OTF

I haven't seen that one as yet but I'm not at all surprised. The FA are fucking hopeless at responding to and taking action against their own shortcomings, which these erroneous decisions must absolutely fall in the remit of. They'll say nothing and do nothing as none of the media darlings have been harmed.

The VAR decision in our game was worse IMO, but I'd be equally annoyed about that decision if I supported West Ham.

Well said. I really want to see him for a full game to get a read on his defensive positioning and contribution.

And if Anderson is to earn a starting spot it would be over Willock and then we'd potentially have quite a balanced midfield three with the spark from both Bruno and Anderson. A legitimate exciting prospect.

Poor VAR decision in the West Ham game also denying a goal for incidental contact after Mendy dived at the feet of Bowen to punch the ball clear.

It's a tough one because it's not patently clear the differences in the instructions and intended positioning for Willock, Longstaff and Joelinton. For me it would still be Longstaff as he wants too much time on the ball where-as Anderson's strength seems to be his close control and sharp interplay. Positionally that means Willock maybhave to sit back a bit with Joelinton best with a free-roaming pass.

5 goals Brentford, a hat-trick from Toney.

Absolutely, looks ready to play a bigger part.

I would ask how we have not scored here but technically we did score, albeit through an own goal. Robbed.

Paraphrased. Craig: "The referee made a mistake when looking at the monitor because no foul was committed against their keeper" Also Craig: "The VAR has to advise the ref to have a look at the foul against their keeper"

Firstly, you're hilarious. Secondly the VAR can also see why Willock has collided with the keeper and therefore determine that he hasn't committed a foul. You yourself believe this to be the case so why would the VAR ever suggest the ref should have a look at it? You're not making any sense.

It's a fascinating argument deciding precisely how we've been fucked over, like it makes any difference. Whether the ref asked for it to be reviewed or whether the VAR suggested that the ref got it wrong and should have another look it doesn't matter. The VAR was in the best position to see that Willock was shoved and therefore had not fouled the keeper of his own volition so should have said nothing/informed the ref that the goal should stand.

Great ball Isak and a good shot from Willock

Pope 🥰

Only if you're amongst the 'big 6' and have had your manager wildly gesticulating down the sidelines.

Only if there is a clear and obvious error, which there wasn't, ergo VAR was obliged to do nothing.

Think they look at all goals or red card incidents regardless of the referee and then are supposed to interject should there be a clean and obvious error, exactly like what we didn't see there.

Good game management from Vieira, trying to take the edge off our players and supporters with some very slow substitutions.

Time to take Longstaff off, can see a second yellow coming.

Whoever is out picking up a right leg for Miggy, might as well grab a left too whilst they're there.

It's sad but I think this is true.

Can they now review the shove on Willock and give us a penalty? Farce

If anyone's fouled it's Willock who is shoved. Absolute horse shit

We'll take that thanks! Nice pressure Willock who has been busy all game
