I find it so infuriating that VAR is used in such an awkward, time consuming manner.
There's what, four referees in a room watching that footage? Surely the obvious thing to do is to make decide, & have the outcome of the decision based upon the pitch refs original decision plus their choice having seen the replay.
That way the 50/50 decisions will always be effectively decided by the pitch ref, who has the best feel for the match but no benefit of replays, but the blatantly wrong ones will be overruled by the VAR's as they can use replays.
It won't completely rule out every poor decision, but it'll eradicate almost all of them, the ones that remain would be the grey area ones that still cause arguments regardless, & most importantly, it'd speed the process up, cos last night that was a joke.
I get the idea of the autonomy of the pitch referee, but that's undermined entirely by telling him they think he might have got it wrong & to review it. He's already under immense pressure by his peers who have the benefit of multiple camera angles & replays, so he's more inclined to reverse the decision.
To have a system with potentially five professional reviewers using the system to see what they think, then passing that decision to just one professional to review it again & make a decision is fucking mental.

Var so far has been a disastar.
It is depressing that we’ve had such a poor run while they’ve won almost all their games, drawn what one? And lost one?

You were worried when it was Maureen.
You are no worried because they've had a great run with no pressure whatsoever.
Stop worrying about the Mancs.
They're not your team, move on.
So non English Teams through so far
Porto Ajax..
Barca should be through
And either one of A Madrid or Juve (forgot they got beat in the first leg)
Can Munich join them or will we see 4 English Teams in the quarters.. ?
Hopefully if we get through we get Ajax or Porto, and the other English Teams get the tough side of the draw..
Ideal..
UTD Vs City
Spurs Vs Barca
Though I suspect it would be
Munich/Liverpool Vs Barca
UTD Vs Porto
City Vs Ajax
Madrid/Juve vs Spurs

I bet same pundits wanking over the penalty yesterday is the same that felt this was no penalty as it was not deliberate...
What? I have heard nothing except us being bottlers as we bottled it by being Cowards against Everton and United. Its not old.
Would that be the same Ajax that have just battered Real in their back yard then ?
Hopefully...
Absolutely...
Actually you know what.. if we fail to qualify I want A.Madrid to win it at their own ground .
That would be sweet
They have been god awful unlucky with trying to win that over the last decade...
I couldn't give a shit who wins it, as long it isn't the scum!
But you would clap your hands once if we happened to win it?
If we won it, I'm going for a curry!
