'Gabriel didn't know Erling Haaland threw the ball at his head but VAR clowns did'
{by} Dailystar.co.uk

All you can do is laugh in terms of how consistent VAR is when it comes to being inconsistent. Take Erling Haaland, for example.

In the madness that engulfed the end of the thumping clash between Manchester City and Arsenal at the Etihad, Haaland chucked the ball into the back of the head of Arsenal’s Gabriel.


Gabriel and Haaland clashed during Manchester City and Arsenal's 2-2 draw

The Gunners defender, who had pulled his shirt over his face in despair at not winning the game, didn't have a clue who was responsible.

But those clowns operating VAR did, because it was right there on the screens staring back at them. But because the incident was reviewed at the time and no action taken, Haaland will escape retrospective punishment.

The FA have confirmed that because VAR reviewed the incident at the time and no action was taken, Haaland won't be charged with violent conduct. Which also means that, instead of facing a possible ban, Haaland will be allowed to keep playing.

The news will be a huge boost to City boss Pep Guardiola. City face a run of four games in the next 11 days, including trips to Newcastle and SK Slovan Bratislava in the Champions League.

Can't we just scrap VAR altogether? Football felt like a more fluid, natural, spontaneous and enjoyable sport before technology intervened. And if those tasked with operating the system continue to be incapable, what's the point of having it in the first place?
