I'm sorry but we need an inquiry into VAR today. The VDV non red card and now this. Absolute joken
Its incredible any ref can look at Mendy and rule out. The ball was miles away from him.

Crap decision. West Ham robbed of a perfectly fine goal.

As someone who was initially for VAR, it's quite clear it just doesn't work. Or, more specifically, the officials are utterly incompetent and this just allows them to make even more incomprehensibly bad decisions.

They'll probably score now anyway. We love conceding late.

The technology works fine, it's the people making the decisions who then don't have to explain themselves afterwards is the real issue.

Nail on the head

Make then be accountable and explain themselves.

The audio should be broadcast live.

Then they wonder why players like to play-act, fecking utter morons. If the goalkeeper plays on, it wouldn't even register on the radar. Fecking utter wank.

That might be one of the all time shocking VAR decisions... Wasn't there meant to be a focus on ensuring only a necessary amount of force should be applied before a foul is granted this season?

How can referees be this incompetent? Mind-boggling. And it's not just one, there's a cnut in the VAR room who thought that was a foul too.

I thought the incident with the Boro handball against us last season in the FA cup couldn't be topped, but this one for Chelsea is certainly up there

That referee should never be allowed to work a match at Premier League level again, that's absolutely scandalous. What a twat!

Yeah, as I said, the officials are incompetent. We should replace them all with Ai
