Essential The Official Football (Soccer) Thread - Cancel the open top bus, Klopp farewell tour ends in shambles

LOL

Dems the rules, the ball hit his arm

I know you're right, but holy shyt that feels like a ripoff.

This is gonna be such a brutal/hilarious year for VAR. fukkery abounds.

 

[African_brehda]

City were almost nonchalant about this VAR call. After that Spurs 2nd leg, I doubt VAR can hurt them again

Pep and Aguero were prolly gonna smash tonight

 

[dappadonna]

I’ve been waiting all Summer to use this...

:bottlers:

:shatta:

 

[Montez]

They need a year to assess VAR, the fukkery this season will be crazy.

that’s too much letter of the law.

 

[ThrobbingHood]

I don’t know which wait is more intense:

VAR or Maury DNA test results.

 

[THEREALBRAND]

Me too.

All this "spirit of the game" shyt is good to say until your team benefits from it.

I'm prepared as an Arsenal fan to be screwed over by VAR at least once knowing that at least once I'm gonna benefit from it

:ehbay:

Takes too much away from the game. Eventually people are going to stop getting emotionally invested in goals, because they might get overturned because of VAR.

I just don’t think it’s a good thing for the sport overall.

I'm following the updates on my mobile app and reading your comments here brehs, shyt legit has me :dahell12:

Edit: more VAR fukkery?

Nothing worse than monitoring your bets on phone. Getting ready to cash out till they hit you with that "correct score" notification

Either way someone got fukked.

VAR is a good tool, but the implementation is terrible. It shouldn't be used to reverse marginal decisions, or incidental ones. The guy wasn't even looking at the ball when it brushed his arm. By the letter of the law, sure it's a handball, but the rule itself is poor. Players need to just start aiming at their opponents arms as soon as they get into the box based off this.

You can avoid messing with ratchet hoes, you can't keep your heart away from your football club

Make sure the final whistle has been blown next time bruh

 

[nyknick]

VAR is doing it's job but I hate it because you can't celebrate goals in the moment anymore.

Before you could quickly look over at the linesman and enjoy the goal, now you have to pray there was nothing wrong after they review the whole build up


Last week I didn't even jump up for that Pogba to Rashford goal because I had to see the replay from every single angle to make sure it will stand.

 

[TrueEpic08]

Given all this VAR insanity, City really only have themselves to blame for dropping points. They should've iced this match an hour before that even happened.
