I think it's a foul but ref was looking right at it and didn't call it - so not "clear and obvious" for VAR to impose themselves on the game.It's a clear foul, come on. Doesn't play the ball, looks at him, barges him off it, which stops the defender clearing it.
I'm Norfolk, so profoundly Norwich in the East Anglian derby argument, but even so, I'd like to see Ipswich back in the top flight. They've suffered enough, and long and hard, but they're still a historic team, I'll be glad to see them back, their fans deserve it.Hull 3-3 Ipswich. Mental game.
Excellent point.I think it's a foul but ref was looking right at it and didn't call it - so not "clear and obvious" for VAR to impose themselves on the game.
The fact it's "soft" is EXACTLY why VAR shouldn't be getting involved. They just re-reffed the game.It's a clear foul, come on. Soft yes, but he doesn't play the ball, looks at him, barges him off it, which stops the defender clearing it.
Villa drop points and Chelscum bitching and moaning - happy days!

Hahaha, you must be another old fella!I suppose a quiet humming of 'Blue is the Colour' would be too much?
100% correct. Referees not allowed to referee now. I wonder if referees are told before games that if they get sent to the monitor they have to go with VAR?The fact it's "soft" is EXACTLY why VAR shouldn't be getting involved. They just re-reffed the game.
It's soft in terms of the action from the player but it's quite a clear foul. The only reason Chelsea won that ball was because they shoved the Villa player in the back.
