I agreed with Jamie Redknapp, this is what VAR has brought us. Agreement with that numpty.
Joking aside, if we were to put up the 5 most ridiculous VAR moments, that would be up there. Maybe getting the right decision in the end would negate that but they had a natural line drawn for them. In the first picture, you had Danjuma sat (more or less) bolt upright on the mowed pitch line, you had the VIlla player stood a foot past this line. Bang, decision made. Add to the fact that it was also a foul and without the foul 100% chance of it being even more obviously offside. 10 seconds, decision made because of TWO clear and obvious reasons.
The fact that they started to look at the guy in front of the keeper when the shot was taken blew my mind. Unbelievable that they would even consider looking at the next phase of play and then go back and give the offside for the first one. The cynic in me would say that they were buying time while looking at the first one, trying their best to come up with a reason to give the goal but in the end decided that it was just too obvious, on this occasion.
