VAR at it again 21:59 - Aug 18 with 837 views | Heisenberg | Our friend Solent Toffee will be up in arms. It seems the people operating VAR are absolutely clueless. A shocking decision at Leeds tonight. It was never a penalty. Thank god it’s not in our league. |  |

I agree with you although his arm was by his side, he made a deliberate movement to block the ball with his arm |  |

Agree. It's arguable that it wasn't accidental. The Everton player leaned into the ball with his arm even though is arm wasn't stretched, to stop it going on target. [Post edited 18 Aug 23:12]

VAR at it again on 23:09 - Aug 18 with 666 views | Ifonly | It was a pen all day because it was "hand to ball" not "ball to hand". Perhaps he didn't deliberately handball, but he did deliberately move toward the ball to get in the way, with his arm being the part of him nearest the ball, so he got what was coming. Tarkowski gave the game away by claiming that the ball hit his side, not his arm. A bit daft really because VAR can see the replay, but he wouldn't have claimed that if he was innocent. Any Evertonians up in arms about this had better put them down or they'll give away another pen. |  | |  |

VAR at it again on 07:47 - Aug 19 with 403 views | Berber | At first viewing, I thought is was a harsh decision, but looking at it over again, watching the progression of the ball and player, he effectively leans into the ball with his arm, not the other way around. So correct decision for me. |  |
