      Ali is the best keeper in the world, F***ing period.

      Had he not been injured we could well have been in 2 cup semi finals. Kelleher has been at fault for more goals this season than Ali has the last 6 years.

      The Equalizer 3.
       
      Came out on Sky Cinema today, was gonna wait until maybe Sunday night or the bank holiday to watch, couldn’t. I now know why I couldn’t. Hands down the best of the 3 which is rare for sequels. Denzel aint no joke even at his tender age, always a few steps ahead….leaving bodies behind in his wake, often violently.
       
      To think all this could’ve been avoided had the halfwit wannabe brother took his advice and taken his business elsewhere….NOPE, he didn’t wanna listen!!!!!
       
      But yeah, a definite must see

      I said before, on this issue I don't care whether I'm in the majority or not, it's totally irrelevant to me. I said 6 months ago, that a picking a side in the debate, is akin to picking a football team. No matter how good bad or indifferent it is, you don't change. I will never change on the issue, that's just the way it is.

      Ask the majority of football fans, to allow the ref have absolute control of subjective decisions, and they'll tear into him the minute he gets it wrong, just as they've always done and still do. Whether it's manc goalkeepers cleaning opposition forwards out, or sticky toffee puddings mistiming their challenges in the penalty area, or mancs crowding around refs for not playing advantage in injury time, there will be no respite for the man in the middle. Cue more bogus allegations flying around of bias and corruption, that can never be proven.

      It doesn't matter what football fans think. Or even what I think. What matters is that the correct decision is given. And the data will tell you that VAR helps to deliver that far more often than it doesn't.

      Thank you for confirming you’re not coming at this from an objective stand point and admitting that even if VAR cocks up a hundred thousand times in a season you’ll always have its back… you’ve lost all credibility in any argument you’ve ever made on here with that first paragraph there… comparing supporting VAR to supporting Liverpool… what the actual F**k?  :lmao:

      Point 1. This is why Plato argued that debates are stupid, because one side takes a position, and no matter what the other side say, they will defend their stance because it's about winning the argument; unlike the dialectic, who discusses the opposing view with a view to finding which position is best, usually through compromise.
      Point 2. VAR when using technology (as for offsides) though not perfect, will give a definitive answer, and in obvious cases the correct one. ALL other VAR interventions are subjective and open to interpretation and bias, and so can't be trusted to be correct....or incorrect..essentially they're just someone else's guess.

      Plato they say could stick it away, half a crate of whisky every day

      We know why that cup tie ended as it did. He wasn't the reason.

      With him in goal, we dropped 4 points all season. With Alisson in there, we've got 4 points from his last 5 league games.

      We now have to live with the consequences of all that.
      There is literally no way of ever knowing that if Kelleher had been in goal these last 5 games we'd have got more points than if Alisson was in goal...it's conceivable that if Kelleher had been in goal we'd have got no points at all....or 15 points. There are too many factors that decide a result than who is the keeper.

      VAR had nothing to do with the incident, and should not even be referred to, not even in a general sense.

      Factual calls such as offside calls are usually not seen by the ref on the monitor. The VAR tells him everything he needs to know.

      If I can't convince you, then I'll remind you how long was left. At least 60 minutes to go, with 10 men away from home. With the hysteria over the Spurs error, you'd be forgiven for thinking we were robbed of a win there in injury time.

      While you remember that and the limited number of similiar incidents, I don't forget the open goals missed at Brighton and Luton, and at home to City and Arsenal, all of which cost two points each. That's 8 points lost. Nothing to do with officials. (Add in the McAllister header last week, and it's 10 dropped) This is now the point of the season, when all those missed opportunities hurt most.

      Never mind, much simpler for you to throw corruption allegations about, which can never be proven.
      Listen carefully: I mentioned VAR in my post completely independent of the Gakpo incident ( in answer to the original posters point)...I made that clear, read it again ..I said that VAR had nothing to do with it and that it was 100% a referee error.

      This thread is about VAR...So you can't just introduce broader football incidents to qualify your argument...that's just silly.
      As for why we lost against Spurs...it was due to the unfortunate own goal in injury time....Even though we were robbed of a perfectly good goal.
