That's dismal. Really dismal.
It would appear that those behind the monitors in the VAR room are doing everything in their power to make sure it looks absolutely crap. Once again, VAR isn't an issue, the people using it are, just like the World Cup which produced some hilarious decisions. Seemingly also forgot, to be used to correct a clear and obvious error. As above with the other two armpit mysteries, what was clear or obvious?
A) We really need to review the crap out of clear and obvious
B) We need to change offside rules to be measured from the feet.
C) Mimicking A, if it's not clear and obvious an attacker gets the benefit of any decision. Being ahead by an armpit or a few centimeters hasn't gained him any monumental advantage. If you have to actually draw a line to compare and can't work it out simply via naked eye then he's automatically onside.
This isn't Formula One, where a millisecond is a lot.
There doesn't seem to be an issue in any other league when it comes to stuff like this. They give the attacker the benefit. The FA and Premier League are embarrassing themselves.
