It was still 35 C here yesterday… but next Thursday the high will be 28 C and I could just about cry tears of happiness.
Days without VAR were so much worse, so let's not get silly. Good thing about days like yesterday is that the chance of a better automated system increases in the EPL.
For me biggest Manu problem is that there are far to many players of who you say "if he only was good at X he would be a complte player".

But the flow of the game gets screwed. The 10 minutes it's taken for the refs to check, your opponents have reset and gotten info and from the coach. The team that just scored loss their momentum while the refs dick about.
VAR needs better implementation to become automated like how line tech works when the ball crosses the line the ref get a buzz on the wrist.
The system right now feels like it's still in beta. There's too much on the line for the level of incompetence on display.
World Cup was fine no? Although we did have those extra six mins per half but that wasn't VAR though
World Cup also had it's own issues. Plus the offside was automatic.
So long as the check isn't more than 10 secs max, I can firm car. But waiting until a goal is scored people are celebrating and then to pull it back...
Nah, f dat

the problem is var takes either 10 minutes or 2 seconds and then it gets the decision wrong anyways
the pl has made it the most inefficient waste of time possible, like why arent refs just shown the replay from the start and they can make the decision, instead its the var has to check, then the ref has the check

Who doesn’t love a ref looking at the var screen watching the same replay over and over until he makes up his mind about how the rules are interpreted that day?

Mad respect to Dan Ryckert tbh.
By NiceGuy Go To PostDamn, they stole City's celebrationWell, Allez Allez Allez was already trademarked by Liverpool innit
And that, lads, is the sound of LFC and its client journalists very, very quickly losing the moral high-ground on this.
I mean I kind of get not letting this slide. You cant just change the fundamentals of the sport and be like oopsie. Might as well let pick up the ball, run and summersalt into the goal.
Honestly, that offside shitshow is pretty fucking close to the point where I can understand a decent number of people assuming that it's corruption rather than incompetence.
whether it's incompetence or corruption the folks involved should be canned. there have to be consequences here. instead of harping just on the integrity of the referees they also need to drag their ability as well.
There are too many human elements involved. you got the three officials, then another 3-4 elsewhere in a shipping container doing god knows what. You only need one bloke watching the tapes and automate the rest.
The explanation also doesn't makes sense. Surely comms go something like "check complete, no offside" or check complete, valid goal", etc. Few times there have been instances of micced refs, they talk plainly and long about what's going on, even can ask the main refs questions if needed.
It's plain incompetence and obviously the refs in the booth are either just not doing their jobs professionally, or in the case of having to make a decision we've seen how the first factor for them is "how do we protect the main ref" instead of "what's the right call", so no wonder their priorities are fucked.
Then on top of that, execs getting kckbacks from these fuckers flying midweek to SA and the UAE having a good 'ol jolly time of reffing meaningless leagues. These are not serioud orgs.

such a stupid error tho, either way the people in charge are not qualified to do their (not actually that hard) job
