Yes why not?

Silva was ball to hand and no time to react. TTA was hand to ball with plenty of time to react.

Arguable sending off as well as it would have denied a goal scoring opportunity.

Ref bottled it and VAR never overrules the ref.

Get a grip.

It isnt arguable because 2 x professional arbiters of the rules has deemed it within the rules. You're just a Armchair know all who seems to think they know the rules. Obviously you don"t

You must've missed the VAR over ruling ay least 8 decisions this season. 👍

So you think it was deliberate handball ?
 
And for any avoidance of doubt it should've been a one, here is a quote from Mike Riley head of PGMOL

"In this country we have always said – and this is the players and managers saying it to us – that arms are part of the game and as long as you are not trying to extend your body to block a shot then there is more scope so that we don’t penalise.

"What we don’t want to create is a culture where defenders have to defend with their hands behind their back or where it is acceptable for attackers to try to drill the ball at their hand to win a penalty.

"We have worked to our guidelines for the last three or four seasons and by and large, people accept that’s the interpretation we apply and I don’t think that changes next season.”

Rightly or wrongly? It's amazing how we all see the game differently. Being there I cant remember any real contentious decisions that needed VAR.

That’s a tricky one to answer, on the first goal I think pre VAR there is no debate as one accidental handball cancels out the other. With VAR goals have been ruled out for a similar handball further up the pitch in the build up to a goal. For me I think the first goal stands without question.

For the Salah goal, I haven’t seen any replays of the offside with the lines drawn, but on the tv replays he looked Onside.
The sheff utd goal getting taken away yesterday was ridiculous, that should not be what VAR is there for.

Ha Ha Ha Ha, Is this the same PGMOL you disagreed with when they stated Son’s Red Card last week was correct.

Amazing you’ve become a fan of Refs and VAR suddenly.;)

Serious answer is because how swift VAR decisions were dealt with today, it was the speed we’d wish they’d take all the time, although they have to get them right.

Just because we have VAR the rules of the game havent changed.

I agree though VAR has wrongly ruled out goals.i said earlier in in the season how the handball rule change is rubbish, handball should only be deliberate. I even said Sissokos handball on the CL final was harsh.

if that ball hitting hand situation had happened on the edge of the City 18 yard box, and the ball falls to Fabinho do you think the goal would have stood?

The rule is a joke though.
Liverpool were defending when TAA handled it.
But the rule says in the run up to a goal .
You can’t be doing both
That’s why treating handball differently between attackers and defenders just stupid.
 
Once again the worst part of all this is that people are talking about VAR rather than Fabinho’s strike or Henderson’s cross for Mane’s header.
Genuinely think this starting to look like the season they put the final nail in Football’s coffin.
