I’m going to get a lot of ❌ for this but the VAR decisions at Southampton last season took the shine off the result for me . A bit of a hollow victory considering the questionable decisions that went in our favour.
It’s killing the game , but as with everything PL it’s all about things apparently being fair and the £££ that’s at stake .


Questionable? The first was a clear handball by the modern rules of the game, his arm was out. The second wasn't VAR anyway the ref gave it for a punch in the back (yeah our striker went down easily but otherwise you don't get the decision for what was a clear and obvious foul). I was more drunk off with smith later in the season for staying on his feet after a keeper did the same to him after a corner, it was a clear foul, but you don't get it unless you go down.

The other VAR decision wasn't contentious at all, their 'second' was offside narrowly but definitely.

Personally I flipping loved it and the fact some premiership millionaire club lost due to VAR which they themselves wanted made it all the sweeter!
