My problem with VAR is that it's now getting involved in subjective decisions. These are not linear decisions where it's black or white/on or off/yes or no but ones where the VAR is making a subjective call, just as the referee would be required to make a subjective call in real time. What's the difference, it's still subjective? Someone making a delayed call 200 miles away on a penalty is still a subjective call, it really is not definitive, it just can't be, it's not possible. So just let the referee make the call as we've already done. I'm sorry but the decisions made by VAR were not definitive, I strongly disagree with the decision to disallow Dawson's header. This was not a line call, it was an interpretation of interference- guess what, this is subjective! So how has this improved the previous situation? In my view it hasn't changed anything except allowing the TV pundits to pontificate even more moronically than before
