Agenda

Absolutely pathetic attitude to play the victim . Sometimes you get the rub of the green and sometimes you don’t.

Look at the tackle on Greenwood against Southampton that was clearly a red. VAR had a look and did nothing. If he gets sent off we comfortably win the game.

These things happen. Don’t have to feckin cry about it

United fans really have no reason to moan about decisions and VAR.

He isn't complaining about VAR. The Arsenal fan is.

I dont ven think its the big decisions like ths that are the biggest problem. Its the small ones. When we attack let a foul go so they win possession and when they are attacking give every tackle as a foul so they have a free kick in dangerous positions. The Brighton game being a good example

It makes such a massive difference in possession and territory that it is a game changer. I'd say this was the biggest influence in 5 dropped points since the restart. the games agaisnst Brighton and Leicester were hugely influenced by dodgy refs.

I didn't think it was a red card.

Also didn't think the Greenwood tackle was either.

People really need to understand that these are opinions and not fact - you haven't been shafted simply because the referee disagreed with you.

Good comment, it's the small decisions that really sway most close games.

Whether there's an agenda or not the refs in this country are bloody useless. Isn't Mike Riley still in charge? Says a lot.

How much more evidence is needed that there is an agenda against the team? How much more can we take as fans? We pay money to follow a team that participates in a corrupt system. It's sickening

I really can't. That's because a United fan shouldnt moan about VAR at all.

Theres a difference between moaning about VAR decisions and claiming that there is a systemic agenda against your team

Fact is we are seldom on the winning end of VAR decisions this season. VAR cost us about 10 points this season.

Sure it has

In a shocking turn of events, the more a team has the ball and the more time a team spends in the opposition half, the more referee decisions go in their favour.

Thank you for sharing your whole wisdom with us. Have a nice day.

You're welcome.

Hopefully one day soon you can understand the madness of claiming that referees are biased against your club.

Most tackles look brutal if you freeze frame the point of contact. In real time it's a different situation, which is why common sense prevails, and there aren't 10 players sent off each game 😅

Nketiah was sent off after a 'freeze frame'.

Show me where we got rub of the green? How am I able to find 4 examples of this very unique situation just in one season. How blind can you be?

VAR just highlights how bad and inconsistent refs are. It is frustrating watching other teams get soft penalty after soft penalty but then see Pepe very blatantly tripped and VAR just ignoring it, or Sokratis being clearly held and VAR sleeping.

However, when you go past inconsistent VARs who are scared of making calls that go against on field officials and look deeper at things like the disallowed Sokratis goal where the VAR has overruled the ref and fabricated a foul then you question if there are inconsistencies or just pure corruption.

Then you remember Mike Riley is their boss and know for certain it is the latter.

Well refs and VAR dont make it easy for Arsenal fans not to claim there is a bias against us.

As a supporter for another club you can't see it of course.

3 very similar challenges in the last week or so, and the only one given as a red was the one the ref actually looked at again.I think that all 3 of them were worthy of a red card, and I think it's ridiculous how reluctant either the referee is to go to the screens, or for the VAR team to recommend he take a look at them.

The main problem that VAR is highlighting is how crap the VAR officials are. We've been asking for help with the decisions forever, and it's seemingly not being used for that.

I don't think that there is any bias against one team, or for another (if there were, especially towards United, then the challenge on Greenwood would surely have been actually given as a red?)

Lacazette’s goal against Liverpool should’ve been cancelled for a brutal foul on VVD, that would’ve been consistent with the corrupt farce of VAR. It’s unfair on Liverpool tbh considering that Chambers foul and cancelled goal.

That's right - everyone else is unable to see what is 'certain corruption' as DJ puts it.

Jesus wept.

So are you essentially saying that you wont be playing CL football next season because of VAR
