VAR in prem league is there mainly to say its a goal or not, a penalty or not and it's a red card or not. Lots of penalty's are not being called because of "no clear and obvious mistake" by referee, even though they are penalty's.

VAR is certainly experiencing teething problems, hopefully they will be solved over the course of the season/by next season.

Honestly, the only way this is going to work, is if they bring in independent people to look after VAR.

Refereeing is so bad in England because the referees are so pigheaded and you can’t have a conversation about them without having to acknowledge they’re doing a good job, even though they’re not.

Who would have expected the referees would be less pigheaded when publicly reviewing their mates’ work?
