Everton and VAR

[Milkman]

It's absolutely insane that they watch it back in slow motion. Watch a replay in real time, like a referee would, and make a call based on that.

 

[Walken]

You can moan,but its the same for every club. You have to dust yourself off and then not lose the game. We don't do that we just collapse and throw even more much needed points away.

They had the momentum after that and we played poorly, but it isn't the same for every club and it had a MASSIVE impact on the game, to suggest it shouldn't be discussed is insane

 

[Bilko]

No other league division in England would a penalty be given for that.

There has to be intent surely.

Var is for armchair fans.

 

[Tin-Tin]

Marco Silva (three) is the first manager to lose more than two Premier League matches against Brighton.

one of the worst things about it is the insistence on judging human reactions in slow motion, for handballs, tackles etc it makes no sense at all

 

[The Blue Watch]

Imagine that being given a pen against the RS. Hahahaha

 

[The binman chronicles]

VAR is just another form of media and you know who controls the media? Big stand FC.

It is the same for every club....I've watched umpteen times when other clubs have been screwed over by VAR so to speak. To think its just us or a handful of clubs is a little naive.

 

[onlyme]

Anyone who considered that as a deliberate foul has never played football. Penalties aren't supposed to be awarded for accidental coming together

 

[garyw]

We have no bottle bad decision but you bounce back we just raise the white flag !

 

[ossie_21]

Var is institutionalised bias.

It has no accountability. No consistency. No fairness.

We were utterly shafted today and someone needs to explain why.

Mike Riley will justify it, nailed on.

VAR didn’t cost us points today. Our performance did. Plain and simple. People trying to make out that the officials are corrupt need to have a day off.

The pen was soft and will continue to be debated but analyse the performance, were we genuinely good enough even for a point today?

Not in my book. Awful all round. We got fortunate with the equaliser in the 1st half and apart from Theo’s chance I can’t remember us creating any clear chances. When they got the pen, whether it’s unjust or not, Marco MUST reset the team. He didn’t.

We lost our heads, lost our shape and conceded again. Even the most die-hard Evertonian wouldn’t argue that 2 of their 3 goals were absolutely fine.

It’s not VAR. It’s the players and the management.

Don't be soft. No VAR shocker we win that game - simple enough.

I hated the system since the world cup, this is a thread for var, var is being discussed having failed massively again, it really should be a massive surprise to you

 

[dannyboy]

if that had happened in a derby, that game would have gone seriously wrong

Is that being given for us in front of the Kop on 93 minutes? We all know the answer to that.
