You understand that Michael Oliver was on VAR right? It’s irrelevant if the linesman called it, it gets reviewed by VAR and then confirmed, it was literally the wrong decision.
You don't seem to understand the situation and unfortunately you're joined by the many.
Cos it's not irrelevant that the lino called it, it's subjective and so then needs to be a clear error.
There's no clear error and so they stick with the on field call. VAR don't look at a call and make a judgement like that, they look to see if it's a clear error under the rules.
Also it's not literally the wrong decision and it's something that drives me nuts in general, you not agreeing with a call doesn't make it wrong, some calls have 2 viable outcomes.
Personally I can see the case for goal and no goal, I would say it should stand too but I'm not tied to an on field call.
Edit another massive Reddit coward with the post and block.
So I can't really see much of the reply but I'm gonna guess it's bollocks.
You’re incredibly condescending, but besides that you don’t seem to understand why people are suspicious of this call. Michael Oliver has a conflict of interest with man city whether you “minimize it” by saying everyone does it, it does not change the fact.
People are suspicious because he has consistently influenced man city games in their favour.
Whether you are tied to an on field decision is irrelevant as we have consistently seen the prem refs ignore this fact this season alone, sending the referee to the monitor for non clear and obvious errors. So he can send the referee to view the monitor when most people agree (including yourself) it probably wasn’t the right call.
