Mike RileyThe use of VAR has been the worst in England so far. Not sure why they insist on doing it their way.
So only about the 15th VAR decision against Everton this season then
How did it go against Everton? He was sent off (incorrectly it seems) during the match. If anything the VAR decision went Everton's way on this one. Retrospective action doesn't affect Everton at all.
Makes out Son is the victim when he’s the one that caused the injury
VAR was the one who made it a red was it not?Son's red card rescinded for being an error after the VAR deemed it not a clear and obvious error
Nobody is making out Son is the victim in this unfortunate incident. He committed a typical foul, it was just unlucky that Gomes broke his ankle. Quite coincidentally our Gomez had his ankle broken by Ben Mee last season and didn't even receive a free kick for it.
VAR certainly was in favour for Everton on this incident whatever way you look at it.
Don't think so, it was too quick for VAR to get involved. It was going to be yellow then Atkinson saw the injury and upgraded it to red.VAR was the one who made it a red was it not?
Ah.Don't think so, it was too quick for VAR to get involved. It was going to be yellow then Atkinson saw the injury and upgraded it to red.
I wonder how many games where VAR is in action a red has been overturned after the game. I'm guessing it wouldn't be many
I like this.
Referees to be urged to use monitors
Premier League referees are to be encouraged to make more use of pitchside VAR monitors, referees' chief Mike Riley is expected to tell clubs later this week.www.bbc.com
Denied united's goal for Origi diving and grabbing the wrong leg? Please.I like this. I reckon Atkinson wouldn't have disallowed the 3rd goal for Arsenal vs Palace and United's goal for the foul on Origi if he viewed the replays. Once the ball is in the net I really don't get why you wouldn't look at the replay. Play is stopped anyway, take a look and make a call.
It's the complete opposite in the A League where refs often run over to look at replays and end up doing nothing.

I assume Liverpool would have one taken away and one given? Something like that?Here is what the table would look like if VAR wasn't involved to (rightly or wrongly) change decisions.
I can't remember all the calls but recently Chelsea scored an offside goal against us that got ruled out. If VAR wasn't there then we'd have drawn that game and would be 2 points less.I assume Liverpool would have one taken away and one given? Something like that?

I'm struggling to remember a situation where we scored and it got ruled out by VAR. There must have been one somewhere for it to even out. The Firmino goal vs Villa was ruled out by the linesman first so VAR having the same decision shouldn't matter. Also if it did count we'd have won 3-1 so that doesn't cost anyone points.
The Origi non-foul call vs Man United was a ref call that was backed by VAR so that doesn't matter either.
Wasn't there a Mane diving penalty that was given by VAR or was that backed by VAR?I can't remember all the calls but recently Chelsea scored an offside goal against us that got ruled out. If VAR wasn't there then we'd have drawn that game and would be 2 points less.
