What a joke or a league. Defended really well and then get that nonsense. Crap penalty as well should have saved it

Rubbish league, full of rubbish football and rubbish refs.

I wouldn't go as far as corruption, but it's clear as day that the definition of 'clear and obvious' is highly subjective.

Explain to me how Johnson gets barely touched and it's a yellow for simulation.

One of our players barely touches them and it's a penalty.

Absolute joke.

VAR was supposed to stop the howlers, it's just another way for a second person to influence the match if the referee on the pitch doesn't give the 'right' decision.

I hate this narrative, of course it’s not corrupt.

It’s a soft penalty, but it’s a penalty, Enciso’s stupidity is the blame, not the officials.

I haven't seen today's incident but was it a clearer foul than the one on Chaplin against Leicester?

VAR seems to have added nothing positive to the game.

Not really.

It's "clear and obvious" if it's in favour of the 'bigger' team. Simple as that.

It's also the same foul that Enciso screams for every 5 minutes while clutching his ankle in fake outrage.

It's awful but the irony that Enciso gave it away is unavoidable.

To say that the penalty was the softest I have ever seen and chaplins was a blatant pen may give you an idea

It cannot add anything positive to a game because it is run by humans that are biased, swayed or whatever just as referees have been for years and is open to interpretation which means that one set of VAR officials view an incident totally different to another set. Until you remove humans from decisions and insert certain criteria into a computer that will come out with the same decision every time then these controversial decisions will continue meaning that VAR is a complete waste of time and money.

Well, quite. I've pointed out several times on here that 'clear and obvious' is just as subjective as an original opinion. You're just moving the grey area up the scale!

Agree with your first sentence, of course it's not corruption.

Couldn't disagree more with your second point though, if that's a penalty then every game will finish 9-9 and last about 400 minutes with constant VAR checks. It's a rubbish, unnecessary decision that isn't what VAR is meant to be for and has further ruined a game that had already been unduly influenced by the officials.

I can't wait for this season to be over.

Easy really. Johnson didn’t get touched, but the Newcastle player did.

Explain to me why Enciso felt the need to put his arm out to give the ref the decision to make? Keep his arms by his side, that doesn’t happen.

That’ll be because you don’t agree with the masses on here.

The tears and moaning about refs and var this year has been pathetic. We should be focusing more on the consistent poor choice made in match by our players.

Which means it takes longer and you can't know whether the on-field decision will stand until it is all done.

I was all for VAR until I have seen how it works. I am also sure that it could be used effectively but the rulemakers and officials between them in football really don't help themselves.
