This.Use goalline technology by all means but sod all this VAR nonsense.
Even if we do end up with the correct decision to the letter of the law it's taking a hell of a lot of enjoyment away from the game for me.
Although on this occasion the decisions benefited England, that game was totally ruined by VAR.
It's bloody ridiculous. If it ever gets to our level and we are all cheering a winning goal in a Wembley play off final only for it to be snatched away because of an offside toe.
Top strikers who play on the shoulder of the last man are going to be hesitant now aren't they when previously they might get away with a marginal offside
Let the game and all its human mistakes (players and refs) flow.
I thought that when VAR was first introduced it was going to be used intelligently, and only brought into play where clear breaches of the rules had been missed by the ref - i.e. for the most part rolling with the ref's decisions unless there was a blatant offside/handball/red card offence etc. that had been missed.
The situation now, where the flow of the game is completely disrupted and ref's decisions are overturned due to a toe being offside, is simply intolerable. FIFA have to rethink this.
