Cannot express how much I hate VAR. Totally reducing the drama and magic of football down to farce, going to make a lot of people disillusioned with football imo both players and fans

You'll still get it though as shown on MOTD just then - hands all over players on corners going unnoticed yet the ball brushes an arm down by the players side which he knew nothing about and a goal is ruled out..

Finland should definitely put him in their side for the Euro qualifiers.

This.

Within the rules of the game (which does include the harsh handball decisions) we'd have very likely seen Spurs, West Ham, and Leicester all have lost their respective games against Man City, Brighton, and Wolves without VAR which would've meant that these teams didn't win because they were the better teams on the day, but instead because the Referees were either incompetent or corrupt which obviously isn't on.

VAR does need to come to it's decisions quicker though I will agree with that.

yes Pukki & my Fortuna's new Karjalainen could be a good attack duo


Raitanen is also amazing, how he came from liverpool academy, reserves to Fortuna this season, very hard worker also in training and he adds a good mentality to the team even when he is reserve

City were by far the better team though

And that handball rule is ridiculous as there's no way the ref can make that decision in real time no matter how competent they are

I mean Man City were the team who would have dropped the most points had VAR been in place last season, you also have many serial drivers

Man City were more entertaining than Spurs, but Man City were less clinical in front of goal than Spurs in the match considering that they had 30 shots on goal and they only scored twice.

And I agree with you that the handball rules need amending for next season, but VAR isn't really to blame for a silly rule that would exist without VAR's existence, all VAR has done is just enforce the said silly rule.

same here last night too, PSV had deserved a penalty, the ref first said it was a clear handball

but the VAR said ''you need to go watch it back'' and then all of a sudden it was not a penalty anymore, since it was deemed an accidental handball

the VAR are more like ''how to make a complete fool of the referee''

Neville going crazy on why Pogba took the penalty. Dont worry MU fans Pogba will apologise on social media tomorrow and it'll all be OK.

I'm not even a Man Utd supporter and that decision to have Pogba take the penalty frustrated the hell outta me.

The starting 11 does look stronger this season though and a win against Palace at the weekend should see them in quite a nice position in the table which will be a nice change after being rank outsiders for the title in recent times, even in the year that they came 2nd they were miles behind Man City which doesn't look to be the case this year so far.

I think that the overall squad is where Man Utd will probably struggle to keep up with Man City and Liverpool this season, but I think that Man Utd fans should be happy with the start that they've had as they've remained undefeated against two tough teams.
