    The dumb part of this argument is that it could have easily been called offside in the pre VAR days, with no chance to take a second look.

    I’m more upset VAR didn’t look at Pickford for breaking VVDs leg

    I think people are ok with refs making mistakes more than how VAR is working currently wrt offside.

    Lol your GK should have been sent off. Don’t talk about any missed calls.

    They did no? To see if it was offside or not, which would dictate a red or not

    I don’t think that’s easily called offside by any linesman. If anything they were always told to favor offense in 50/50 calls. That looked onside to the naked eye.

    they reviewed the offside, it was not reviewed as violent conduct

    ESPN did a breakdown at the end of the season and there were 5 clubs that benefited more from VAR than LFC last season. They were only +2. I don’t understand the narrative that they were so lucky with VAR last season

    I can see why they’d interpret Mane’s shoulder/arm being offside. Not saying it was right or makes sense.

    I’m speaking for myself only, but when I allude to the breaks going Liverpool’s way I’m referencing more than VAR. Stuff like Pickford dropping a ball right to a Liverpool player on the goal line I count as a break.

    If Pickford howlers are a break then about 13 teams get that break yearly

    Thiago and James were great today. 2 amazing signings. Shame VAR overshadows how good they were.

    I agree, there were a bunch of close games where something (freak or accident) went our way last season, but still blows when a game should have ended up 3 points in favor

    If my team had just lost their last match by five (5) goals, and came away w a road draw at the first place team, I’d be pretty thrilled right now.

    but that’s just me :chan:

    Thiago seemed like he was moving around alright after Richarlson tried to break his leg. But it was only a couple minutes so who knows. Hope he’s OK because he’s a joy to watch
