Re: **** VAR

Leaving aside how shite VAR is, I can’t see a problem with the semi-automated CGI of Foster. The line is taken from Foster’s upper arm - the ridiculously ambiguous ‘t-shirt line’, and shows that part of his body is ahead of the Man U defender’s ’t-shirt line’. By the law of the game it’s offside. I...

Re: Everton v Leeds

The rules are not crystal clear but I’m not sure that in this case that the player needs to have made his body unnaturally bigger for it to be a penalty. He only needs to have moved his arm towards the ball deliberately which he seems to have done by leaning in. The rule needs to be clearer.

Re: Everton v Leeds

Penalty.

A handball offence only occurs if the player deliberately moves their hand/arm towards the ball or if the arm’s position makes the body unnaturally bigger in that situation

Tarks leant to his left to make deliberate contact with the ball.
