Our players should be and are capable of passing the ball at the back until a forward pass opportunity arises . The alternative of an aimless pass forward would just end up with another attack to defend . ..but, eventually on way too many occasions the ball inevitably finds itself on Guaita's foot to be booted out for the opposition to find anyway, against teams that are not pressing as much we can pass the ball along but today at Southampton was not the time nor the place to be doing that, they have to understand when to and not to better. You're right though the players have definitely upped their performances with much improved passing, I'm just so frustrated with today's result because we had it in the bag!

i havnt read this thread, as a)cant be arsed & b) it will be full of dickheads looking for a scapegoat. we are 9th, 28 points after 20 games...moan about that not kellys faulf, not wilfs fault because his armpit hair was offside. a point away is a point away. we are doing well, lets enjoy this point. i will say however, macarthy & meyer starting makes us pass the ball forward better. Correct.

Correct. No, sorry I'm not having that! Enough is enough.... we've been striped up by VAR and the FA. Sure we're having a good season cos we're a decent club, but are you gonna sit back and say VAR was right. Fvk off right now..... if I was Wilf or Meyer I would have walked straight off the pitch ffs. I'm livid and I'm gonna do damage over this. You sit back and comply with VAR and the fuxking FA bvnch of cvntz
Mine's a light and bitter. |

Looked a perfectly good goal chalked off, that’s a couple of bad ones that have gone against us now.

Dumb decision. How is there an advantage to having an arm in front of the last defender?

Also working out where to draw the lines is done by a human and not technology so yet further room for error! How you can decide when the ball was played, where wilf’s shoulder ends and arm begins EXACTLY and where that is in relation to a boot with a margin of error of up to almost 39cm is a flippin joke and VAR is ruining the game in its current form and interpretation. Okay so can anybody clarify the rules for me because as far as I've always been aware the offside rule states that a player is offside when a playable part of his body is beyond the last line, i.e. Any part of his body he can use to play the ball, NOT his hands or arms yet I've seen countless times this season, including yesterday, offsides given in VAR for arms or even hands beyond the last line. What exactly is the rule??

Arms and hands do not count when considering offside...

....but when you combine Andre Marriner on VAR duty and Wilf, they do...
