Carragher just pointing out Watkins was fouled before the disallowed goal - he should have gone down if Ogbonna had both arms around his neck

Defence cost us the game not VAR, or watkins miss. midfield poor. Grealish doing his party tricks and trying to beat half their team again. last season deja vu indeed. I wouldn't mind so much but west ham were crap, really poor imo. Them being 5th is worthy of an episode of Arthur C Clarke's mysterious world (one for the kids etc..). Utter arse overall.Two really soft goals, but have to disagree it’s anything like last season. We absolutely dominated that game, we never dominated any games like that last season that I can remember. A couple of sitters and a penalty missed, so architects of our downfall to an extent, but VAR did deny us a draw that was more than deserved. On VAR in general, the absolute worst element of it, as Watkins scored, I celebrated, my 10 year old sat there and said ‘naw dad VAR will rule it out’. That’s before the replay. Totally taking the joy out of football for kids, that’s the worst bit.smart kid. to be honest, the commentators were calling it. If they disallow stuff like the bamford goal, then Watkins was deffo offside by those standards.

On the positive.We have not yet being completely been rolled over and well beaten this season. Even Southampton We have been on the whole this season played very well at times.And lost 4 points to shit VAR.I am have been probably for years the most sceptical fan on here for years. - but I can see the future is ours.
It’s another one of our bad streaks under Dean though. Four out of five defeats against teams we need to compete with. Friday starting to look pretty important.
I also think that commentators might be influencing the fuckers watching the monitors too, oooh, that's offside, oooh, he scraped an eyelash so must be a penalty! Slowing things down always makes it look worse than it is. It's a shit system and if it's too close to call, don't bother with it.
