Wild horses wouldn't have stopped Shearer scoring that goal. I need to see the Slimani one now, who was it against? My alcohol fulled memory of my trip to Brasil appears to have made the goal better than it was now I've just watched it back but it's still a good goal. First goal in this cracker: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/25285249

I've already had the pleasure of being in the stadium to see this guy score a great goal. It was Shearer like. Reminded me a bit of Shearer's first against Spurs when we beat them 7-1.

Think you need to watch it again. Darlow made two fundamental mistakes, the wall was in the wrong place (and arguably didn't have enough men in it if he was setting it up for right and left foot takers) - the wall was only set up for a right footed free kick only. That really is a basic fundamental error by Darlow. The free kick didn't even go over the wall. His positioning was also poor, he had no sight of the shot being taken so he was late to react. His view was blocked by Chelsea players, he needs to either instruct our players to be in there and disrupt the Chelsea players or move slightly and find a line of sight to the ball, even if that is through players legs etc.

Libellous. I started at the bottom unlike him.

Injured isn't he?

I said something you said was nonsense and you called me a daft s****? Think you need to reevaluate that one. Aye, a daft s**** for thinking that I did it deliberately. Like I said, I misunderstood, which is why I said there was no need. f***ing sick of this place, like. Jeez. Chill out.

No need for what?

But VAR will be used where there is doubt with a penalty. How many people disagreed over the penalty that Chelsea got at Arsenal? Quite a few did on here. So that decision would have been reviewed by VAR and it would still be a contentious decision. The referee wont say ‘sorry lads, I cant review that one cos it looks a bit dodgy’. No it won't. Or it shouldn't anyway. Why wouldn’t it? The referee would definitely review it as the Arsenal players would claim a dive and the Chelsea players would be totally the opposite. The referee would go into it looking for issues around whether or not there was contact, when he’d then get sucked into whether or not the contact was sufficient for the player to go down - which is perception rather than clear cut. Why wouldn’t the referee review it? Who or what would stop them? For exactly the reason that I mentioned in the previous post - If there's any contentious grey area whatsoever, then VAR isn't used. It has to be absolutely clear cut that an error has been made. If the referee checks then it should be that they have serious doubts, or it should be because the VAR panel know that an obviously erroneous decision has been made. VAR isn't there for the reasons that you've mentioned, but it seems to be a misconception that everyone including pundits seems to have. No one's got a clue, man. I watched two long interviews with Mike Riley and then Graeme Poll, who both described it at length as being exactly as in my post. Later Greg assured me that the ref couldn't check the monitor as well, despite having just watched a ref do it. I'd be all over it if it was how they described it, but it's not, so they either need to change it or get rid of it. I'm already seething whenever I see that poncy VAR hand gesture. Revisionist nonsense. I assured you the referee cannot instigate the checking of something. He can't. The VAR does that.

Huddersfield booed off ffs.

Notts County scored a goal today which would have been disallowed by VAR but wasn’t because VAR wasn’t available so now Swansea have a replay to play. How is it fair? Not necessarily. The evidence is clearly inconclusive. Whole of the ball has to be over the line, it's not clear that's the case due to the camera angles.

They signed him from Man City in the summer for about £8m. Good move for him, hope he makes it.
-
It's too simple to say he should pass, if he was up against a better 'keeper and the 'keeper wasn't totally out of position then perhaps he should have passed. But he wasn't, 'keeper was miles out of position and so it was actually quite a straightforward finish.

Shola on BBC1 now.
