I can’t imagine anyone prefers this mess to the one we had before VAR.
We can’t celebrate goals properly. The flow of the game is constantly interrupted. The determination of calls based on millimeters and body parts is endless.
What did we get in return?
The arguments about bad calls by humans is now replaced by arguments about bad calls by humans and technology.
I’ll take the game I grew up on rather than this shambles.
Human error is just that, human. Now we have human error amplified by technology. As I responded to someone else, I much prefer the brilliant game I grew up with to this Frankenstein monster.
Over time, bad calls even out. That’s just the laws of probability. I’m sure there are legions of other Bundesliga fans who feel hard done by calls that went in Bayern’s favor, right?
This mess hasn’t really improved anything but has cost us so much.
