       When you are 35 yards behind play, and central, no angle, you
       cannot make the call.   The referee does not even appear in
       screen shot he is so far away.
       If anybody is bored enough ,check the taking of Southampton
       penalty kick,   Moss, adopts a position at the 18
       Southampton 10 is actually ahead of Moss at the taking of the
       kick, so much so that Moss will not have been able to see the
       kick being taken!   10 so far in the box he runs ahead of the
       referee!!!

       First of all i commend foden in his actions.
       However Once again referees do not encourage honesty, thus
       diving and trying to con officials will continue unabated, and
       as such officials reap what they sow.

       100% agree.
       You dive, you over-react, you scream like a baby and you get a
       decision in your favour.
       You try to stay on your feet and play the game and a clear (very
       clear, no VAR needed, just a decent position and a good pair of
       eyes) foul goes unpunished.
       If you were a team manager / coach who's job depends on winning
       games, what would you do??
       Its hard enough for referees without making it harder with this
       nonsense.

       Your observation about the Southampton penalty is incorrect
       because Adams is not ahead of Moss when the ball is kicked, in
       fact, it is debatable whether he is actually in the area at that
       point.
       Never mind, it could all have been sorted by VAR if there was an
       offence.
       Get rid of the onfield officials, they are not needed because
       everything they do is questioned. Do it all with VAR and you
       instantly rid the game of the onfield referees who masquerade as
       players as well as having less opinions on what is or is not
       actually happening.
       Has the game change so much that we really need 6 officials?

       You don't need to post pictures for my benefit because I have
       gone through the video clip frame by frame and know that the
       exact moment the ball was kicked Adams was still behind John
       Moss. One second later  there were several players in the box,
       however, I have no problem at all about this penalty.
       To be honest, it is not worth nit picking because it is all
       consigned to history and the penalty was scored, no matter what
       we think about it.

       The non-penalty award when the GK fouled Foden was really poor.
       (a view expressed by Mark Halsey incidentaly). If VAR is there
       for good reason other than highly marginal offsides and the odd
       VC off the ball, it has to intervene for errors like this.
       Surely Madley will have looked at various angles which clearly
       showed it was a foul.
       There will be occasions when the referee will be a distance from
       an incident in the penalty area.  Sometimes it may be poor
       positioning or lack of anticipation or focus, but it could
       happen when a long ball is played into the area and an offence
       quickly occurs.  Unless the AR can help him, it can be difficut
       for even the best sprinter in those circumstances with the
       referee too central and too far away.
       Whether that's any excuse for Jon Moss, I'm not sure, as I don't
       recall the build up to the Foden incident.  It doesn't excuse
       VAR Madley though, does it?

       Debatable doesn’t come into it. This was a clear and obvious
       error which VAR is supposed to be there to correct and quite
       frankly failed.
       You can blame Moss - and let’s face it he gets more than his
       fair share of criticism on here, some of it unjustified in my
       opinion - but the real culprit undoubtedly is Andy Madley who
       had access to umpteen camera angles and still didn’t see
       anything wrong. I find it staggering that he came to this
       conclusion and as others have said it makes a mockery of VAR,
       especially when less obvious pens are given and we spend hours
       watching borderline decisions about offside. This could not have
       been more clear cut.
       I await an explanation from the PGMOL - whoops, me sees a flying
       pig!
       Full marks to Foden, a rarity among his peers, in trying to keep
       on his feet and not go down; honesty didn’t do him any good
       sadly but morally he cannot be faulted. There are others who are
       serial offenders - and we all know who they are - who would have
       gone down whether touched or not to con the ref. In fact I could
       name a couple who would probably be still flying through the air
       or collapsing in a heap even now!

       Not discussing something that's happened because, "well it's
       happened" is not a good recipe for learning from past mistakes.
