« Last post by HeartAndSoul on Today at 10:21:42 pm »Porto 2-2 against Sporting.
Amorim's record over the last 3 seasons against Porto and Benfica is quite poor. This result adds to that.
Dodged a bullet there. Lucky escape.
Erm it’s 2-2 now

Hold on, isn't the job of a referee to be reactive to what happens on the pitch, not proactive, prejudging everything and seeking to justify it afterwards?
Yeah but in most situations the word "proactive" has more positive connotations than "reactive" so Taylor thought he'd look better by using it.
Should have just said both prisons and football pitches are full of cheats and liars.

I wonder if his ill advised trip to West Ham with him then having to publicly apologise has affected the team.

He's built a group of mentality monsters over there.

« Last post by HeartAndSoul on Today at 10:20:14 pm »Hopefully he won’t be running around trying to cover the full backs next season and we can actually see the Szobo from the start of this season. The drop in form has been staggering but he’s also got through some amount of running and covering the ground to make up for others lack of athleticism.
The ideal situation would be for him to go away with Hungary, have a good tournament and come back full of confidence. Needs to cut out the loose passes as well.

« Last post by RedG13 on Today at 10:18:29 pm »I know. But who are the players who most often shoot from 0.17 type places? Forwards. There's this weird idea going around, in quite a few places, that forwards should over perform xG and this is just another example.PPL think every big chance=goals when they just not case.

General Football and Sport / Re: VAR! Video Assistant Referee & Shite Referees in General
« Last post by Fromola on Today at 10:16:51 pm »All VAR has done is shown us that the officials are corrupt, not just shite.
That's how it's setup though. The subjective decisions they can pick and choose which ones to intervene on. And does anyone really trust the offside process when such small fractions dictate whether goals are ruled out and ultimately whether games are won or lost like at Spurs today or the cup semi final last week.
At least without VAR you've got one referee who is accountable, at least in terms of reaction. VAR is generally faceless, although Forest changed that with the statement last week. I've seen us cheated more times in the last few years with VAR (by a combination of ref and VAR) than ever before that. Some of the goals we've had robbed off us by VAR is a scandal.
At least when offsides gets automated it's taken more out the hands of the referees, but what the last few years have shown us (with VAR ruining the game) is that technology should only come in if it's automated and it's quick, like goal-line tech or in theory with offsides. It's got no business getting involved in subjective decisions, or the farce of spending minutes drawing bloody lines for offsides.
