So right, I always found the best refs were prepared to talk with players while the games was flowing, mind you they tended to be on Saturdays were there was a different type of players from Sunday morning.

Easy to say when the game you play isnt a billion pound one.
Sunday kick about down the park, just for a laugh is a world away from top level football.
While I agree, good communication really helps things flow, that doesnt mean the actual technicalities dont matter. Getting decisions right is critical.
I'd say "trips on the turf" is a very generous way of saying "pretended there was contact by kicking the floor like the cheating clam he is."

I was at a rugby match the other day and the TMO was absolutely dreadful. No one had a clue what was going on, apart from the half dozen people who forked out the extra £7 for the TMO radio headset (non reusable).

Good news. Will be great news if they improve upon how it was implemented in the World Cup.

I'm surprised Sun Tzu hasn't had something to say about this.

Pochettino, after Chelsea's bring-your-own VAR suggested Kane was offside after all:
"I don't like the VAR.
"Today we get the benefit of it but after watching the World Cup and another league like La Liga, I see that nobody is happy from day one that they started to use it.
"To get the benefit is nice but I am unhappy to win the game like this.
"We all have to agree - the players, the coaching staff. I watch La Liga every week and nobody is happy, the big clubs and the small clubs. If you are playing to win the title or to stay up, nobody is happy."

I'm not sure I've ever celebrated an important goal so little. It is a complete passion killer.
If a goal had been scored and you had to wait to see if it was given then yes. But VAR was used to award the penalty, so Kane still had to take the penalty and score so you would have celebrated as normal once Kane scored the penalty surely....

they really need to get a better routine worked out.
the early son penalty claim, did the ref even ask for it to be checked?
was sanchez booked for hazard falling over the ball? surely thats a clear and obviously error?
the lamela one late on, surely that should have been allowed to play on and if he scores then VAR check it? it was at best a 50/50 tussle, whats the point otherwise, you can't restart the game with any advantage to the attacker if the ref has fudged it up.
