One thing to be said for VAR - it's fantastic for referee job creation! Does it really take two of them to make decisions as mind boggling as they do?!Before long there'll be more refs than players!
That's what should happen, take it out of the hands of officials to decide what gets reviewed. That cheating c*** wouldn't have been able to prevent our goal at Palace, then.I'd maybe go for one per half and an extra one for extra time then an extra one for penalties, rather than three each, but it would seem a step in the right direction.

Maybe one and if it was a correct appeal they still have it.There is usually only one big incident.per match.
I think that might be a better system to use you know like they do in Tennis where you get 2 challenges per set.Instead of VAR checking every single decision, the manager gets maybe 1 challenge per half to use VAR. Every other decision is what the referee in the middle says like the good old days. If the manager uses VAR wrongly to have an offside decision checked, then 5 minutes later the ref misses a stonewall penalty but nothing can be done because the 1 VAR has already been used on an offside then tough.
Fully implement VAR correctly or fully fuck it off. There is no way this half arsed version should have been introduced to the game. The match referees and VAR officials need to be fully trained, all aspects of the technology used (ie the pitch side screens), and clear rules that state when it should be used. The rules of the game also need to be updated to remove so many of the grey areas that remain to be subjective (if it’s subjective then the final call has to be with the ref using the pitch side screen).
Managers dont know the rules?
Just have the VAR person, inform the referee when he's possibly missed something.Referee HAS to go and double check. Referee watches replay, makes final decision.It is nowhere near as hard as they're making it look.
