VAR isn't about common sense. VAR is about applying the rules as they stand, so that justice is done on the spot.
You don't need to refer to the above incident to see what happens when the rules are not followed and justice isn't done. Just go back and read the Spurs game thread 2 months ago. Or the derby the year before, or the final in Kiev, or if you want to go back to years ago, the league games against Chelsea in the noughties, or even as far back as the Inter game in 65. That's just a small selection of our games, where cheating was rewarded and/or justice wasn't done when it had to be done. We still talk about them, no matter how many years ago it was.
My posting style is what it is. I don't care if it's boring. I care about not attacking other Reds. That's been my policy since Day 1 and it's not going to change.
