VAR has just come back and retroactively red carded Gomes for upsetting Son and Spurs have been awarded a 2-1 win

But the sad thing is that I can see a time when VAR makes decisions 24 hours later. Game is becoming a joke.

The problem is that he goes down all the time clutching his face. I think even our own fans are starting to not like him (me included).

I have been saying it for ages now...its just downright embarassing but doesnt show any signs of improving sadly

Refereeing is not an easy task, especially in the cash infused world we play in where players will do anything to gain any advantage. Richarlison goes down more often than Monica Lewinski, its part of his game. However if referees continue to not give anything then it ceases to be worth it and he'll either stay on his feet more often or we will find someone who can. VAR is a complete woft. We are simply left arguing the VAR decision as opposed to arguing the ref's decision. The ref should be allowed to go to the touchline and view the incident on a screen then confirm any decision, if suggested by the remote official. Thats it!

agree that referees have a difficult job. But when you see Brighton get a penalty last week for nothing . And we get nothing for two blatant fouls on Richarlson. And a fairly clear hand ball. That's three mistakes by the referee and var.
Clear bloody mistakes.
Hard job or not. Three mistakes is just incompetence by the officals.
And not to mention the decisions in recent matches. Minas goal being ruled against WHU a few weeks back...........We could be relegated by VAR. And of course our poor football. VAR and Silva could finally do for us.....

Agree that's what happened yesterday. But referees should not be going into games determined to give certain players nothing. That's not refereeing.

Andy Johnson had a trail by MOTD and was declared guilty,never to get a penalty decision again. Referees eh!

You'd be thinking his manager would have had a quiet word by now.

Part of the modern game look at what Mane and Salah do and get away with week after week I'm surprised they are able to walk after some of their theatrics, half the time they are not even touched.

This is where we fall short again, Silva should come out about how Richarlison is not getting what he deserves and plant it in the refs mind. Klopp and Pep do stuff like this to benefit them.

Richarlison is worse than Deulofeu for over acting now.

Silva is bereft of ideas and wouldn't have the tenacity to stand up to the authorities , he has outstayed his welcome and should go now.

My point being that we are no better off with VAR than we were without it.

Agree.......But if only VAR would give us a bloody positive decision. My attitude would maybe change.
VAR seems to only exist to piss us Evertonians off.......have we ever got a positive decision. Excuse my rant...

Are you talking about Spurs or ourselves?

Haha, unfortunately it didn't matter.

Just wish the crowd was as into it from the kickoff as they were after the injury. They were there for the taking.

to be honest this sounds much better than what I actually thought had happened yesterday.

I thought he had a compound break , where the bone comes out of the leg , mainly due to the reaction of the players but also because of the sky cameras were a bit late to realise what had happened and showed an awful angle of his foot.

allthough aobv a serious injury , i dont think its anywhere near as bad as what might have happened.

eitherway one of our main players will be out for the rest of the season and will have a lengthy recovey period.

all the best AG .. hope to see you bossing it again soon

 

[Groucho]

We need to win this for Son.

We need to win this for Son.

That's what it seems to be across all social media!

Poor Son, such a lovely bloke, not his fault, not that kind of man, blah blah blah.

I hate Spurs. DETEST THEM.
