Objectively:
1) The penalty
Maupay clearly fouling the defender. Would be really miffed if I was the oppo.
2) First disallowed goal
In strictest terms, a passable verdict. Sanchez eye line was impeded
3) Second disallowed goal
In very strictest terms. Very, very. No, actually, it was a goal.
It would be interesting to see how it turned out if the on field verdicts had been different.
I hope we haven't used a few matches luck up here.

Our penalty, agree. Their two, we'll, if you're going to put an offside man right in front of the goalie, you get what's coming to you!

The penalty wasn't 50/50. Maupay had a hold of him and as he moved towards the ball tightened his grip. He was struggling to jump hence the flaying arm. Astonishing decision.

Last season's Luck rolling up at AMEX this afternoon, huffing and puffing "Am I late?"
Both offsides correct all day long. If I was a Leicester fan I’d be asking what the hell Rogers and/or Barnes were thinking with such a stupid/suicidal tactic. Once you can say was a mistake…twice?
Before VAR, that game would have finished 1-3 0r 2-3 Leicester.
But I guess I will take it on the chin
Before VAR the game would have finished the same as all VAR decisions confirmed the on field decisions.

I remember last year when Burn was adjudged to be offside for a similar situation.

Three incorrect decisions, top six bias evident here
The linesman was man of the match. He called the offsides and they weren’t obvious errors so had to stand despite the fact that Sanchez wouldn’t have saved either.
Very very lucky win today. Collecting the credit from last season at last.

It was clearly a tactic and seen as such by the linesman, before Lineker wades in he should ask what exactly they were doing there?

The goals were correctly disallowed. Leicester didn’t play within the laws of the game. How is that luck?

No it wouldn’t as the ref gave the decisions and VAR agreed with him
And/or the balls were in swinging?
I possibly thought VAR would overrule some of these decisions, as the commentary I was watching thought the same, but I am happy all the same.
Barnes is an idiot. Why would you stand right in front of the keeper when you’ve already had one goal ruled out from doing it. We cleared the box quickly knowing he was just standing there offside and luckily the assistant referee was sharp enough to notice it.

Is clear an obvious error how it works for offside VAR, thought it was always objective?
Edit: although a player in front of the GK would have to be a subjective decision?
