The key problem for me is that the initial decision on the field needs to have more weight and there need to be bigger hurdles to overturn it. The vast majority of decisions in football are judgement calls that can go either way and I feel that too many of those are being overturned because the ref leans in another direction after consulting VAR and for me that’s not enough. Unless he’s totally sure the initial decision was wrong that decision needs to stand.

We need better refs. VAR has improved the sport.

VAR became the main point of a lot of post-match discussions to the point that we never had so much complaining about refs. Every single big game has some VAR controversy, and this is just extremely bad.

VAR needs to move to WC’s version of offside (that one simply can’t be disputed, even if it’s 1mm offside it’s easier to swallow than the line garbage) and for ABSOLUTELY CLEAR decisions. If VAR is taking 5 minutes to decide on something then that’s ridiculous.

Or give coaches challenges or whatever. Current model is disgusting and ruining all of football discussions. I’m tired of analysing every single decision that refs make.
