Arsenal title winner Paul Merson insists Liverpool were rescued by VAR for their victory at Crystal Palace.
The Eagles thought they had taken the lead in the first half when Tomkins headed in from a set-piece routine.
However, after several moments checking the goal, VAR official Chris Kavanagh adjudged Jordan Ayew to have pushed Dejan Lovren at the near post and chalked off the strike.
Liverpool went on to win a dramatic match 2-1 at Selhurst Park and Merson said, "I don't know what they are looking at. Someone has gone over so they may be looking at a foul. There is a shove but I don't know.
"I'd still give it. He has disallowed it and that's ridiculous. He is nowhere near the ball. Shall we give Liverpool the league now?"
However, Palace boss Roy Hodgson later stated: I don't want to get involved in those things.
The only point I'll make is there has been such a hoohaa about Arsenal's supposed third goal against us that should have been given.
The foul at the near post in that instance where James McCarthy was completely bundled over, that was a much clearer and worse foul which luckily I think VAR picked up.
I don't think this (Tomkins) was a mistake by VAR either. There was a foul at the near post, Jordan did unfortunately push Lovren and VAR disallowed the goal."
