    I'd say that's a safe bet Captain, Leicester bound to **** this up again.

    Sixth place for them I reckon.

    Another great day for VAR as they measure the offside lines to the wrong player & ignore the obviously onside scorer.

    Excuse afterwards - we couldn’t get a line to the goal scorer, so we couldn’t overrule the original decision.

    Obvs using their actual eyes is against the protocols or something. <doh>

    I've become a bit disillusioned with VAR ... not with the technology or the concept ... but with the idiots that have all the advantages in the world yet still make the most ridiculous decisions ... the Son one was just beyond belief ...

    Couldn't get a line on the goalscorer? What a load of ****. They just ****ed up and measured the wrong bloke. Morons.

    Same, I was all for it, as losing games to refereeing howlers was something that I personally struggled to get past, and the idea that off field assistance could remove or certainly drastically reduce them was a no brainer for me.

    But the implementation has been shocking, the offside **** in particular. If you’re looking at a still frame and you can’t 100% tell a player is on or offside then it’s not an obvious error, the end. Put the lines in the ****ing bin and give the benefit of the doubt to the attacking player.

    As for yesterday VAR is getting the grief for that, and imo they shouldn’t have got involved, but ultimately that incident was caused by a player cheating.

    Yeah they’ve been ripped to bits by West Brom, 2-0 is flattering them.
