That is a horrendous decision once again. An inch offside according to their stupid lines, in an earlier phase of play - and it doesn't even look correct

Just implement Linesman's call - its so simple. If the Linesman keeps his flag down, and the attackers and defenders bodies overlap, you play on.

That's a 1 mm call. :nono:

1-0 Spurs.


Although not a bad thing, good for Utd to get a reality check.
Knock a bit of wind out of their sails.

What an absolutely shocking decision from VAR. Offside because his toes are offside? Get a ****ing grip..

Either do away with VAR or get rid of offside.

The law is that the player is onside if he is level with the last man. Level should cover every scenario where the players bodies are overlapping.

Exactly, in fact I’d say go for more level than not, then give the advantage to the attacker.

I have no issue with the concept of VAR, but the execution of it is just abysmal. There HAS to be a margin or error.

My thought is to have a line where the last defender is, but have a 30cm line either side where the decision the official makes, stays. A bit like cricket.

Something drastic’s got to be done about VAR, it really is ruining our game.

Either scrap it all together or just use it for mistaken identity and off the ball or really damgerous challenges the referee misses. It’s a laughing stock at the moment.

Not sure that proves he was off side, looks very dodgy.

Yep Spurs defenders knee looks further over the line than the United players foot. Fecking pathetic that there was even a discussion about it anyway
