       It is interesting that most of the higher profile VAR errors
       seem to come from the supposedly specialist VARs. Apart from
       yesterday, Mason’s error in the Newcastle v Crystal Palace
       match, awarding a Palace free kick and disallowing a goal after
       Willock was pushed in the penalty are a sticks in the mind.
       Swarbrick has only been back a few weeks and has already missed
       one of the clearest red cards (Fabinho v Brighton) and one of
       the clearest penalty awards (Soucek yesterday) that you’ll ever
       see. Dean missed the Cucurella hair pull early this season.  If
       these are the specialists, we have a real problem.

       Please stop with the "it cost us 2 points". You were lucky not
       to concede 3 before then. So give it up please.

       Yes it did cost them two points. Doesn’t matter that they where
       lucky not to concede 3 but they didn’t. Then they defended a set
       piece well but referee incompetence suggested otherwise.

       Wasn't there still some time left in the game to play?

       What is Arteta more angry about do you think
       1) not winning one of 5 challenges in the area
       2) a VAR error that wouldn't have happened if AFC had managed to
       challenge for the ball.
       [/quote]
       The VAR error clearly as Webb and the PGMOL have come out and
       apologised saying it was human error and the goal shouldn’t of
       stood, although nothing will happen Mason will be taken off VAR
       duties for a week, and everything will be back to normal, the
       result won’t change and they ain’t going to award us the 3
       points or reply the match from that precise moment, and if it
       costs us the league come end of season then there is going to be
       uproar

       I dont remember any  matches being completed after 74 mins, when
       a goal has been scored or disallowed.
       An unintentional error occurred, unfortunately you have to
       accept it and move on.
       Some go your way, some dont, its called football.

       Where was this hysteria or emergency meetings when VAR didn't
       review the brawl at the United v Palace game properly recently
       and failed to advise that Ayew be sent off (or even review the
       Casemiro incident correctly) or when Fabinho wasn't sent off for
       Liverpool against Brighton?

       I know the PL referees meet regularly throughout the season
       anyway so it might just be there were meetings scheduled for
       soon after some of those incidents you mention.
       They are obviously embarrassing mistakes as offsides like this
       should fall under the matter of fact category and it's important
       improvements are made. But in a sense I'm a bit less concerned
       about things like this as it seems unlikely they'd be repeated
       any time soon, compared to things like missing red cards for SFP
       or not awarding penalties for handball which seem more likely to
       recur in the next week or two.
       In terms of the role of the AVAR, I think it is the VAR who
       generally does the offside process as with everything else - I
       think this might be done differently by FIFA at World Cup level.
       Without knowing the exact process, I think it is difficult to
       put blame on the AVAR. It might be the Hawkeye operators could
       have helped more but I don't think much is known about them
       publicly.
       On a wider note, I think it would be sensible to take Brooks off
       the Merseyside derby tonight and Arsenal V Man City on
       Wednesday, simply because the headlines will be pretty bad if
       he's left on them and a perceived VAR error occurs. He's had
       plenty of good VAR appointments so hopefully he can recover
       fairly quickly.

       Issue surely isn’t that there are ‘Ex-refs’ as VAR?? If
       anything, I’d say that’s the long-term optimum - experienced
       refs, used to having VAR themselves, who become dedicated VARs
       and focus solely on that role. Better than having active refs
       doing a game Saturday and then bombing off to do VAR duty the
       next day (rather than rest & recovery).

       Maybe the lesson to take from the Brentford goal incident is for
       VAR to always prioritise the check for offside first because if
       the player is offside, nothing else matters. If he's not
       offside, then check to see if he's committed a foul. Had this
       been the protocol, the offside would have been detected and the
       "goal" wouldn't have stood.

       I thought VAR was checking an offside initially but one that
       came earlier in the build-up? Dale Johnson suggests Mason
       thought he had committed an offside offence but they weren't
       able to plot the lines for that one so had to go with the
       on-field call.
       But perhaps the second offside would have been easier/quicker to
       judge!
