I couldn't bring myself to use the phrase 'absolute worldy'.
:d
I thought I liked VAR, then I didn't, then I did. I think I'm back to disliking it now. It needs to be smoothed out and whilst I first found the suspense in waiting for a decision to be exciting, I now find it to be far too time consuming and whether it goes for you or against, it's just another excuse to slow down the game.
If you took VAR, throw ins and subs etc, I reckon we get to see roughly 60 minutes of actual football a game.
I'd rather the usual debate that goes with disputed decisions happens between officials. For that reason, I think VAR is good.
At Brighton on Saturday there was a lengthy VAR check on the disallowed goal, and then 1 minute of added time at the end of the half. Factor in the new hokey-kokey goalkick set-up and it's a time wasters charter.
Why on earth did they change the goal kick rules? What was wrong with it before?
I think VAR could be good but they’re being too pedantic about it. “Clear and obvious”, in an offsides call, should mean clearly ahead of the last player, not two centimetres ahead. And the new handball rule is just shit.
VAR should be about avoiding game-changing obvious errors, not stamping out every bit of ambiguity from the game.
Offside, like the new attacking handball rule is a binary thing. It either is or isn't. They need to change the rule so the line is taken through the torsos. There are also reasonably valid arguments that defining when the ball is played forward precisely is fairly inexact at the moment. In short, it's all gack.
Challenge system is so much better.
Where are streams these days?
Hesgoal is pretty reliable for all football.
Thanks, but Disco just sent me a link. Please warn him for piracy.
Cracking finish.
It will also help all of you to know that I had £5 on Rashford to score first. Also have £5 on us to win 2-0, 3-0 or 3-1.
He came from France!
Brilliant finish from Tony.
Martial has scored 50 goals for us holy shit lol Never would've imagined for some reason.
He did a slide tackle whilst face down on his chest.
So are Wolves having a bit of a Burnley bounce here? They looked pretty crap last week and haven't been much/any better in this.
United looking great which is disappointing. AWB really is a cheat code as someone mentioned last week. McTominay still seems useless which is a saving grace. Hopefully they return to form in the 2nd half and concede a few
Adama has been on the protein since I last saw him.
If we had a better player than Lingard at number 10 I think we'd be in danger of being a really good team.
This guy Lingard, I hate to say it considering he's still so young with so much promise, but I'm not sure he's really up to standard.
Should have brought Wayne Rooney back.
I like that whoever whoever is doing the game for NBC has our boy down as Danjames and done away with the silly Daniel bit altogether.
Dan James just makes him sound like an Aussie convict.
Daniel Bellion.
Jesus.
Neves is just too good from that range.
I'm a big sucker for shots that go in off the bar too.
I would love to have seen that disallowed.
Every game that goes by is making me dislike VAR more and more.

John's always been completely incapable of spotting sarcasm, but I'm surprised at Spiky getting done there.
Why is Rashford not taking penalties?
