Carragher working on the pads with Kell Brook.

Very bizarre.

 

[mmj_uk]

Sheff Utd keeper has had a solid game looks decent considering he's only young.

 

[Andybtsn]

Go on Snoddy

 

[The_One]

Fair play west ham 1-1

 

[mmj_uk]

Jinxed him.

 

[Andybtsn]

Looks like it will get disallowed

 

[The_One]

Thats an absolute joke

 

[robfosters]

Just **** var off. **** it off right now.

 

[The_One]

Var is killing the game

 

[mmj_uk]

Right decision for me, if the ball hadn't hit his arm it would have gone to a Sheff Utd player. In those situations it shouldn't matter if it's intentional or not.

he never put his arm out after the ball was headed, his arm was out as he was running you cant run without moving your arms

its become a joke

As Carragher says that's not down to VAR, that's the crazy handball rule. VAR cannot do anything but rule the goal out.

It is var tho because without var it wouldnt of been mentioned

Why wouldn't it have been mentioned? By the letter of the law the goal shouldn't have stood. It's very possible that the ref allowed play to carry on knowing VAR would double check the handball incident.

 

[robfosters]

I was supporter of var, now I want it gone, it’s killing the game. Go back to the old days. Refs decisions. Some wrong, some right, you take the rough with the smooth.

At least you will be able to celebrate a goal.

 

[Purdy]

If the ref ruled out that goal for hand ball (as he would've if seen without VAR), what would you blame then?

 

[robfosters]

It gets more pathetic each time I look at it.

 

[nicktay2605]

That's nothing to do with VAR, that's the handball rule being rubbish. VAR is there to spot clear and obvious errors, under the current handball rules it's done the thing it's intended to imo. They need to change the handball rule, that was headed onto Rice's arm, he knew absolutely nothing about it.

 

[BaZ87]

David Moyes is more deluded than Solksjaer.
