they probably do have cramp to be fair” and “Bournemouth just trying to get a breather where they can”. It’s timewasting and feigning injury you fucking cockwombles.

They've been trying to pretend it's a thriller for most of the game. I have a soft spot for Brighton, but let's be honest nobody outside of the supporters of these clubs is that interested.

There's a low stake conspiracy that VAR will be eventually used to incorporate ads into live football matches.
It actually wouldn't surprise me either
Not sure many brands would sign up to be the Official Partner of VAR though

Didn't realise the west ham fans sit that close to the away bench. Madness they are in touching distance of the opposition players

Need binoculars to see the game but breathing down the neck of the benches!

Mad, how does VAR conclude that it was a foul on the GK.., the defender with a two handed push in the back to force the West Ham player into the GK?
If that is what it was for then mad, the two comms folk also failed to even mention it.
