Corky Posted 25 April 2021 Share Posted 25 April 2021 I hope Mahrez one day says in public that we did him a favour not letting him go to Arsenal, that the year out of the Champions League wasn't the end of the world and we then let him join a level of team his talent deserves. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foxfanazer Posted 25 April 2021 Share Posted 25 April 2021 To have only 2 shots in total in a cup final is shocking no matter who its against. Spurs gonna spurs though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing that bugs me with the close offside calls is it was supposed to clear up clear and obvious mistakes being offside or onside for that matter by 1 cm is not clear and obvious so why dont they go with crickets way of doing things get linesmen/women to do what they used to and flag or not then if VAR has it as that close it goes to Umpires linesman/womens decision.

StanSP Posted 25 April 2021 Share Posted 25 April 2021 How has Maitland-Niles conned the ref for that penalty? Konsa barely touched his foot. Same for Barkley's. Two very, very soft penalties won. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s the way it’s supposed to be done, that’s the way the IFAB want it to be but it seems the leagues are interpreting the rules differently Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could go even further and each team has 3 VAR appeals and if they are upheld they don't lose one of their appeals. Go back to how it was prior to VAR and let the officials make all the decisions, but challenges to decisions are made by the Captain and referred to VAR. Where it's too close to call, stay with the ref's / ref's assistant 's decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if they use their 3 appeals in the first 5 minutes and they are all overruled , then that's it. No more appeals. However, I feel that appeals could be limited only for a) when a goal is scored b) penalties c) sending off 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
