Officials are having a shocker. Does VAR think it has to be 100 percent overturned to bring him to the screen?

Chelsea are second only to Liverpool in term of refereeing favouritism.

It was supposed to improve refereeing but all VAR has done is highlight how useless our referees are.

Should be at least one penalty here.

The problem is, as Carragher highlighted, there seems to be this determination to ask if there is ‘enough evidence’ to show its a ‘clear and obvious error’. That’s nonsense and over complicating things. If it’s a penalty, it’s a penalty. Whatever the ref has given should be irrelevant.

I think it brings a self righteous attitude where they don’t want to be seen to be being wrong, but it’s complete nonsense

Apparently Walton on BT Sport score justified the decision by saying he "only" held his shirt "for a bit". :lol:

Honestly, you couldn't make it up
