I can see that there could be some debate whether its a pen or not. VAR should absolutely not be over turning that, it's not a clear and obvious error in a million years like. 

 

I reckon if Simeone was in the PL I'd absolutely despise him like.

He just never full evolved. I’m convinced he is a neanderthal. Must have somehow survived frozen for years or something.

It’s flawed in similar ways to normal reffing. It’s not corruption, it’s either consistently favouring a home side by reacting to the crowd or following a narrative like ignoring repeated cynical but small fouls, or giving certain clubs the benefit of any doubt.

 

It's the margin of error change that really irks me. There's more refereeing "mistakes" now than there ever was before VAR. When you set the bar for contact or handball so low, more are given at the expense of a more exciting game. And if fine margins make a difference in decisions, teams and players will go trying to create them. Like Gyokeres tonight, or Dembele flicking the ball at whoever's hand last night. And the countless other examples.

 

Maybe I'm getting old by being in the "Get up you clown" camp. It certainly made for a more exciting game.

Good on Stevie G saying Arteta does the theatrics as well.

 

"Yeah but Arteta isn't as successful with it as Simeone"

 

What kind of comeback was that from Keown :lol:

He’s just wildly biased. Always has been. When he started as a pundit he was refreshingly intelligent but it’s almost become a parody now.

His TalkSport appearances are verging on the ridiculous. Might as well be listening to the incel that is Ty or another one of the Arsenal Fans TV gimps.

Think it goes to show how much the Champions League dropouts often dominated the Europa League when you see that one of Braga or Freiburg are going to make the final

Makes a mockery of the standard of European competitions outside the CL that a side fighting relegation, on their third manager of the season, are in the fucking semi-finals.
