Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Postecoglou expressed frustration over the lengthy VAR protocol that annulled a potential equalizer by Pape Sarr during their 1-0 loss to Chelsea. He argued that decisions are becoming overly reliant on technology, prompting concerns that match officiating may eventually be entirely governed by artificial intelligence. Postecoglou pointed out the procedural inefficiencies of the VAR system, noting that lengthy reviews do not enhance the game's quality and suggested that fans would prefer the original referee's calls to be maintained.
It's going to be refereed by AI soon... As referees aren't refereeing... VAR was called in for clear and obvious errors. How long did it take tonight? Six minutes.
I don't see how it's benefiting our game. I don't think anyone would have complained tonight if we just went with referees' decisions.
