Match Thread Everton v Manchester United - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[Nasseline]

Very positive second half. 4-5 new players in the summer, and we will definitely be in the race for top 4 next season.

 

[KaiserEFC]

Oh look...the refs a manc.

 

[PDAWG]

Nope 4 incorrect decisions as of November which is less than half the season. That’s all and the last time they’ve admitted it too. The fact they’re actually admitting it also speaks volumes. So your point that someone watching a screen being able to make a better decision is actually incorrect.

So it's 4 then

 

[KaiserEFC]

So it's 4 then

So you’re piped down then?

 

[Alan Whittle]

Carlo calls the decision “borderline”.

So NOT a clear cut fix from the FA then lads, eh?

They have their hands full fixing it for your lot.

I'm still absolutely raging here, havent been this mad in a long while

there shouldn't be a margin of error with VAR though

There isn’t with definitive things like offside, balls crossing the line etc. But subjective things like pens, handballs and decisions like today, it’s still ultimately a judgement call, it just allows the ref third party perspective and the ability to re-watch the incident, which eradicates much of the debate but not all of it.

 

[Joeharper07]

also the defender touching the ball is playing the man behind him onside.....

That’s not right , as soon as it leaves our players boot it’s offside

Oh here's my lapdog

*down boy*

Not a lap dog just calling it like I see it, any Evertonian should be furious at that today

 

[Steve Wigan]

Couple of questions......The VAR decision was offside.Can you be offside if an own goal is scored? ...and....Is a player interfering with play if some yards away the ball is deflected by a defending player to an entirely different sight line..
Another thing...if there was ever any doubt that Carlo is committed to Everton, there shouldn't be after today.

 

[longers]

Views seem pretty split on twitter, definitely been worse var calls this season. Frustrating regardless.

 

[Paul Rideout]

We've worked out that it's 4 incorrect decisions they've admitted to getting wrong

Not a great deal really is it?

As of November. How many have they gotten wrong since Nov 30th?

 

[Bakayoko Ono]

He still doesn't touch it. De Gea watches it roll into the net without any interference.

If he gets up and back onside, which should take an athlete in his prime max 3 seconds, there's no decision to make.
