Morata

Have we ever seen a player go from great to shit this quickly?

Streetspur77 · Jan 17, 2018

Morata is so shit ahahahahaha

ardiles · Jan 17, 2018

Willian is fuming tonight. Love how the cameraman zoom's in on his face whenever the game comes to a stop

I would say closer to 99.9% a peno but I agree it seems it will only be used when the correct decision in blindingly obvious to all...which is a good thing I guess.

The more I looked at it the more I'm leading towards a penalty. What I thought was him going down before the contact looks more like he was jumping over the opponents leg.

The biggest argument argument against VAR is that it will slow down the game too much. So if you have a hypothetical room of 100 neutrals watching a replay, and 99 say penalty and 1 says not a penalty. Should VAR get involved? We'd all agree yes. The problem with VAR is when it's 90/10 or 80/20 or 70/30. Where is the magical line where it becomes clear and obvious? That is the problem with replay in football, the NFL, and any sport that has interpretations.

Just have it on auto pilot for all Arsenal matches.

A lot of Norwich players running on empty, plus they put on a lot of attack-minded players in search of the equaliser and are now having to defend.

Ummm ... no? This is a replay, not a second leg.

Dirty pricks wanting a penalty every time they get in the box against championship team.

Definitely going to be interesting. I hope it works but have doubts after seeing how much controversy there is in cricket referals which is a much slower game with much tighter more obvious rules.

Does it mean PKs if it's even after extra time?

The price of Andy Carroll has gone up another £5m today.

To be fair, they should have had one already. And yes, I'm glad they didn't get it.

Not just Championship teams, they did it against us in the semi last year Moses v Sonny, they did it against Arse in the final,but paid the price with Moses being sent off for the dive.

Yes. They haven’t changed the rules have they?

Shame it'll still cost more to insure him than it will to buy him.
