I actually think Lampard's Chelsea will finish second in the league. Chelsea is a really good team but needs few players to make it a competitive team.

fuck you VAR. if it wasn't for this, shitpool wouldn't win shit for another 30 years. disgusting..

Dude I know you are upset and frankly I think with introduction of VAR offside rule needs to be reformed, offside was introduced so strikers dont get unfair advantage behind the defender. According to the "RULES" TODAY, this is the CORRECT call. VAR applied the correct rule, HOWEVER, the rule needs to change, really in this case, is the striker getting ANY adv? not if you ask me.

What I don't understand is where is the advantage? How on earth can anyone argue that the Wolves player gained an unfair advantage because of this. The goal itself was the next phase anyway, it wasn't at this stage. Liverpool defence had plenty chances to clear it.

Liverpool have had so many VAR calls this season it's unreal. The VAR champions :D

The Laws of Game reads "
A player is in an offside position if:
  • any part of the head, body or feet is in the opponents’ half (excluding the halfway line) and
  • any part of the head, body or feet is nearer to the opponents’ goal line than both the ball and the second-last opponent
"
Again, the correct call was made, the LAW of the game is the one that needs to be updated.

I agree, the law needs to change first.
But VAR is being used in the wrong way in the PL. They use it in Italy and Spain too but from what I understand, not for every freaking goal.

I am sure the EPL will look at this for next season. This way can't possibly continue.

As I mentioned before offside rule must be reversed. It should not be offside even if a toe of the attacking player is behind the defender. Like it is in ice hockey.
