Didn't Calum Wilson have a goal ruled out for handball yesterday even though his arm was close to his body?

Was that just because he was playing against rather than for one of the big 6? :unsure::whistle:
A goal is ruled out for handball if it hits the arm of the attacker that results in a goal, even if accidental, if he hadn’t of scored and a Lpool player had put it out for a corner, VAR would not of reviewed it!!

Reasons like above is why VAR is getting so much ridicule.

And next season if Callum Wilson does the same thing the goal will still be disallowed; but if he handled it in the same manner but Joelinton tucked it in, the goal will stand. Go figure. And how, in reviewing it, VAR did not see the push on Wilson as he shot I will never know.

Not only is it broken, it appears beyond repair.

Bit broken record but genuinely think its needed for them to start to explain the decisions they are making after the match, put it down in black and white and then the utter inconsistencies of the decisions will be even clearer for all to see!
 
At least we managed to play a bit in the second half, it hasn't been as horrible as the first was. Laporte should have been off in the first half which rankles a bit of course.
 
Serious question for the Spurs fans.

The two subs that Spurs brought on Bale and Alli. Is there honestly no place for them in the starting 11. Son, Kane, bale and Alli is a serious threat.

I thought his tackles were as bad as ? Regulion. Could of been 10 v 10.

Did Bale even touch the ball after coming on? Lucas Moura has been one of our best players over the last month. He caused your lot problems to the point you just hacked him down and took a yellow card every time.

Maybe if the fans keep on about it they might listen; worked for ESL...
 
He hacked Foden down early doors and wasn't booked. Later booked for a similar foul on (I think) Mahrez. So yes 100% the same. I even think the ref pointed that out when Spurs players were asking for a booking for Laporte's first foul.
This, ? but the second tackle was on De Bryune. If we’re talking about Laporte being sent off, then so should Regulion. But it’s all ifs and buts. Shall we play the point the finger game. If the ref had booked regulion for his first hack down, then he has to book Laporte. But he didn’t. So the ref is consistent. Is that not what we want. What I found amusing was when Foden was hacked down. He took it on the chin. When Laporte brought down the Spurs lad the Spurs players surrounded the ref. That did not help.
If the ref had booked Regulion twice and sent him off Laporte is not in that position for a second offence As the game has changed.
its no use talking about ifs.
For me I would be a disappointed Spurs fan for that performance in the same sense City were rammel in there only previous semi final in the champs league v Real Madrid.

No, but if you took the trouble to learn the rules that have been in place for the last 2 years, you would know.HTH
