Poll: Greenlizard0 PL & Championship Football Thread ** spoilers ** [11th - 13th July 2020]

[Robbo]

Romeu should be off there, but no further action from VAR of course.

 

[omnomnom]

We were the same in the last game though. Need a kick in the backside to get going.

Seems Southampton's plan has been to take Mason out of the game.

As in end his season? Thats a disgusting challenge

 

[Martynt74]

How on earth has he stayed on the pitch? Thats a red card.

Yeah it’s another big question mark for VAR there.

Awful challenge.

 

[fez]

Great decision from the ref and VAR there...

For sure. I said Bruno last week should have walked and i dont think he meant it. That was dirty. Awful by Romeu

I actually posted that before that challenge but could see it coming.

I know you did lol. Horrible little rat that fella.

VAR has basically become a lucky dip. You see the Palace goal ruled out yesterday that, at best, was 50-50 and then you get clearly wrong decisions and VAR sits on its hands.

Nothing about what Bruno did last week was dangerous or intentional though... Every time a players foot leaves the ground it could come down on a players ankle. Doesn't mean its dangerous.

I'm generally for VAR (or something like it) but as it stands it's just implemented all wrong. It needs to go and come back when things are sorted out.

but If you listen to @BaZ87 VAR favours us lol

It is early days. You would hope it will get ironed out in the next few seasons.

 

[Shamikebab]

I think it needs to stay, but the people doing it need to be fired and the rules changed.

I disagree. I thought it was dangerous. Connect that high and its automatically dangerous but he didnt mean it. That doesnt make it red though.

Neville summed that challenge up for me. He went to "do him" and he did. Brunos is debatable as youve just proved that was just vile and he needs banning.

 

[omnomnom]

I think it needs to stay, but the people doing it need to be fired and the rules changed.

Which rules are you changing though? Thats a red card by the rules...well laws of the game so what can be changed to get Romeu sent off?

VAR for subjective decisions was always going to be a mess. You were not only going to end up with inconsistent decisions but there was always going to be decisions like today and the Fernandes pen vs Villa that were so clearly wrong but not get overturned leaving supporters bemused as to what's going on.

VAR's not going anywhere, we can just only hope that, like they did with cricket, this clear and obvious thing disappears and they just let the VAR make the correct decisiosn. Using technology and still giving the incorrect decision is just stupid.

but If you listen to @BaZ87 VAR favours us lol

They have to give 1 decision against you per season or else you'll have nothing to cry about stiggy.

 

[adam cool dude]

Lol Le Tissier biased opinion.

 

[Kenai]

Romeu was just letting him know he's there. He's like a modern day Roy Keane. Just a little love tap.

 

[omnomnom]

Lol Le Tissier biased opinion.

Yep. Hes literally left his ankle in to hurt Greenwood. Fair play to Greenwood for not kicking off though.
