Not read the last 20 pages but only just seen this.

VAR: Premier League clubs to vote on whether to scrap video assistant referees

Premier League clubs will vote on whether to scrap video assistant referees (VAR) from next season at their annual general meeting next month.

www.bbc.co.uk

Doubt it will happen

Wolves making a few voices but it will no doubt get voted down

Might force improvements but var will stay.

Presumably it goes off the group that look at decisions a few days after and take their judgement? If you look at how many decisions are made each game, most will be right. We generally do only end up talking about one issue in a game, it's rarely more than that.

They do get some big ones wrong still, decisions also take way too long. I do think they gave got better at not micro managing games any more. That got better through the season.

Yes but the onfield ref would make most of them decisions!

I don’t belive VAR get 96% of decisions they adjudicate on correct.

What we have seen through the season is tackles that were red card through the first 2 months are no longer given a red card now - there was a spate where about 5/6 players got a red when getting the ball a bit bit then get the player on the ankle etc - then same tackle in the last 3 months - nothing.

Watching the wrong man .
Cassimero gets the ball.
It’s Amrabat they should be watching.
96% correct my backside!

Amrabat should be off here.
Blatant kick after about 15 mins but no card then the pen

Disgusting decision. VAR hiding behind the 'high threshhold' excuse when it was a clear penalty. The sooner it's scrapped the better IMO.

Other countries seem to be able to use VAR correctly. I’m not against the use of it per se, but I am against the inept way in which the PL seem to do things.

Are they doing it on purpose? Wouldn’t be the 1st time that an organisation messes up a new system to show it doesn’t work so they can go back to do it their way.

Apologies, it isn't just var getting 96% right, it's the collective, decisions made correctly by all of the officials during a match. On field ref plus var.

Diallo is so much better than Antony it's shocking ETH has waited until the end of the season to give him playing time.

The time VAR takes, they should get 100% of factual decisions right

Currently watching the Utd, Chelsea and Celtic games.
Is there a goalkeeper that worse than Onana with his distribution in the prem league.

I'm not sure how impressive 96% actually is when you consider the number of routine decisions given in every match such as throw ins, goal kicks, corners etc that are clear even to a blind man (or woman).

 

[Tashyboy]

James a silly silly boy

I agree, but he’s been injured most of the season. (Knee)

Well it's better than the 82% of correct decisions pre VAR

Don't forget, var can't correct everything. That isn't in its remit. It can only correct certain things.

Exactly if VAR is only involved in 5/6 decisions how many are they getting wrong it’s more than 4%.

Have you picked the next manager to complain about once Klopps gone

Not yet buddy,a bit too emotional about Sunday tbh.
Just hope we get to see Klopp standing liking a “predator” watch the opposition players warm up one last time

& the fist pumps after,regardless of the result & bottling the title hopes at Everton

No think it was more the UTD game myself.

Everton nail in coffin?
Or Utd knock you out of cup & league aspirations?
What’s worse?
