Straight leg above the ankle should be an automatic red, but they just seem to make up what is a red and what isn’t on a game by game basis.
VAR and Refs | General Discussion

- Start date
City are getting favourable decisions on a very consistent basis now. This is ridiculous
Another City penalty for nothing...
Carragher is spot on about Haaland fouling first. City have the refs in their corner.
Looked like Haaland totally pulled Cucarella back to gain the advantage there
Shameful stuff.
Refs being like "Pick me! Pick me!" for those lucrative UAE reffing gigs.
Well well well
Haaland fouls Cucurella first. It's almost as if EPL officials are receiving dual salaries from the owners of Man City to referee a pub league.
Exactly this
Moonlight and given penalties to state owned clubs, league is a joke
That is a disgrace.
Nothing to see here, as we are told constantly.
Abhorrent.
VAR is ruining every other game
Never á pen
PGMOL to apologise before half time.
Every game I watch these days, I seem to ask myself why I even bother anymore.
UAE have corrupted PMGOL officials. Huge conflicts of interest now. Illicit financial flows aplenty. Overhaul needed.
Recockulous. What a sham.
Same ref demoted last weekend, gave a terrible terrible decision in that game and then gets given the biggest game of the weekend.
Can you imagine how good it must feel to leave England for a few days all expenses covered, first class flights, hotels and restaurants
Who can blame them? I'd give City another pen in the second half just to be sure.
There comes a point where it is no longer incompetence but corruption that is causing these decisions. That time was passed weeks back.
Good on Carragher to call it out.
Good on Carragher to call it out.
I think so.
The only consistency is the decisions that always go for City.
The sooner these cheats are thrown out, the sooner we can have a level playing field

I’m tired of games being decided by refereeing decision.
When’s the last time we enjoyed a great confrontation between two teams that wasn’t tainted in one way or another by a controversial call from the refs?

Likely a double salary for "consultancy work" or "public speaking" like we know Mancini, Yaya Toure, Kompany, Robinho, Aguero all received.Can you imagine how good it must feel to leave England for a few days all expenses covered, first class flights, hotels and restaurants

Absolute shocker. They get everything.
It is getting a bit obvious now which team is benefiting from VAR
He's a terrible ref. But, in fairness the pen he gave last week was probably the right call. Player was just about to shoot and got pulled back and put the ball a mile wide.
Today though, that's just trying to get his name on a plane ticket.
The difference in danger levels between this and Rashford’s one is hilarious.
That’s just never a pen is it. That happens week in week out and it never seems to be a pen for any team unless city. Anthony Taylor as per. The most useless ref in the country bar none.
VAR should have been scrapped the moment it was revealed decisions are taken based on how much stick the referee will be given.
Embarrassing at this point
What's happening to these 115 charges FFS? About time they get punished
City getting another decision in their favour. What a surprise.
City constantly get these decisions, nobody else does. Wonder why that is.
Dvarly aint it
They’ve tried their best on both Chelsea goals to overrule too. No idea what they were checking for the first
