    Incredible, the transformation since Arteta took over. Only 1 win from 3 but the players just look so much.....BETTER!

    David Luis had a great game today. Intercepting everything. Ozil, so good to have this Ozil back. Pepe, looks like the player we shelled out for. Kolasinac, able to defend, Sokratis, able to defend. Torreira, doing the job he was bought for.

    This is why the Arteta appointment was so exciting!

    Give it a month and #artetaout will be trending

    Klopp out was trending at one point. That's fans for you haha!

    Best think ever. Spurs are conducting a team of the decade poll on Twitter. Crouch is storming away with the striker role. 🀣🀣🀣

    On Twitter today reports from IFAB. We are using VAR incorrectly. It cannot currently be accurate past 13cm. That's huge when goals are being ruled out because an armpit strayed past the line they drew on with magic crayon!

    Fun as they are, those VAR affected tables are fairly useless. At the end of the day "mostly", the correct decision has ultimately been reached, so just shows that certain teams have had more bad decisions made against them in the first place, not that they don't deserve to be where they are!

    Same goes with amount of penalties awarded. Ultra attacking teams like Liverpool and Man City who spend the majority of the match on the attack in the opposition's box are obviously going to win more penalties than lesser, defensive teams who choose to park the bus and rarely venture into the opposition box.

    As Traders, we should know more than anyone the difference between relevant and irrelevant statistics! πŸ™‚

    Correct! πŸ‘

    You would agree. Bin dipper with all those extra points. 🀣🀣

    I don't actually think that 'mostly' correct decisions have been reached because the whole way it has been implemented has effectively replaced the referee seeing things in real-time in full speed with endless slow-motion/stop-motion reviews in a TV studio. When you have suffered through two games in the past three days where your team has been on the end of not one, not two, not three, but four bullcrap VAR decisions that almost cost us one game and did cost us another then it tends to reinforce your opinion.

    WWFC are currently at -7 with the VAR decisions including two goals disallowed for ridiculous non-handball handballs, two non-penalties awarded that took endless slow-mo views to decide they were 'penalties', an opponents penalty retaken because there was supposedly encroachment that can't be seen with the naked eye, an of course the obligatory 'offside' by a gnats bollock where not only has the attacker not gained an advantage but it had zero impact on the goal being scored.

    It is a complete joke and is ruining football.

    They're all jealous fuckers!!

    You keep on believing that bullshit....meanwhile here is a 'suggestion' of what the Table would look like without the VAR nonsense.

    0_1577725951482_Screen Shot 2019-12-30 at 12.10.34 PM.png

    There was one published at the end of last season, if incorrect decisions were reversed and Liverpool would have been top of the league.

    I'm against VAR, being used in the current form in the Premier League, but it is fair when it comes to offside. It is consistent.

    Consistently gifting the cheating bin dippers points you mean 🀣🀣🀣

    Why are we the only country where we do not allow the ref have a look at the monitor when VAR involved? ....plus im a United fan for my sins, had p**s laden bottles thrown at me from Leeds and Liverpool fans in the past, so wont pretend I'm there greatest fan, but at the moment they are simply the best, and when you also have the slight rub of the green, then you are unbeatable.....this will be only praise of them.....now going to stand in the shower for 4 days.
