    VAR is not the problem, the implementation is.

    There is no reason not to take notice of how other sports implement VAR and impose some similar types of limitations on how the system works. Fewer calls from teams to doublecheck decisions for one.

    Not just that, take some learnings from what's happening in the games. Reassess offside. It's clearly damaging the game. That's not VARs fault, a strict eagle eyed referee would have a similar impact.

    The response feels like a low brow "let's blame the easiest most dumbest thing possible", but that's about what I expect from the average football fan, so y'all keep throwing fishcakes into a void. The previous was worse.
