One shot on target each most of matchI must be watching too many of our games, I thought the Arsenal/Utd game was quite entertaining
Think it was wolves outplayed em tooIt wasn't a great game and I thought Utd were second best yesterday, as they were when they were beaten at The Spuds place two weeks ago. They could have quite easily crumbled yesterday...In fact they did; They have made a habit of it away from home with this new Dutch bloke. He has had a few nasty beatings during his tenure.

that is not offside.
I thought the rules of VAR was that there had to be daylight between the attacking player and the last defender?, all these lines between the attackers leading arm and the defenders trailing leg is so last season.Disagree mate. Look at the Utd goal yesterday. VAR is supposed to put a line across the pitch from the most attacking point of the attacker and most defensive point of the defender. It didn't, it put the line on the defenders body when his head and shoulders further back. The lad was onside, Utd should have won. VAR got that wrong not the officials and that one error could cost millions.
Football is not a freeze frame, slow motion game. They are turning it into a computer game. That is wrong. But, even as a freeze frame, the system still got it wrong.
The other thing with offside (and I know this is really pedantic), the freeze frame can't tell when the ball leaves a players foot. A defender sprinting out and an attacker sprinting forward, how can VAR know definitively the millisecond the ball leaves the players foot? Simple answer, it can't. So again, VAR gets it wrong.
Throw in that it kills that magic moment of goal celebration too and surely that is also wrong.
Human error, incompetence and biased referees drive us all up the wall, but I'd rather Keith Stroud every week than VAR.
Brian Clough once said “if you are on the pitch in an offside position then you are interfering with play”. I agree with the great man.
Off side should be the whole torsothat is not offside.
Or clear daylight between the players.Off side should be the whole torso
Racism, sexism, homophobia...Can't get rid of VAR what would sly have to talk about 7 days a week.
If the ball goes back to him then he is offside, but until then he’s okay.Wonder what Brian thought a corner taker could do once he's launched the ball in the box.
