It was given as a free kick originally

Amazing how you win a pen by not challenging for the ball , but just fall down in a heap

It was a pen, take your rose tinted specs ofd

Bollocks.

You just know it’s a penalty for other teams but wouldn’t be if it was us.

 

[portlander]

Embarrassingly bad right now

 

[Drebin]

Just saw a reply at an angle where it shows Lallana jumping up and Kane backing into him. Oh well.

I’m seriously thinking of not renewing - Var is just ruining the game. Our Pen chalked off against MU, then look at Liverpool’s and Spurs pens this weekend, it’s a ****ing big side favouring joke. I’m not paying £600 to be cheated week in week out.

I'm feeling this way too. F**king hate VAR. If they are gonna use it, just have it for OBVIOUS mistakes. I thought that was what it was for.

That was one of Murray's old tricks, normally on the half way line, which refs got wise too and waved away.

Bollocks.

He jumped straight through him ffs!

 

[Justice]

How many times have we seen Murray not get awarded a free kick for that #joke

Commentators all agreed it was a free after looking at a few angles. Then when given as a pen they agreed with that too. No consistency.

Never a penalty in years gone by but the game has gone bloody soft now and was always going to be given

I'm naturally quite pessimistic but this feels like the year we go down.

Can't score (and for some reason start this game with no recognised striker) and we're plagued by calamitous defensive lapses.

Not to mention getting f**ked by VAR after the whistle. And whilst the game is going on.

Just feels like our time is up for some reason.

Webster worries me. Keeps giving the ball away

By today’s standards, with penalties what seems like every game I’d say it was a foul.

BUT that does say more about the state of football IMO, any contact and players go down because they know VAR shows any contact they will give a penalty, when we all know that contact doesn’t mean it’s enough to go down.

 

[kevo]

No pen for us, of course.

 

[Sarisbury Seagull]

Now that has to be a penalty!! It is a genuine foul! FFS VAR *****!!

 

[andys320]

No penalty, of course. FFS!

That’s how it was last season. I believe now the remit has changed. It can now check for key decisions.

 

[Ding Dong !]

I make that 4 penalties given away in 6.5 games !!!!
