    Not sure why Guehi looked so miserable after scoring.
    Maybe it’s just dawned on him that he plays for the wankiest team in England and he can’t wait to leave in January.

    Arsenal deserved it on balance of play.  Decent penalties until last one.

    Like Wembley 98, the keepers nowhere near any of the penalties until the crucial one  :)

    Gives us a chance against 11 lesser internationals.

    VAR offside on haaland is a joke.  It’s not clear and obvious.  Move on.

    They were almost trying to find it off side. What a joke

    I posted this on the other thread:

    VAR, what is it good for, absolutely nothing. I mean about five minutes to decide if Haarland was offside or not. It’s meant to be for clear and obvious errors. If you need to look at it multiple times it’s not clear and obvious. I fucking hate VAR. Offside given? Fucking ridiculous.

    A number of times at the weekend, including our game, the commentators said how nice it was not to have VAR and have spontaneous reactions to events and no long delays for decisions.

    Please scrap VAR, it’s ruining football.

    I'd be interested to see the viewing figures for this league over the past couple of years. Must be dropping like a stone

    They should just give the VAR officials one replay, at full speed, and if it's not a clear error from that then decision stays as it was on the field. 

    This whole drawing lines nonsense is ridiculous - if you have to zoom in and draw lines all over the place then it's not a clear and obvious error is it?

    It's the same ref as we had on Saturday isn't it?

    If Newcastle gets an equaliser it would be a shame this is over 2 legs. Been entertaining match and would be good to decide it tonight with extra time and possibly penalties.

    He’s obviously in an offside position (he’s closer to the goal than the second last defender, which is Nick Pope in this instance) but it’s a question of whether he was interfering with play or not.

    Incredibly subjective whether Haaland was blocking the defender and goalkeeper from playing the ball so probably shouldn’t have been overturned.

    At the very least it shouldn’t have taken that long to decide if he was or wasn’t interfering. Realising he was in an offside position to begin with should’ve taken no more than 10-15 seconds.
