Maybe I don’t understand the rules of the game, but it’s odd that it’s a foul on Raya when you’ve got more than one Arsenal player virtually rugby tackling various West Ham players to stop them getting to the ball. Happens all the time but makes no sense that one is a foul and one isn’t. |  | | |  |

I think Rice was holding him before the arm on Raya.He was holding him as he starts to make a run. |  | | |

I called it straight away, Raya would have caught the ball if he wasn’t impeded. |  |

I mean Raya is being fouled by multiple West Ham players before the Rice thing happens. I thought it was a foul on the GK in real time and would have been 100% given in the Championship, but can understand why the Ref let it run with VAR |  | | |

The only thing I don’t understand is why it took so long to disallow the goal. |  | | |

Granted its split second but on the action replay, you can see that the arm is already up on Raya - Glad I am not a ref because there is so much riding on that goal at both ends of the table | | | |

Still don’t get why it’s perfectly acceptable to hold a player round the waist to prevent them getting to the ball. Would never not be a foul outside the box, but seems it’s fine inside. Drives me mad. | | | |

And Arteta would’ve had a meltdown if arsenal had had that goal chalked off.I still hope they bottle it just to see his reaction. | | | |

Hammers robbed by very soft Var decision against them, thank fcuk it’s been thrown out by championship teams | | | |

I can think of a shed load of things more irritating than Arteta.
If you want to go with annoying Managers on the side line think Mourhino, Nathan Jones, Warnock (except when he was ours), Scott Parker's outifts are worse, Tim Sherwood.
For tactics, anyone who has managed Knob End in the last decade, Russel Edwards, Pulis, Alladyce, McLaren (especially when he was ours).
Or in general, the length of time it takes for VAR to make a decision, goalies going down with fake injuries to get a time out, Knob End shithousing, inconsistancy of refereeing, any kit made by Nike, the cost of any kit made by Nike
And pribably a lot of other things a lot more irritating that Arsenals manager... |  |

If a defender had his arm positioned in a similar manner on a forward going for the ball in the box, does anyone think the ref would award a penalty? |  | | |

Just for once VAR got it right. Raya was being fouled by West Ham's 19. His arm was a Ross Raya's neck.
It took a long time as it was far from clear with so much going on around both keepers. |  |

same incident on the opening day of the season, Arsenal at Man Utd, the goal was given |  | | |

Spurs or West Ham next season guaranteed now.
Would love it to be Spurs, but am sure it'll be West Ham. | | | |

I’m glad I’m not in London for the final games of the season.Spurs and West Ham both at home at the same time and Arsenal away at Palace.Throw Leeds and Everton into the mix too.Who’d be a copper eh?
And Fulham at home to Newcastle too. [Post edited 10 May 19:55]

In real time, its given as a goal.
Saw it in a pub, so didnt hear explanations as how the attacker is meant to balance himself going up. His arm was across the goalkeeper but with little force. Think VAR has and will ruin the game forevermore.
That decision has basically decided the champions in Arsenal and relegated West Ham.
Question - If that happened at the other end and it meant Arsenal equalised or won the game, same incident, the goal is given, am sure.
VAR - Just gives more time and more reasons to balls up a fair and equal decision. It is a blight on the game and is the worst thing bar none that has been introduced into the game in the modern era....
Its just matter of time before we have to endure this dumbass system..
Maybe ring a West Ham mate and see what their opinion of the VAR system is, right now !! [Post edited 10 May 19:53]

I always look at these and consider whether I’d be cross if the goal had been given against us. In this instance I’d have been pretty cross so the VAR decision was right in my book. | | | |

His arm was across the keepers throat for the duration of the entire corner, if that’s not a foul then I don’t know what is. | | | |

The stuff that goes on at corners are unbelievable and the FA are going to need to do something about it......this happens is every football match that is played professionally.
I never saw the incident in real time but VAR got the right result (again!!). | | | |

Arsenal are the worst offenders when defending corners I have ever seen. Rice I don’t think ever watches the incoming ball but instead just tries to haul down or block his opposite number. Never gets penalised for it. | |

Already clips online showing Arsenal scoring goals with nearly exactly the same contact on keepers and the goals have stood. |  |

Really - a secret gooner in our midst.
A six minute wait for a marginal decision.
VAR means no fan can ultimately be sure in celebrating any goal and fhe delays kill a games momentum.
VAR gets as many right as it does wrong and those on here appreciating it, cant understand that.
It turns me off the game completely. Almost getting to be similar to the stop start games you get in the NFL.
Appreciate referees get many decisions wrong but VAR has been misused dreadfully and its an awful addition to the game and sometimes gets it wrong or decisions are exceptionally marginal.
Seems theres a few VAR fans on here - but sorry - not for me....
When we get it at Rangers, thats when i stop attending..... [Post edited 10 May 21:05]
