They need to figure out what VAR absolutely is needed for. I would use it for dangerous fouls the ref didn't see (elbow to head, cheap shots, etc.) and if a PK is a PK or is it a dive (but not if there was a handball in the area). I don't need a center ref looking at all the ticky tacky things. Also they're wasting too much time and they're definitely not making that time up in extra time.

Hell, watch any bad team beat a good team in a good league, they're so much time wasting and the ref never gives the full amount. The ref will give 5 - 6 minutes max rather than the 8-10 minutes that the bad team has wasted.

I can't wait for a Drogba style outburst at the end of a EPL game because of VAR fukkery:

No idea how they can keep their cool as it is. If I was lee Alexander I’d be in the VAR room with a steel chair.

okay?
it's still been correct 90% of the time
Breh I'm all for it in theory but the implementation is :scusthov: and that penalty bullshyt was fukking criminal :scust: if that happens at the men's WC I can only imagine the scenes :picard:


And frankly 90% isn't good enough, the whole point of it is to be 100%

:mjlol: Luis Enrique quitting Spain.




:dead:


There has to be some phuckery going on at the FA, for Lopetegui to did what he did and now Enrique quitting.


I thought he was going through some personal stuff???



This guy wants to from from Man Utd to Juventus, back to United and now back to Juventus :dead:


Pogba my boy but aside from money what was the point in moving to Utd? Juve was coming off the UCL finals and United was stuck playing football on Thursday nights.

I’m in Toronto right now. My ESPN+ account isn’t working and I can’t find the channel these Canadian pricks put the Copa America on.

I just wanted to watch the game and crash. Instead I’m sitting here watching some French talk show :thiagofacepalm:

Palmieri told ESPN Brazil : "On the WhatsApp group, the last move there was Hazard’s farewell.

"He said goodbye to the boys and such, since then, we don’t know anything else. It’s weird.

"He sent a ‘thank you, I love you guys’, and then it showed ‘Eden Hazard left the group’.

"I said damn, he really left."
