V.a.r.
I’m confused.
Doesn’t the new directive call for linesmen not to flag a close offside if a player is put through and let VAR sort it out if he scores? If Martial -who looked to me like he was being played on by the far defender- goes on to score and it turns out he was off, then fine; but how can you know if you don’t let it play out? Wasn’t this thing supposed to clear up confusion? |

There was also the corner that never was, I don't think VAR is meant to be used for those kind of situations, but the T.V broadcast had clearly shown that it was a corner before the goal kick had been taken, so the VAR team must've have known that it should have been a corner before the ball was back in play. |

You’d think, at the very least, the useless @#%&!s should know what the procedure is though. They should have done a soft roll out just for offside, then when refs and players got used to that expand it. As funny as it was at the weekend -because it happened to City- VAR coupled with the rule change on handball is just making this transition a £#%&!ing joke.

They shouldn't be reviewing every goal. If a referee is unsure as to whether an offence has been commited, it should then go to VAR. All of this waiting to see if a goal can stand is ruining the game. It's been a farce (with the exception of seeing City crash out of Europe last year).

It really is going to ruin the game, every goal reviewed for any infringement. Strikers will need to develop to no longer play on the shoulder of the last defender because if pube is offside it wont count. |

The Neves goal was reviewed for the play near the corner flag. He was level when the ball was played but it was close. The quality of the goal is irrelevant imo |

If it's a clear offside, then fair enough, a quick check is all that should be needed, but when they're trying to split @#%&! hairs to disallow goals then it just gets stupid. |

There was a player offside, was it a tap in or overhead kick? Tap in. Disallowed then. |

It's a joke. In the stadium, celebrate a worldy goal then wait for some cretinous little egghead sat in a porta-cabin on the motorway get his slide rule out to see as many permutations as possible as to why he can disallow it. Yeah, that's just wonderful to watch. Even in cricket they have umpire's call. So balls hitting the stumps can either be out or not out depending on the judgment of the official. Football has managed to be more hardline that cricket FFS. Worse still, it doesn't even work properly. In their effort for perfection when ruling goals out, what happens if Wolves break and score a goal when Man Utd should clearly have had a corner that wasn't awarded? That is going to happen this season. If Big Sam was still alive he'd be teaching his players to spot any handball or infraction in any passage of play and then just all freeze on the spot and let a goal play out, sure in the knowledge VAR will have to disallow it. Game. Gone. Get rid. |

I'm not against VAR checking some of the obvious stuff, but for me, stopping the game for several minutes to see if they have to disallow a goal for a big toe being slightly offside is too much. |
