Mikel Arteta admits VAR issues have to be discussed by Premier League clubs

Mikel Arteta has spoken about VAR as Premier League clubs prepare to vote on whether it should stay or be scrapped.

VAR was introduced to the game to improve decision-making and reduce contentious calls.

Before the technology was implemented, there were numerous controversial decisions, and fans believed that introducing VAR would enhance the accuracy of officiating.

However, that hasn’t been the case, as human errors continue to affect decision-making even with the technology.

Several high-profile mistakes have occurred, prompting Wolves to call for the technology to be scrapped.

Premier League clubs will vote on the matter at the end of the season, and Arteta has shared his views on the technology.

The Arsenal gaffer said to AS:

“It is clear that we have to talk.

“There’s still not a lot of clarity, so when this is all over, we’ll sit down and talk about the rules again. From there, let’s see how much they listen to us, I still don’t have it very clear.”

Just Arsenal Opinion

Most teams have been at both ends of VAR decisions, and some have had more good sides than bad.

However, we can understand why Wolves want it scrapped, and most fans would not care if it goes unless the human errors are fixed.
