The manager, who said this week’s events had made him more committed than ever to City, is adamant regarding who drove the charges. “It is the Premier League,” he said. “I don’t know why. You have to ask the CEOs, Daniel Levy [the Spurs chairman], these kinds of people.”

"these kinds of people" ?? wow

Pep needs a final solution to this problem.

Not sure why Villa are being forced to play confirmed cheaters Manchester City this weekend. Man City should be forced to forfeit the game and give us three points imo.

They had that run of being really poo poo but then coming back to win (e.g. Bournemouth) that seems to have stopped when they played Brentford.

They also drew VAR lines on the wrong defender in the Brighton match and chalked off a good goal, PGMOL have admitted that this was a human error. They also missed a blatent red card for a Brighton player.

VAR was meant to limit human error but they've just moved it from the pitch to three idiots sitting in a room. It needs scrapping or they need to seriously limit the instances it can be used.

they get 15 seconds to make a call and if they can’t clearly see the error in that time the referee’s decision stands

Why aren't they using the auto line technology used at the world cup? That seemed pretty non controversial? I can't see why we're having three idiots drawing lines when computers can draw a plane in a 3d image in less than a second.

At least it was accurate, rather than the farce of two wrong calls in one weekend because premier League referees can't draw lines.

That said, this does even out that dumb Rashford decision against City a few weeks ago in title race terms.

offside actually worked better when it was the man with the flag, because you don't actually get an advantage from your elbow being 1mm offside on a freezeframe of a free kick being taken. They made mistakes sometimes but the mistakes were always obvious on replay, which means:

I would love to see their explanation of how someone drew a line on the wrong defender, I assume it will just be "Sorry we are incompetent". I mean you have one job and it's not a particularly hard one.
