EPL 2019-2020 - Where VAR is run by a 12 year old

Is this even the case? Is it not only handled differently if it directly impacts a goal, regardless of if that happens inside or outside of the box?

 

A lot of people on her continue to argue it was the right call based on the new rules. I don't think anyone is arguing against you. Hard to blame City fans for being upset in the moment on having an extra time goal overturned that no one saw as an issue before hand. But I think once the moment passed and the game ended, I don't see anyone arguing that it was a bad call.

 

You said it.

 

I think the handball rule says in the buildup to a goal, I don't think it makes a difference inside or outside the box

 

I believe this is correct. Any build up to a goal. Doesn’t matter where it occurs. I’m not 100% sure on the interpretation of “build up to a goal” I really hope it’s not as delayed and dumb as the offside rule via replay is on hockey.

 

We’re going to have the same fucking argument at least twice a week for the entire season. It’s going to be fun.

 

I could be wrong but I believe the handball has to either create the goal directly or the player who gained possession from the handball has to create the goal for it to be disallowed. I don't think a handball followed by several passes and then a goal would be called back.

 

Tbf
I meant to say that it’s been arbitrary the goals they have overturned or what they have considered penalties

They have already missed several things

 

Thread title

 

I’m not even entering the fray yet. I’m waiting until I get fucked on a bet or Arsenal death by VAR.

 

That was my first thought as well when i saw the replay. At this point it’s insignificant, but did they ever show a definitive view of this?

 

He was onside.

 

To be fair, Oliver signaled handball immediately.

 

Can’t believe Sheffield didn’t score there.

 

Sheffield keeper in a baseball hat? Not sure I’ve seen a keeper where one of those but I guess it makes sense if the sun is brutal facing that direction.

 

Pickford does it frequently

 

I totally forgot Connor Wickham exists.

 

a wild connor wickham appears

 

Why do Palace have like 3/4 sleeves?

 

palace is going down this season

 

It is amazing Palace has been in the Premier League this long, and sans Zaha, this is the dogshit roster they have.

 

Tough to remember all the hype Benteke got at Aston Villa, he's completely useless

 

It’s why they absolutely wouldn’t sell Zaha. He’s worth more to them than any amount of money.

 

Big fan of the Blades. Hope they stay up.

Spoiler

But not in spite of Chelsea.

 

I get it, but instead of improving the squad around him, Zaha the Championship player is going to go for £20 in the summer.

 

Thought this was interesting

 

Chelsea's just smothering them in the early going

 

Ndidi you idiot

 

This type of energy is a real change of pace for Chelsea.

 

What a block.

 

Pretty by Giroud

 

that movement deserved a goal, shame on you Leicester

 

I really like Mount’s game

 

Is it possible to look like more than a twat than James Maddison?

 

No.

 

nice game of hoofball to end the half

 

How many times is Maddison gonna fuck up these opportunities?

 

Ndidi you genius

 

Should maybe mark that guy

 

Azpi has been culpable for like half of the goals scored against Chelsea so far.

 

Oh, James.
