Am I black and white tinted or were there at least 2 Everton players encroaching as Cav 'took' his penalty.
Why wasn't the handball shout from BDR investigated.
With the fine, ridiculous margins VAR use, judging from the TV footage why wasn't Calvert-Lewin's  hand adjudged to be offside as it clearly was....or are we still open to subjective judgements made remotely rather than from on the pitch.

Totally agree,
Last 10 mins ref did anything possible to help
us not scoring .Blatant cheating by Tom Davies.
Cheap fouls ,wasting time and no one booked.
Have the rules suddenly changed for off side and hand ball.

While I thought if his hand was offside it would have been incredibly harsh and it gives us something to moan about when it given against us in another match. Everton did no more than we would have done in the same position although Calvert- Lewis did get a number if soft fouls.  What really puzzled me was the booking for Robinson.  Yes it was a foul but not malicious and was deep in the Everton half, no way a booking.

Agree about the handball,
Everton did no more than we would have done except we would not have been given those fouls.
Also we would have bookings and they would have had 7 minute injury time.

I'm glad their goal wasn't ruled offside. If that's what football is becoming (and already has become) then I don't want any part of it, winning or losing. Of course a decision like that will go against us this season, but thats just what VAR is.
