The problem is not VAR itself, it's the people behind it

Its the same thing though I don't get why people say this. VAR is the whole system and the whole system doesn't work thats the point.

Are you talking about our striker who has 3 goals in 16 games.. how on earth will we manage without that kind of input.. while iagree that the red card was ridiculous I don't agree that we will miss DCL as much as you seem to think.. He has had 1 good spell in his career when Ancholotti was here.. he's a bang average striker at best.. get Beto in has more work about him.

He’s crucial to the way we play, and our record without him is horrendous, regardless of his current form.

Literally anything else only affects us in that match, and losing that match arguably helps us in the PL, but a replay and losing your striker for 2 PL fixtures. It’s the PL’s dream scenario and their pigs at Pigmol delivered again.

As others have already said the club need to be asking for the audio to be released, need to be appealing the decision, need to be kicking up a fuss in the media, it's time to stop being an easy target

A lot of games recently are being remembered for what’s happened in stockley park, rather than on the pitch.

For all those saying cancel VAR, this is what officiating for the big clubs looks like without it. You’ll never see an offside given against Salah or Fernandes ever again without VAR. The technology is no problem, it’s the corrupt refs using it to fix games which is the issue.

John Terry diving to save a goal with his hands going ignored

Steven Gerrard getting parties for ‘intent to foul’ even when no contact

United having goals disallowed against them when the ball is 3 yards over the line

City scoring against us from a ball about 5 yards out of play

This is the world without VAR and Pigmol would be desperate to go back to it, desperate.

I’m talking games this season in general.
The main talking points in loads of matches seems to be VAR and its incompetence.

Incompetence it what sense, its the perfect entertainment package, TV viewing figures bare testament, VAR is working great as TV companies are paying vast amounts for this particular managed sport entertainment, more than ever before.

Hodgson was pathetic in his interview too. Had an absolute meltdown when he had a player sent off v Liverpool but tonight’s was ‘just the way the modern game is’.

And therein lies the problem!! We all want that small gain, we have to stop this. Hodgson should be calling that out so should Dyche and everyone else! The fact that nobody does is the reason why the game is in its condition now!!

I said this the other day, what will happen now is this weekend there will be a tackle and it will be measured against DCL’s(by fans) “that’s a straight red” look at Everton’s the other night that’s well worse”

This isn’t how we should be playing this, we will just get deeper and deeper into tribal mentality and the game will be gone! It almost is

Video isn't a problem, it's the referees being assisted by it.

Out of VAR, only the V bit works. So, yeah, VAR as a whole doesn't work and for as long as opinion is valued in football, it never will.

I personally think its a failed experiment and we should just go back to football with 3 subs max and no outside officiating influence.

Its not going anywhere its changed and not for the better. But Im in the minority as English football has never been so popular.
