DERMOT'S VERDICT: I saw this and I wasn't sure it was a penalty. I think Sigurdsson gets the shot away, and then goes over the leg of Wan-Bissaka. When you see that there, he collapses.
You can't give a penalty for something that hasn't happened. I don't think it's a foul, I agree he sees the leg coming in but he collapses.



More bs protecting incompetent referees....
If a player slides in, taking someone out in the middle of the pitch after they've played the ball it's a foul, so why not in the box?

Herr Starr looking freak.
 

What I find really effing stupid is the lack of contextual judgement in these situations. Listening to all these former refs and pundits defend the decision is painful because when shown literal video evidence they all know that it should be a goal but "by letter of the law" a+b=c so disallow it. If they want to keep VAR they need to have a look at the lawbook because these stubborn rash decisions are gonna keep happening without any logical thinking.

It would be nice to see the club double down this week and raise a fuss about the decision and the other VAR wrongdoings committed against us as we obviously have nothing to lose from pissing off the refs.

Was it Moyes who compiled a compilation of dodgy decisions, mostly involving Andy Johnson, and made a as for him/us being unfairly dealt with. I'm sure for a while after we started getting a load more 50/50 calls.
 
Non-VAR decision (which I have just posted in today's football section). Portsmouth v Arsenal in the FA Cup:

Arsenal goal: Sokratis volley - Arsenal player in an offside position right in front of the Portsmouth goalkeeper - goal given...

Shakes head in disbelief and dismay...

And when he had a go at that referee who was always giving United penalties. What was his name. Mike something......

To be fair our goal was given until he folded under the pressure from Utd whining.

The arsenal player looks like he may actually be blocking the keepers view at the point the shot is taken.
Just amazingly inconsistent and unfair.
