Batman Posted 27 October, 2019 Author Share Posted 27 October, 2019 Looked similar to me as the Keane penalty yesterday, how is a defender supposed to stop something like that? Never kick the ball, Mane comes from behind him, Aurier is looking at the ball and is trying to kick it and Mane just blocks his leg in the way. clear penalty to the "there was contact" brigade which meant mane "was entitled to go down" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OttawaSaint Posted 27 October, 2019 Share Posted 27 October, 2019 clear penalty to the "there was contact" brigade which meant mane "was entitled to go down" Exactly, they realize they are in no position to shoot or pass so try to get contact and then go down. What’s a defender supposed to do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tajjuk Posted 27 October, 2019 Share Posted 27 October, 2019 Thing is Aurier is in possession of the ball, so how can Mane be fouled if Aurier has the ball and is trying to kick it, if anything its a foul the other way. We basically now have attackers either throwing their body at defenders to get contact or kicking the ball at defenders hands from like 3 yards away and getting pens for it. And VAR never over turns these silly decisions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shandy_Top_89 Posted 3 November, 2019 Share Posted 3 November, 2019 Yeh was no where near a red ! Atkinson in general had an absolutely dire game, it was almost worthy of investigation it was that bad. I mean you have to also consider the implications of that red card beyond just the game. Son will possibly be blaming himself for that injury now when he shouldn't be. It also increased the volatility of the crowd towards him and he will no doubt be spammed with death threats and the like on social media. It was seemingly altered to a red on a flippant illogical whim. Its not as if he couldn't refer to the technology if he was uncertain. As for VAR, it needs to remain. The issue is the guidelines and the quality of the officials reviewing, that will improve over time. That penalty non decision was a right mess though.

Rather than removing cheating we now have more diving than ever. Na his own personal performance was below par in that case. Any increase in cheating can be halted by changes to guidelines, this is more down to the quality of officiating and the quality of those in charge of the rules than anything else. Video tech is becoming another irrational scapegoat, once it is scrapped it wont return. What will be our answer to the ****e quality of officiating then?

Baird of the land Posted 3 November, 2019 Share Posted 3 November, 2019 After listening to 5live i was expecting the Everton penalty appeal to be some burning injustice. It wasn't it. Accidental defensive handball hasn't generally been treated as penalties this season. So VAR understandably didn't award a penalty. Need to get rid of VAR though. Delays the game and idiots will try and force its use as a subjective inconsitent rereffing tool. I don't agree with the reasoning for the Son red. Looking at the result of the tackle to decide to upgrade the card is wrong imo. I wouldn't have minded it being a red because it was a nasty revenge hack.
