Why is everyone 'up in arms' at armpit-gate? This is VAR working - it's the rules that need changing. The offside explanation (any part of the body that can play the ball) includes the shoulder area so I honestly don't know what the fuss is about; it's like VAR is too accurate! Just change the rule to head or boot if needs be
Realistically though it isn't accurate enough to make those super tight calls.
Given the frame rate of the cameras and the speed of the players there can be a 10cm+ difference depending which frame you choose for a player kicking the ball.
