That's not how it works... you don't just ignore everything that happens on the pitch just because the referee blew an imaginery whistle. There are rules that the referee can use that allows him to punish players before the play is restarted which should have happened in this case. Otherwise players could foul with attempt to injure opponents when they are offside knowing they'd get away with it.

Dangerous play can still be punished
Some people are still clearly having issues grasping what the point of a forum is.This is football forum - online version of sports pub, not united board roompeople will have spectrum of opinion about everything. Have fun with it.
They should really put a a short time limit on the decision made by VAR. If they cannot see he is offside in that time, then it is inconclusive and should be allowed.
Don't think you can forget to check something as serious as the Pickford challenge. They also forgot to check Richarlison being pulled back just before he headed against the post and Robertson kicking Allan. Either something has changed or VAR had a mare today.
Because they don't want him to injure our players.
I prefers Lewindowski miss the game than him to be honest.
But my point is that Robertson has great cover and Mane who actually stays wide. If Trent doesnt get forward then they have no width simply because Salah is forever running inside. Theres more pressure on Trent going forward.
Plus Robertson has always been better imo.
I mean they didnt say they forgot to check it, they ignored it completely and simply said "we checked the offside and didnt check Pickford". Why? Who the feck knows, Lee Dixon was confused too.
Happy to see Pulisic back!
VAR have a mare pretty much every week.
Draw is a fair result to be honest. Good game with both sides having great chances. Pickford a lucky boy again and Richarlison stupid for the sending off.
Fixed it for you seb.
How do you guys put up with Pickford. Granted I don't see everton play every weel but whenever I have seen him he makes a blunder.
No goals Bobby back to his sparking white teeth best

If the final whistle is no longer the sign of things being void, surely offside isn't?
dont care what takes place here, but I am just not worried about a team with a back 4 made of Chilwell - Zouma-Christensen- Azpi...I am just not worried
Chelsea ahead. Werner.
Wow
He's got it very well made. All he needs to do to keep his spot is to get into a semi-decent position and then just offload it for Mane or Salah.
If they score, you get the assist and look amazing.
If they don't score, you still gave them the ball, and still look good.
If the pass doesn't come off, at least you're trying.
Nice guy Firmino. Apparently he does so many things that we don't see. In an alternate dimension, he's banging them in, we're just not evolved enough to see it.
Thank god Liverpool didn't sign Werner
All his own doing incredible goal.
The old Neil Warnock 'it might be a bellend in the 95th minute'
Lovely solo goal that.
again have to say, there's very little wrong with VAR - but a hell of a lot with the idiots looking at it. If you are bad ref on the pitch, you are going to be bad in a truck parked somewhere down the road!Fixed it for you seb.
my bet is he now goes on a scoring run (same will happen with Havertz)
Unfortunately they play us next Saturday.
Good to see pulisic back. Hes started well
Havertz looks so at ease out there too.
Werner again. 2-0.
Holy shit
Why?
He's an ok striker, nothing more.
Get him into a position, where he runs at or behind the last line with full speed and he looks very good. Take that away and he does nothing all game long.
Southhampton's defending against him is atrocious.
I'm much more worried about Havertz, he's clearly the superior talent.
I should've paid the £15!
Great second goal from Werner.
Southampton
He is starting to look a player recently. Seems to be acclimatising to the league
Werner looks like a very good player. Seems like a good fit for Chelsea.
Has a CL and PL winners medal from last 2 years and is loved by possibly the best manager in the world. I’d say he is doing OK.
Southampton's backline is unfit for this level. Shame, they're actually decent going forward.
Werner is absolutely class. Amazing composure for that second goal.
