What a goal from Lazaro...

Huh? I think you might be in the wrong thread
Liverpool taking late winners to a new level?
Because both you and City failing to win = good times.
We still have a chance at the league.
What, why are you looking at me funny?
Quickly, slap him and run.
Tbf no one looks like running away with it.
They won't go for Sancho.
I'm sure there's a great deal of research that goes into the psychology of this stuff. You wouldn't think it could work but I suspect it had, at some point, some kind of impact because everyone started doing it. I wouldn't be at all surprised though if every player appealing like a child for every ball has made referees largely immune to the effect (key word still being largely).
For sure, I think its to influence later decisions. You aren't changing the original decision but putting doubt in there to make a more favorable one more likely.
What a start 
They're taking the goal
Shouldn't they be checking whether Leno was actually unsighted? It's quite obvious that he was offside but Leno reacts immediately to the shot (as much as he could given the power of it) and wasn't impeded by Barkley's presence.
Damn. Offside.
Bullshit call. Leno had a clear view
Yup, immediately reacted to the shot. Hardly as if his reaction was impeded by Barkley. Did he even appeal for it?
He wasn't blocking his view ? Terrible decision.
If Leno was De Gea, we'd definitely be saying that's offside.
Well I would be. Definitely obscuring the view
Well I would be. Definitely obscuring the view
VARsenal.
Absolutely hate VAR. it’s a shame it’s hear to stay.
Villa really unlucky with that. I would have no problem if the goal was given.
Bloody hell, what a killer VAR is.
Especially so when you have a Grealish assist
Especially so when you have a Grealish assist
Took almost 5 minutes to check too. What a joke.
Bullshit décision. Not impeded. He was tracking the ball all the way. Nowhere near the previous decisions that were chalked off for the same reason. The ball was not heading at the player.
Wonder if Arteta is going to cry about the VAR decision that went for him
All games today have been really boring.
Take that off VAR!
1-0 Villa.
1-0 Villa.
Get in Trezeguet you beauty. Loves scoring against them.
Wheres your VAR now
Arsenal playing like United there. Poorly.
That was a lovely goal
Well worked goal by Villa. Cute pass by Ross Barkley.
Arsenal look very shaky in the face of Grealish and their good runners. We made a real mess of our game against this lot.
Genuine question: Why in the name of VAR is the pitchside monitor on a massive robotic arm?!
That's apalling defending, get in there Villa!
That was own goal not Trezeguet. Never mind then.
Is Keane in the studio with Cahill? He should be..
Exactly so you did need to win slightly more than they did
I like that there are a good 5 or 6 teams up there, hopefully it can continue. But I feel it would be more of a case of pool or city underperforming for that to continue
