Love it or loathe it, VAR looks set to play a key role within football for the foreseeable future.
The technology system has been heavily criticised since its introduction ahead of the 2019/20 Premier League season, with a number of baffling decisions being made in respect of red cards, offsides, handballs and more. Although it could be argued slight improvements have been made year-on-year as regards how the system is used, there can be no disputing there is plenty of work to still be done.
Liverpool's defeat by Arsenal on Sunday afternoon drew further attention to this point after it emerged a possible offside against Bukayo Saka in the Gunners' opening goal could not be sufficiently checked due to a technical error. News of this development has, naturally, left many supporters questioning how such scenarios could possibly play out in the most high-profile league in the world, though change could soon be on the way to put to an end to constant confusions.
