And yet fans (like yourself) bitch like a god knows what when the "dive" doesnt get the pen you and your player want, because as you say VAR is there to stop it?
Well VAR has been useless on penalties so far as it just backs the ref every single time. So it hasn't really been used properly. They are currently wasting its potential.
 
Is that because it hasn't given you the pens you wanted by your diver?
I do watch other games of football as well. Several incorrect decisions have failed to be overturned by VAR. e.g. Silva penalty against Bournemouth, Villa disallowed goal for Grealish's "dive" when he actually just fell while passing the ball. As well as the Kane one against Newcastle. There have been far too many examples considering we're only 4 weeks in. All it's done is successfully give millimetre offsides and accidental handballs.
 
VAR couldn’t overturn the Grealish decision as the ref blew his whistle.

As he was impeded they could have given a penalty or foul and they is also doubt about the referee blowing his whistle before the goal was scored
 
Never a penalty for me, not enough contact and the whistle went before the goal went in.
They questioned the whistle on motd as the ref never put his hand near his mouth, he had his whistle on a wrist band.
Never a pen and was outside the box anyway.
But officials have been told not to whistle/ flag to see how play develops .
Just a mess at the moment ,
 
Sorry, we're not all Man City and expect to win every game. That mathematically wouldn't work anyway. :rolleyes:
We don't expect to win every game, but 5 points after 4 games, let's put it this way, if it was City or Liverpool who along with Spuds were title contenders. We would not be happy.

We are not and never were title contenders. Nobody on earth thought anyone other than City and Liverpool would be the top two. Expectations are not the same funnily enough.
 
Everyone wants the game cleaned up until they realise it’s their players who are part of the issue

nah I want it cleaned up and you can start with Lacazette and the others at our place that are getting worse week on week, Emery clearly encouraging it (or not deterring it) because its increased greatly since he arrived
