FUCK FIFA

In football, as we all know,it is better to be lucky than good.

Hahahahahaha it's so nice to see how VAR and justice always fuck Guardiola. Last season he would win CL without VAR. He also robbed us in 2008 with Barca. 

[Tomo 21,733]

How many times are we going to celebrate goals only to have the rug pulled out from under our feet?

I get it for obvious errors but every little thing is ridiculous, it's going to to ruin the game.

VAR has denied two teams 3 points over both matchdays.

Not overly concerned with thisnone. It is the rule and it is not that bad.

The one that s ihorrible is handball rule in UCL. That one is just ridiculous

new rule over the summer

even if NOT a handball, any contact on the arm cannot lead to a goal

But that one is not little thing. They won't chalk that goal off if Laporte tuck kane shirt a bit. But handball is very simple rule especially on the offensive side. If it touch your arm is not a goal

[Vesper 29,154]

which is insane in this case as it BARELY and ACCIDENTALLY brushed his arm when he was in on/off contact with another opposing player

last season and before it was a legal goal

NO ADVANTAGE was gained in the slightest

only now, post summer rule change

last year, it would have stood, VAR or not

[communicate 2,703]

For us, it is better for city to win this game. Our goal is top 4 and spurs is one of our rival. I honestly don't see us competing with this city team, they are so good. They created  ton of chances while conceding almost nothing against spurs. Not any team spurs. That is just ridiculous. 

 

[Vesper 29,154]

trust me, I guarantee we will get FUCKED this year, probably multiple times by this new rule

and Victimpool will skate every single time on some unknown technicality they dig up

Yeah, I know about the new handball rule especially on the offensive side. You may not like it but for me this is just a small thing. 

My biggest concern this season with VAR is defensive handball because it was implemented very2 poorly in UCL but so far it has been good.

It was ball to hand, accidental. I'd prefer human error to this, sucks the joy out of the immediate aftermath of a goal, imagine scoring what we think is a CL winning goal only for it to be chalked off a minute later for a ball to hand?

For sure have an extra pair of eyes in the studio to flag up obvious errors IMMEDIATELY so there's no minute celebrations for nothing, but little things like ball to hand or whether a player's cock is offside getting called back a whole minute after celebration is too much.
