    If the suggestion for an improvement in reffing is to get rid of VAR, then that suggestion is a joke

    We can improve VAR.

    1. have the semi-automated offside tech from the World Cup, this stops VAR used so often when disallowing goals and keeps it to checking for fouls and allows a freer flowing game.

    2. have actual var teams rather than current refs

    3. any decision that they deem should be checked at the monitor should be shown in full: Show the full play in normal speed, then show the full play in slow motion speed if requested

    4. ref teams the same lol, none of this big 6 nonsene. Ref tottenham the same way you ref wolves

    VAR is a wonderful tool. If you’re too stupid to use a tool then you should resign and give the spot to someone who CAN use it.

      It’s funny yo see how many people here are against VAR, all of them with PL flairs. In the Eredivisie, it’s used in a (mostly) competent manner and I don’t think I’ve heard of a single person that wants VAR to be binned yet within Eredivisie context.

    It’s crazy how night and day their opinions are when they’re on sky versus on other networks/personal accs, massive hypocrites

    His anti-red card thing is clearly nonsense

    The reason there are more red cards now then there were in the 80s, which he references with the 1985 FA Cup final, is because there are more fouls that are deemed red card offences, even tackles from 10 years ago which would have been yellows are reds now, it’s nothing to do with VAR and just shows how desperate he is for a point against it

      Have you even been watching the games this week? Rashfords was never a red card but slowed down 10000% it looks terrible and the refs are using that to send people off. It happens every weekend and is ruining the game.

        I didn’t watch united because I was at the emirates so I don’t know the details of the rashford red but reds are now given more often because IFAB seem more challenges and more things a red card and issue stupid guidance that ends up with more things being penalised and less consistency season to season

      He follows that up with the fact there were 30 odd red cards last season compared to 25 so far this season. He’s making the bigger point that the recent increase in VAR intervention and upturn in dismissals is leading to shite uneven matches far too regularly.
