This post has been merged from a topic called 'VAR so far...' by bexleydave On MoTD last night analysis seemed to suggest Mane dived for Pools winning penalty. No VAR decision which also suggests big clubs at home still will get away with the close calls. It was blatant cheating in my opinion. A little bit of contact - two players coming together (if you'll pardon the potential innuendo) with no adverse outcome, then Mane throws himself to the floor like a small bird that's been shot by a French villager.

Yes, with a foot to fall over that's exactly what he did and on the radio it sounded like Albrighton had totally cocked it up but he clearly didn't.

No penalty, football cannot be free of contact. The player clearly dived and should have been red-carded. Just when I was getting happier with VAR. The ref gave it under Anfield home team pressure, thought VAR would have seen the end of that. Plenty of work to do. Liverpool deserves top spot, but shame they have divers like Mane (blatant against Leicester) and Salah in their team.

As there wasn’t enough contact in the fouls to make him fall. Mane was no different to any other attacking player in the league going down easily. Including Wilf. They all do it.

VAR is obviously an important step forward, after all the major reffing mistakes that were not corrected. I feel that it's in the same state as the first season of umpiring reviews in cricket, where there were some clear problems which were sorted during the close season. There are always marginal calls and decisions in most sports and it's the very tight ones which take the time, as with our winner yesterday. I think it's the most significant VAR call in any of our matches so far, and am just relieved it came out right for us.
The right place at the right time |

Fair point, but I rather suspect Albrightons foot didn't move as much as Manes ..also because of how he had played immediately before the incident he would have had his head in his hands for that alone lol.
