PGMOL later apologized and blamed the decision on human error, but it was no consolation as Liverpool suffered their only defeat of the first half of the Premier League season. But that doesn’t mean Klopp wants to ditch VAR anytime soon. Instead, the German called for better use when asked about the latest English Premier League controversy during his pre-match press conference against Newcastle United.””What do you mean they have to be brave?” God, get rid of VAR? No, better use of VAR is the right thing to do.
And I think it can be done.”But not everyone agrees with the Liverpool manager, with each new controversial incident sparking backlash from VAR and the referees. As the debate continues over the place of VAR in English football, the ECHO spoke to three former Manchester United heroes from three generations, who have all slammed the use of VAR in English football. “What happened before?” Steve McMahon (Liverpool 1985-1991): What happened in the previous situation?I don’t remember the (mistakes) of my career because you never analyzed them. The referee’s decision was the referee’s decision and you followed suit.They are currently analyzing everything that happens in the game. When someone scores a goal, they look three or four periods into the game and say, “It was broken 30 seconds ago.”I understand there is a lot of money in football and like Liverpool vs Tottenham one decision can make a big difference.
However, sending a message is a subjective decision. offside. The goal line is either a goal or not a goal. Offside or offside, goal or no goal. All other decisions are subjective.Whether it’s three people in a bar or in a VAR room, two people can say one decision and one person can say another decision. So we still don’t quite understand.Even with VAR, a clear decision cannot be made. Everyone in world football can see it.”I’m glad they were wrong. “Neil Ruddock (Liverpool 1993-1998): I don’t agree with the VAR system. I can’t stand the VAR system. I am responsible for Target Technology. If the ball crosses the line, yes. Change it to word of mouth advertising. Are you purposeful or purposeless? go! Whether you have a goal or not, it’s over. If the referee is not clear, is it a goal or not? bread. completed.I’m glad the people at Stockley Park were wrong when they clicked. That’s what football players do.
When footballers are under pressure, tired and exhausted, we make mistakes. We swear and shout at the referees. Maybe they will write it in a book and now I can understand the pressure. “He made the judges even worse!
Liverpool’s competition is only controversial on the festival stage and is a discussion about Harvey Elliot Desky’s design, and Harvey Elliotte is not fined most Martin Odegaard Handball.
But such incidents are only the tip of the iceberg, with outrage over the use of technology in the Premier League growing every week. Of course, Jurgen Klopp’s men are not the only team to have faced VAR this season, but they are the team that have suffered the most injustice. Luis Diaz scored a perfectly valid goal against Tottenham Hotspur that was disallowed for offside, but the VAR team actually ruled the Colombian out.
I don’t like this game (VAR and technology). Because this match is open to speculation and opinion. This is subjective. But you can’t go wrong with field line and goal line techniques.We will not go back to basics because nothing will change and VAR will unfortunately continue to exist. I think refereeing is very difficult because it is very difficult to make a wrong decision.It’s very difficult because then you go to VAR and overturn the decision.
We’ve been using VAR and the technology for a few years and we don’t like it. It didn’t improve the game I love, the game we all love. I thought VAR was brought in for two decisions. There are too many subjective decisions in VAR. There are so many moments
