"The Premier League's Key Match Incidents panel declared another four errors by referees in its latest report, taking the total to 54. At the same stage last season there had been 44 wrong or missed VAR interventions."
"Professional Game Match Officials (PGMO) says the general trend is positive, with 70 mistakes after 30 games of the 2023-24 campaign. However, there have already been as many VAR errors this season (18) as in the whole of the last campaign."
"In the round of matches between 14 and 16 March, the KMI Panel determined that three penalties should have been awarded, but the VAR was correct not to step in."
"The KMI Panel is an independent, five-person body which assesses all incidents from each round of matches. There have been fewer VAR interventions this season, down from 89 to 83."
