Didnt take Pep long to teach Rhodri to commit foul after foul without getting booked
Perfect replacement for Fernandinho then 😆

No not quite 98 again. Probably more like 90. Very hard even for a team like City to keep that level going.
So Sterling was inside was he?
Looked line another wonky line when they checked it to me.

I thought was off but not gonna argue with VAR
It’s quick and decisions seem correct

Sterling looked so annoyed Aguero didn't let him take the pen 
VAR involved again, going to take some getting used to, but at least we're getting the right decisions.

Hat-trick for Sterling. Brilliant from him, and completely dominant from City. They're winning the league again, made it look easy today.

Just been trying find the criteria for use of VAR...
The phrase that keeps popping up is "clear error"
If the VAR team are reviewing situations and they see an error that is not clear ( to those on the pitch) then surely they can't overturn an onfield decision.
Now, I haven't seen the game this lunchtime but word is that there was an offside given by VAR that measured a matter of inches.
If that's the case then the onfield officials haven't made a "clear" error...an error - yes. But not a clear one.
I don't have a problem with VAR as such but if the definition of "clear error" morphs into any error no matter how miniscule then there's going to be a lot of decisions overturned.
You could also question whether any onfield officials are needed to make decisions if VAR is going to make them instead. Just have a ref on field to implement VAR decisions.....

i think all goals are to be checked for offside arent they?
2 offsides couldve gone either way depending on at what point the ball was actually kicked (hard to be exact).
if you showed someone who didnt watch football the 2 examples and said that one stood and one didnt theyd never watch the game again lol

Blimey - all after just the one game
Think the clear and obvious has gone out of the window - they pretty much have two refs now , one on the pitch and anything missed will be relayed through , and every offside will be looked at regardless of clear and obvious. For me it’s a poor change in direction , think it’s not long before celebrating stops until they watch a screen

According to the piece I've just read VAR can ONLY get involved if a clear error has been spotted.
It's that word "clear" again....
If they're going to review everything then just say "we're going to review everything" and then at least people will have an idea.
