pitchside review for offside?
Think we are looking at 10 minutes of added time in the first half for Maguire's knock and VAR

They need to set a clock limit for reviews in all sports. No more than 15 seconds. If you can’t tell by then, keep the call because it’s not a clean cut decision so just accept human nature. It’s not that difficult.
In the manufacturing world it’s important to train quality engineers to understand that if you look at anything long enough, you’ll find a defect. Don’t discard perfectly acceptable product because you’ve uncovered a trivial issue.
Millimeters of offside arm or shoulder fall into that category.

Fulhan defense had the entire field to clear the ball, and chose a bouncing ball down the middle. Woof.
Just about - at least the ones I’ve watched - they either lose deservedly or get a result - usually from a lucky break.
Toffees draw first blood at 7’ - Mykolenko poachers goal. Already had two shots saved point blank before that.
Brighton featuring the geriatric midfield ofLalanna and Milner, hardly the pace you think of when you think of this club
Mitoma otoh, he’s lethal

Fun match with Brentford vs West Ham - back and forth game - wonder goal from Kudus - West Ham 1-2 at the half. Mbueno with three top shelf chances
It’s been amazing. Almost no structure or tactics just players throwing themselves at everything
Havertz with the orange card followed by the ref yellow carding half of Newcastle for complaining. I think the first one was thin skinned by the ref but the rest of those guys should have read the room.
Bruno should be off. Not sure how VAR didn’t intervene. Havertz is such a punk every time he plays Newcastle, or is he always that way?
Flip side, three Arsenal players crowded him earlier when a second successive challenge on Saka yielded no yellow, and that exchange ended w zero cards.
Having no standard set building up to the Havertz challenge == ref losing control of the game. And that looks like it's already happened at this point
How is this possibly not a red? He just ambushed him from behind with a forearm/elbow to the head that was 100% unnecessary and obviously intentional.

He was late, airborne, studs showing. I think orange is a fair description. But whatever, Newcastle should be down a man for sure, so I can’t feel aggrieved.
That VAR check was something.
edit - think they got it right but can’t remember 3 checks on one play.

Crazy! Three issues on one goal. I think it should have been disallowed for the push in the back. But Arsenal losing is good for Liverpool, so I'm fine in the end.
This is the reason VAR sucks though (the goal should 100percent stand) but we're looking at all that nonsense? It should just be to see if there's anything super obvious in the immediate buildup.
It shouldn't have taken 5 minutes to show that was a goal.

They’ve released the video of the check starting at 3:00 here.

Anyone into the whole wrexham story, they’re up 1-0 in the first round of the FA cup on espn+ right now.
Some cool vids on YT right now about Fluminense's unique, space-filling, fluid and overloading tactical approach. Pretty cool in a copy-cat world.
