I mean I don't mind it for offsides in particular because those are reasonably clear cut and goals are such enormously significant events. But the general implementation just doesn't seem very good.VAR is pointless. It seems so pointless to hold up games and disallow goals for millimetre-precise offside decisions and balls accidentally brushing attackers' fingernails when there is so much systemic cheating built into the sport. It's like they've sat together and gone "how can we make goals even rarer in an already low-scoring sport" and come up with this.
I feel offside just now works like DRS would if we removed umpire's call from lbw decisions but told umpires to continue giving benefit of the doubt to the batsmen the way they always have.I mean I don't mind it for offsides in particular because those are reasonably clear cut and goals are such enormously significant events.

I guess DRS was kind of jank early on too.
I suspect so, and that's always my point to people who want to give that ball shaving the outside corner of leg stump out based on HawkeyeI feel offside just now works like DRS would if we removed umpire's call from lbw decisions but told umpires to continue giving benefit of the doubt to the batsmen the way they always have.
You'd end up with a load of marginal decisions going the way of bowlers which wouldn't really feel satisfactory.
Correct take.Yeah VAR sucks. Once we got goal line technology that was football sorted
Souness is more miserable imo. Keane has a biting sense of humour that Souness lacks.Is Roy Keane the most miserable pundit in the country?
Aston Villa don't believe in defenseFair play Arsenal that is a really good win. Could look back on this day later in the season and see it as a pivotal moment. Huge 3 points that.
I can see what you mean, but Keane often says something over the top in dreariness and then stays silent as if he's just beaten Winston Churchill in a battle of wit. Such a miserable ****.Souness is more miserable imo. Keane has a biting sense of humour that Souness lacks.
Keane can be ok tbf. The Neville interview he did in Ireland a few weeks ago which was over 2 hours long was pretty entertaining. He was genuinely warm and amusing and the punters loved it....I can see what you mean, but Keane often says something over the top in dreariness and then stays silent as if he's just beaten Winston Churchill in a battle of wit.
