1320Lichtie Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 His head looked offside to me. I’ve seen a few people saying this and I don’t get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8MileBU Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 VAR used and worked regarding a goal been chopped for offside by linesman when in fact it was onside Took too long for them to clarify though which made the goal a bit of an anti-climax. Quite a muted reaction from the Leicester fans when it was given. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herman Hessian Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 14 hours ago, Sergeant Wilson said: I liked the ref lifting the ball while he checked, as if they would've played on without him. more impressed with the dramatic "finger to the earpiece" thing to emphasise the fact he was listening for the verdict - would be better if he'd just stood there with his arms folded looking awkward for 20 seconds, or done a hand-jive or sthg - small diversionary cameos during these short breaks should be something referees embrace and use to express themselves, interpretative dance, or obscene gestures to the fans...

Salvo Montalbano Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Fleetwood players seemed to be complaining about the flag having gone up. Surely by now they know to play to the whistle? Even before VAR there's all sorts of reasons a referee could overrule a linesman. I remember us being on the wrong end of such a call at Ibrox (unbelievable, I know) - ball forward, knocked-on, lands to striker, goal - flag up. Referee goes for a chat; goal given. Turned out the flag was for the knock-on, but it came off a defender. The referee was checking the flag wasn't for the initial ball. It was the right decision, tbf. I think in Italy they'd have played on as the assistants are instructed not to flag when it's a close call. Seems a fairly sensible solution there although it'll probably lead to a lot more goals being chopped off which might be seen as a negative?

bairney Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Nice of bbc to finally turn on the clock and score in the top corner. Thought I was back in the 70's or 80's when Norwich would beat Chelsea no bother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul-r-cfc Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Did they just use VAR to decide whether a corner call was correct? Ref was holding the take up and listening to his earpiece Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Brightside Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 I’ve heard it mentioned a few times “what must Nathaniel Chalobah be thinking” with regards to Chelsea signing people. Not much seeing as Watford bought him in the summer for £5 million. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
