@hallenbeck @football Doesn't this data show that referee are in fact giving too many incorrect decisions against Liverpool and only with VAR are they being corrected?
I don't think that many Liverpool fans think there's a conspiracy against them but there are unconscious biases at play and Paul Tompkins work shows that very clearly.

@hallenbeck @football Well, it's skewed because 1) this is only VAR overturns; and 2) the combination of the high-press and high line they play critically depends on the razor thin margin of leveraging the offside line defensively. #LFC had the highest disallowed goals against with 6, which I'll stipulate means VAR has aided them -- but it also means the officials got it wrong on the field, more than any other team. I don't think there is a conspiracy, but I do think the treatment isn't equal.

but some of these are stupid, he most obvious example is the First Arsenal goal disallowed at OT, Odegaard fouls Eriksen the ref is looking straight at it but doesn't whistle, VAR pulls it back and it's given as a foul because it obviously was, then they say VAR shouldn't have intervened because it wasn't a clear and obvious error.

Every fanbase thinks the refs are out to get them. Liverpool also have a historical reason to distrust authority in the country with the Hillsborough coverage and accusations as well as general Thatcherism

And this is just tracking whether VAR decisions (e.g. corrective reviews) either led to a goal that was disallowed or vice versa, etc..

It isn't tracking issues like what occurred against Spurs or the Rodri handball incident.

It's also a single season of statistics.

The point of this anyway? We trying to act like it wasn't a colossal mistake last weekend?

Am I missing something here? I count the total number of net beneficial decisions to be 22, and total number of net disadvantageous decisions to be 21.

Shouldn’t both totals be the same number? When one team gets a beneficial decision, it can only happen at the expense of another team (i.e. it’s a zero-sum game).

I could understand the discrepancy if this analysis were counting games in other competitions, but this is only counting Premier games so I would expect equal totals.

@hallenbeck @football Does this only show that more initially incorrect decisions were made against Brentford, Fulham and Liverpool than against Leeds, Brighton and Man City?

In any case, VAR overturns are such infrequent events that you can't really draw statistically significant conclusions from them.
