Normal contact you say?
Bring Fellaini back.

This is why VAR was always still going to have human error as I’m 100% sure that call is given differently by another ref watching it on VAR.It's still a person sat in a room, making decisions based not only on what he sees but also based on emotion, thoughts, biases etc.
That's the only explanation I can give.
Pretty much. Nothing wrong with the video replay, its the moronic refs who are the problem. Keepers are pretty much a protected species inside the box and even the slightest contact is enough for a FK. Here you got a case of arm in the fecking face which is a FK anywhere on the pitch and often a yellow so how the feck that is not given is beyond meTo be fair, DDG one is not VAR's fault but the referee is being clueless. VAR is there to help the referee and didn't used properly. If we never have VAR in EPL, people would still moan about the wrong decision that the referee made.
The arm was already touching DDG's face before the ball went pass him and that alone basically contact with the keeper to prevent DDG to see clearly where the ball goes, which clearly the reason why DDG missed punch it.
I don't know how even ex referee made statement that the arm contact happened when the ball was gone which is not true.
To me VAR is a good idea but the referee is just ridiculously bad.

Why isn't that at least partly the VAR's fault though? Part of their job is to intervene in incidents like this, as they have done on other occasions.To be fair, DDG one is not VAR's fault but the referee is being clueless.

Really don't know how you can blame a machine when the one who made the final decision is the human not the machine.Why isn't that at least partly the VAR's fault though? Part of their job is to intervene in incidents like this, as they have done on other occasions.
I'm all for defending VAR when they deserve it and pointing out why/when the stupid rules they're operating under in the PL hinder them but even with that, sometimes they deserve to be criticised.
VAR is not a machine. It’s a bloke watching a monitor.Really don't know how you can blame a machine when the one who made the final decision is the human not the machine.
It's not VAR the one make the decision, it's the referee that make the decision. If you are doing listening test and you missed something what you heard, who are you blaming to? The audio? Well it's yourself not the audio. The Everton goal was already considered as a goal without VAR, so without VAR ever happened in PL the wrong decision was made by the referee.
And the referee who watch them & make the decision are to blamed right not the actual video. Why do we blame video replay, are we nuts?VAR is not a machine. It’s a bloke watching a monitor.
You said don’t blame the machine. Nobody is doing that because there’s no machine to blame. What do you think VAR is?And the referee who watch them & make the decision are to blamed right not the actual video. Why do we blame video replay, are we nuts?
Not only are these rulings controversial to say the least, they don't take into account the psychological impact of having a goal ruled out after you've thought you've scored, it's got to be terribly demoralizing, especially for a team like Norwich today who are the underdogs in a desperate situation.Get rid of it, it's fecking shit. I'd much rather a couple of errors if it means legitimate goals don't keep getting ruled offside for non existant offsides. Never in a million years is pukki offside there vs Spurs
VAR isn't the problem. The shit refs here often can't read a screen.Get rid of it, it's fecking shit. I'd much rather a couple of errors if it means legitimate goals don't keep getting ruled offside for non existant offsides. Never in a million years is pukki offside there vs Spurs
I don't think anyone remembers the rules anymore. Absolute shambles.so the commentators are saying the VAR office's reasoning for the offside is that Pukki was coming back from an offside position? wtf does that even mean when its not in relation to when the ball is passed.
Go back a year and look at great goals being given for offsides, blatant handballs ignored, blant onside decisions being given off due to out of position linesman.It’s ruining the game.
Sky worded it wrong. Rules havent changed ffsI don't think anyone remembers the rules anymore. Absolute shambles.
Hope all the 'we desperately need VAR' brigade are happy. You've ruined our game because they won't get rid now.
Go and watch NFL if you want this 100 replays crap. Football needs to be fast and free flowing.

I can understand the frustration but feck me, all of that was many times worse.
Those cnuts are hidden away in a truck with no cameras, no mics.VAR isn't the problem. The shit refs here often can't read a screen.
Yup, looked like that to me as well. Unbelievable.It it just me or does the blue line(spurs player) look behind the red line(Pukki)?
Strictly speaking, it is.Clear and obvious though. When you rule out a great goal because a player's arm hair is offside then it's gone too far
There'll always be a margin of error though, which makes them subjective. At what point do you even measure the ball leaving the passer's foot? Completely subjective.Strictly speaking, it is.
Offsides dont even fall under clear and obvious, it either is or not. That category is used for subjective calls
Been saying this all season. Glad I’m not the only one that thinks thisTheres nothing wrong with VAR as a concept. Theyve just completely fecked the implementation of it. And put opinions of it back another 10 years.
You'd swear they're deliberately sabotaging it for it to be this incompetent.
