VAR (PL introduction 2019)

Its biggest issue and hurdle will be when its used against us for the first time and we lose out because of it.

This place will implode lol.

On a serious note it requires integrity and honesty from the officials to work and im sorry but i have zero faith in them all in that respect.

has to be applied consistently and transparently, which it won't be.

That would be my only problem but I feel it’s the right time for this to be implemented..

Well to be fair some are already expecting it because they already suspect the FA are corrupt, I will at least wait and see if they start using this and we are STILL getting big calls incorrectly called against us... how will they excuse it when they see the same camera angles we do? It would actually settle it once and for all that there is corruption in the game if it doesn't get any better or even gets worse for me.

I'm all for it. My concerns have been shown tonight on referees 'Interpretation' of how to use it.

The only way this will ever work is if they use an appeal system similar to cricket. Two appeals for both teams to use as they please. If it's a failed appeal they lose an appeal, if it's successful they keep the appeal and get the original decision overturned.

Also I'd make it so the appeal must be used within 5 seconds of the decision being made

Not sure about the managers (Conte) drawing squares to the fourth official. Can't he just ask him? Clown

Was listening to the guardian football weekly podcast today and the point was made that aggressive appealing from managers will result in them being sent to the stands

Me neither.

Feel a lot more comfortable we’re able to see the incidents as the officials on a monitor. Yes there will be times when people disagree even after the video review - but overall, especially penalty appeals, vast majority will be the correct call as opposed to the impossible task the ref has now when a player goes down cheating and 30+ thousand are screaming for a Pen.
