He was in control for a second. JJ had every right to attack it. They've deliberately made it look like he's in more control than he is.

This is the philosophical issue around VAR, isn’t it? That on a still image, he has ‘control’, but there’s no way he is in possession of that ball when JJ strikes it. 
 

That Kasper feigns an injury to make it seem more convincing just adds extra stench.

What was VAR looking for on the first goal?

Second goal should have counted as the millisecond that goalie was touching the ball for does not constitute being in control of the ball.

Once again VAR being used for incorrect purpose as not clear and obvious mistake.

Hopefully that will spur us on as overall we have been average at best.

hmmm

it says 'hand' not his **** fingertips

one of those where common sense surely needs to be implemented, unforunately PL refs are simply devoid of it

Well if that statement of the law from that tweet is correct, “control” just means having the ball between the hand and a surface. So it’s the right decision. 

No it isn't. Because the hand should be more than 2 fingers. Villa are getting **** by the wording of the law not the intention. It's the same as it was vs City last year. They are absolutely changing the word g after this to be more clear.
