In theory yes. But again this is the other fundamental flaw with VAR, because football is so fluid. A foul or offside or foul throw etc that happened minutes ago can ultimately lead to a goal - but they won't pull it back. So you're only intervening based on arbitrary periods of time and phases.

 

 

 

 

:thup:

 

This is why I edited and backed out of it really, I'm probably never going to get my head around the way VAR  is changing things.

Why the fuck does the lino even need to exist? What is the flags purpose? If VAR is just going to check this shit, kill the lino off. He is redundant. Save on his wages and get another ivory backscratcher.

Seems a very fair point :lol:

:lol: You know people will give a fuck. That's why we have fucking VAR. If someone is played through and is possibly going to score, if the flag is then raised and they stop, only to then have VAR say it was wrong. Theyve been denied that goal scoring opportunity. Or the player plays on, the defenders stop and raise thir hands. The players scores then the defending team kick off because they stopped because it was given offside. But then VAR over rules it.. Happened a couple of times. Both situations are awful. So is the late flag but it's a symptom of VAR.

There is a difference between someone being clear for a shot on goal (Shelvey vs. Sheffield and Iheanacho vs. Everton last season) and just being offside and continuing play for an indeterminate amount of time, though. We can definitely waste less time and not wait 30 seconds to call when a goal is not immediately resulting.

 

Edit: I love Mbappe's style of running. So little wasted motion. It doesn't look like he is working hard at all and the boy is just flying past everyone.
