Two poor sides on display here, the standard is garbage.

Quite amazing how much Spurs have dropped off since last season.

Really? It looked tamer than the Watford one yesterday and that was and enough. Son just made a meal of it
He pretty much sat on his shin... In the modern game it would have been far less soft than most imo.
FWIW I'm enjoying seeing Spurs be awful, I just can't get my head around VAR

Vision from Iwobi
Soldato
Great pass leading to the Spurs goal...pity it was from an Everton player!
Caporegime
VAR getting it wrong again imo.
It’s not about being deliberate, his arm is above his head. Can’t see why it wasn’t given.
Caporegime
VAR once again.
Soldato
I've given up on VAR.
It seems to be short for VARiable.

I get its above his head, it just looks like that's the way Ali jumped at the time he certainly wasn't looking to handball it hell he wasn't even looking at the ball.
Either way took VAR far too long, another annoying thing I find with var.
Caporegime
Oh no that’s horrific 
Soldato
This looks very serious. Son's in tears.
Don
That’s awful. Poor guy
That's shocking. His arm is above his head, it's handball. I'll have to find the video from the start of the season when one of the ref's explained how VAR will be used because I'm sure in it he says that VAR will award handballs if the player's arm is above his head. It's not been a good weekend for VAR with the controversy around Firmino's offside with the recalibrating of the offside lines after initially showing him to be onside.
What counts as deliberate changed years ago. You no longer need to move your arm to the ball. If your arm is in a position not seen as natural and the ball hits it, it's handball.
