I have just realised: by looking at other people's content, what I have been hearing for the last almost 4 days has been mostly a hot steaming pile of garbage; this entire situation should have been relatively easy to clean up or clear up; originally I was under the impression that jocelyn for position as West Ham sent over the ball from their corner and then what happened with Arsenal's goalkeeper David Raya: was Phase 1 ; I come to realise it wasn't and yes I am now fully aware of the fouls from the Arsenal players on the West Ham players, I was aware of this beforehand, but I now have a clearer picture of the order of this incident/scenario.

The real Phase 1: is a foul on West Ham's Pablo by Leandro Trossard, so for all intents and purposes until this foul is cleared up it is almost irrelevant if Pablo has fouled the Arsenal goalkeeper. Where it is Trossard that begins this whole sequence of events by facing away from the football and has no intention of actually playing football: it is his intentional interference that causes the first foul, which then causes Pablo to foul/interfere with Raya and then you have Declan Rice fouling a West Ham player: I will say this one more time I know there broadly speaking more going on in this situation then I have put here.

But in my defence; I have put everything that we need to focus on in this scenario in the right political order and this is so important for the next section of this content and you will understand why I have simplified it.

So as another content creator pointed out; why in the VAR check discussion did they made reference to questionable tactics/behaviour by Trossard, but spend more time focusing on the foul on the Arsenal goalkeeper? And the follow-up question is and this is crucial; why didn't they not show the right order of events and just go to the foul on the goalkeeper consequently the referee Chris Kavanagh could be blasé about the Arsenal players because he doesn't actually see the full picture and in the right order; so how is he meant to make an informed decision, without seeing how things really went in the right order? Which based on this perspective, now makes him look as if he was hanged out to dry by his colleagues, don't get me wrong there is enough blame to go around here, but let's just say if I was him I would be taking off these colleagues from my Christmas card list that is for 100% certainty; which is now opening VAR to negligence really, because if we were to spend what two seconds thinking about it; the referendum question is meant to make a decision based on all and I will say that again ALL the information available to him or her or person at that time, but when he doesn't have all the information given to him which you should have then I feel quite comfortable suggesting it is negligence.

Because what they should have been discussing is firstly is it a penalty? Or do we allow the goal? And based on this conversation we say yes or no and then we move on to the following phases of play such as the foul on the Arsenal goalkeeper, discussion yes or no and move on.

As I said when I first started covering the story; they have made a right pig's ear of this entire situation, the more I find out about it, the more I just don't like how things are going down; when you have this level of incompetence over who could potentially win the premiership and who could be relegated; especially when you could be champions in Arsenal have been doing similar tactics on scoring goals may be double figures of attempts of using this method and far often than not getting away with it this entire season.

So hopefully there is an ongoing enquiry into how they are going to proceed for the rest of the season and what ruling has to be made, because regardless if Arsenal are champions or not throughout the rest of time, I will not see this Arsenal team for this season as champions, because like I said they deserve a massive asterix against this; as this is possibly the worst premiership season in premiership history ever and incidentally just for the record again my football team is not even in the premiership, but I do like my football and I will be saying this again/calling for it again VAR without question and 110% certainty needs to go before the beginning of next season, because a will tell you one last thing VAR is a detriment to football, because it has stolen enjoyment from the game and this is coming from somebody that some time ago his team was in league one, going through those dark days was so much more enjoyable than having VAR. 

I have seen him use in one way or another the world corruption how this whole entire situation has played out, with this ruling not being in effect for roughly somewhere between 18 months to 2 years, Arsenal scoring so many goals using this method and now a similar situation happening up in Scotland with Motherwell vs./and Celtic where in a nutshell Celtic won due to an award of a penalty 3-2 on Wednesday 13/05/2026: when it wasn't: VAR needs to go for sure: it is failing at its purpose, so why are we allowing it to be used in our world of football; when I hope people are starting to realise that, before VAR there was some kind of weird comfort in it just being down to human error to why a decision was made, but nowadays it is down somewhere between corruption and/laziness in either way VAR can be thrown in the nearest landfill site.
