REACTIONS ON VAR CONTROVERSIES IN THE PREMIER LEAGUE THIS SEASON

The VAR have caused a lot of controversies this season and offside margins have been decided by non existing body shape and natural positions, here we start this thread by Gary Linekers comment on VAR decisions in the recent mid-week game; I’ll say it again, level is no longer onside, and the game is worse for it; 

It should only take 1 look at it...If it’s not clear and obvious it should go with the onfield decision of the linesman in that case he didn’t get flagged so it’s a goal.☺️ It’s not cricket fella. The linesman isn’t keeping his flag down because he thinks it’s onside. They are told to just keep their flags down unless it is blatantly offside and let VAR sort it out. It’s the offside rule that needs changing.☺️ How can you change the offside rule he’s either offside or he isn’t... what would be so hard in saying let the play, play out and you make the call if they think it should be looked take a look if it’s not clear and obvious the linesman got it wrong you stick with linesman’s call,☺️ 

Easy, change it back to what it used to be, when level is onside (as Gary said). They won’t get rid of VAR unfortunately so limit it to use for serious foul play, we have goalline technology, which is perfect, and let referee’s and linesman referee the game again. Simples. Agree with most of what you say but goal line tech isn't perfect. I can't remember which game it was but earlier this season a goal which had crossed the line wasn't given as the tech didn't pick it up.☺️. But that is only 1 incident in thousands.☺️ change it to what then? all your doing is judging where 2 lines are no matter what.☺️ Linesmen don’t flag even when it’s 5 yards off. They wait for VAR, it’s all balls.

They can make decision after the play has been played out still, atleast the linesman would still have a point been there too these days .we’ve had it twice in bamford one he go flagged one didn’t both just as tight so if that’s tight you go with the onfield call get rid of lines☺️ That is perfect, that’s the best way I’ve seen it describe, about how VAR should be used. That is exactly the way it should be.☺️. Get rid of the lines don’t need them, plus atleast the linesman would still have point in been there because at the minute there’s no point at all in them☺️.

Your suggestion sounds good but it will cause more problems than we have now. What determines " if its not clear she obvious" you wasn't consistence but yet complain at what will give us that☺️. I think they should just measure everyone from their furthest foot to make it easier we don't need all this fancy angle☺️. An arm over the line should not be offside if said arm is not creating any advantage. The body mass should be the decider☺️. Any part of the attacker in line should be onside. Like all of the ball needs to cross the line to be a goal.☺️

Wouldn't you have the same issue but checking for "daylight"? I don't even get what the rule is meant for anymore. I'd just get rid of offside☺️. Exactly. The problem is VAR. Where you draw the lines just moves the argument to the other side of the body. Offside decisions weren't meant to be made by cameras shooting 50 frames per second trying to best judge when the ball was struck and then analyse two players anatomies.☺️ Perhaps just go like cricket with umpires call. If it’s close enough to need mm lines it goes with the attacker and everyone can stop raving about offsides?.☺️ Lol...People wanted technology now people argue about degree of accuracy.☺️ 

Offside was created so the attacker didn’t gain an unfair advantage. What advantage did Werner gain?☺️. At what point of being offside would he gain an advantage. What if he was a yard off? Half a yard, 30cm 29cm. Where do you draw the Line?.☺️ I get what you’re saying. But they made Werners pointing arm as to where he wants the ball as offside...☺️ Should be daylight between players, it’s a defenders job to defend, we’ve lost the battle between attackers and defenders because rather than that, it’s all about trying to catch them offside. Never been daylight as far as I can remember. Since I've been watching football, late 80s players have always tried to play offside.☺️

It’s like the mane offside v Everton and Werner today. Where is the attacker actually gaining and advantage. It’s ridiculous. It’s like people that never played the game are making the calls.☺️. You can say that about every marginal offside given by VAR. Look how many goals have been ruled out by a player's sleeve when they running away from goal.☺️

Controversies have been on VAR since it inception, it's about time a line is drawn so we wouldn't let some technology ruin the beautiful game of football.
