Just found out Clos Gomez is in charge of VAR in Spain. No wonder the VAR always tends to be unjust towards us

Have to admit that I am seriously at a loss how you guys regard this decision unjust towards you. Bizarre stuff. This is not down to interpretation

It's not only this and the penalties against LaReal that they failed to give.

Under Lope it felt like we were being screwed by VAR many games in a row. I felt alittle sorry for hin tbh, marginal offside calls like that of Betis were called back and cancelled for us earlier in the season. Accidental handballs were brought back and judged as penalties unlike those that have been ignored for the likes of Atleti and Valencia.

If there's a team that have felt the brunt of VAR it's RM and I am not saying that just because of the last 2 games. What they look for under a top of the shelf microscope for us they give benefit of doubts for others

What is this? The very picture Carvajal posts himself shows him playing the striker on?
What the hell is going on here? Is your bias literally skewing your vision?

Don't actually feel unjust at all but Madrid has been at the end of some (just some, not plenty) poor officiating more often than not this season. Still doesn't excuse the club for ending a match with Vini-Cristo-Diaz though.

Hala's bias is very much akin to your bias when talking about Bayern lol. Dani clearly plays him onside in those pictures.

the red line is where Canales's shoulder falls and the green Carvajal's. No bias just truth imo

That happens when the ref doesn't call a clear penalty and they don't even check it with var. people get suspicious.

The decision to not show replays after using VAR is quite baffling, to be honest. There should be a legal requirement attached to it. I don't know why they have the freedom to only show replays when they deem it necessary. It's not as if the decision was so clear that showing replays wasn't warranted. If it was, VAR likely wouldn't have been necessary.

Well, Sevilla's title challenge has unraveled nicely. Good luck to Atleti, may they actually do more (which they have been doing anyway) to give Barcelona some level of competition.

Lucky draw 1-1 for Athletic versus Villarreal but at least they are well out of the relegation zone for now.

Shame the only Aragonese team in La Liga are halfway out the Premiera.

4 points separate 8th place from 17th place crazy, any of those teams can get relegated or join Europa League

Dembele is just insane

Dembele > Messi

damn.

Dembelé is seriously starting to piss me off. Every time I tune in on Barcelona, dude has already a goal to his name.

Slow down kid, go back to being a maverick. Be late to training and clash with Valverde. I really don't like this version of you.

DemPelé> Mbappé. DemPelé playing in proper league not in farmer league.

He's so quick it doesn't even look real when he sprints lmaooo

What a player. Golden boy.

Is CL a farmer league? Because Mbappe is and has destroyed that too... not to mention the WC.

Dembele's big issues: Consistent effort and eyesight... sometimes, I wonder if he's color blind with his passing.

Great talent though.

any clip of what he'd done?

i know exactly how you feel, i'm beginning to feel the exact same way about dembele, i was loving it when it seemed everyone was calling him out, i couldn't enjoy it too much because my own team is busy steadying the ship

I wouldn't call it colour blind lol. He just makes weird (bad) decisions when it comes to passing. That suppose to get better as a player gets more experience/gets older. Suppose to...

I had to look really hard and deep to see the representative of Real Madrid there. And that list doesn't even include the goals that have been scored today. Dembélé, the dude who has been benched countless times, has officially overtaken our dearly beloved topscorer.

What a time to be alive

Forget Dembele, fking Iniaki has the same amount of goals. Andre fking Silva has more. What is this thing called life? How Sway?

Goal was noting special. But he was consistent threat down the right wing. passing the opponents with tremendous pace and dribbling. A joy to watch. His passing and decision making still suspect. But improving rapidly.

Here is the goal

There's no one single clip, he's just ballin' all day long
