Annoying finish. We should've had several goals; Jones and Defoe were brilliant. Goldson and Katic switch off, and we've conceded. Hint of offside? I couldn't see it. And, we should have had a penalty. Beaton is useless.

I take it back...

Bugger. Scored out of nothing.

I think Goldson and Katic have been immaculate.

Jones sets up Defoe again, but doesn't get any bend on it.

Lovely play from Defoe, Ojo and Aribo. Wrong player (Aribo) struck it, hitting the side-netting. Defoe has another chance for the hat-trick, but the 'keeper saves.

Jones brought down IN THE BOX, but it's a free-kick. Completely twists his defender -- two of them -- inside out. Wonderful.

Ojo is more central, but Jones is hugging the left touchline. Jones looks in the mood.

What a free-kick from Tavernier! Just tipped over the bar.

Ojo taken out; really hard, dangerous tackle. No yellow. This is ridiculous. edit: did get booked; eventually...

Hanlon just did the same thing that Katic got booked for; nothing.

Katic now booked; for nothing. There are going to be several reds today. Beaton: Donkey.

Jones makes it; great one-two, runs at the defence, slips in Ojo with a through ball, before Ojo cuts it across for Defoe at the near post.

What. A. Goal.

Beaton's started well: yellow to Ojo, for nothing.

I missed it, but it's 1-0 Rangers! Defoe tapping it in after Ojo's long-range strike (may have been a free-kick).

I think it'll be far more unlikely for them to go with their prejudices, simply because they cannot deny what's being shown in black and white. There will still be an element of subjectivity for some decisions, so incompetency will continue. It's more for the objective, black-and-white decisions what will start being corrected, that makes me favour VAR. Just think of the number of offside goals we'd have scored last year.

The Leaderboard? It's based on the number of 'reactions' that your posts receive. Most pay no attention. Oh--do you mean the 'youth team', 'first team squad' etc. rank, for posters? It's based on the number of posts. I have no idea what you need for each rank, though.

Burnley also surprised me, beating Southampton. I actually think they've had two 'blip' seasons; their European place the season before last was too high for them, but their flirtation with relegation last season was too low.

It's fair to say Brighton surprised you all. I think Potter's a good coach. They've also made some astute acquisitions. However, I too, did not expect them to beat Watford 0-3.

It's a "farce" to wait to get the correct decision? I'd rather wait. I think they said, out of 270 or 370 goals (can't recall which) last season, VAR rescinded 6.

VAR is a great idea. It's implementation has still be be perfected.

I was surprised Liverpool didn't sign anyone. However, Salah and Firmino look better, and they have Oxlade-Chamberlain and Gomez back. I would also expect a better season from Keita. Origi, also, looks like he can play a supporting role.

I thought Liverpool were poor; clinical, yes -- mainly due to Norwich's woeful defending --, but they were poor defensively. I thought Norwich played well, going forward, but their defending was terrible. As Jamie Carragher said, they'll get a hiding playing against the top teams, but i think they've got enough to beat the lower sides.
