I believe the VARs is rather stealing the joy we have in football claiming to improve the game. The beauty of the game is in the moments, the suspense, the pressure, the frustration, the anger at unfair judgements, then the drink we share after the game; these define football. VARs is here to snatch this joy from us.
Moments of emotions
My first point VARs may indeed make the game more fair, but what becomes of the below?
The controversies, debates, arguments, insults and anger are was gives the game the fun lovers delight in. Football is entertainment not a religious rite, being fair is not what lovers want to see.
Secondly, is VARs is a disadvantage to teams that thrive on high tempo transistion play like Atletico Madrid.
The frequent and long duration interruption caused by the VARs cools the game down and hence such teams may have to work with other tactics.
Lastly, VARs is actually not a technological advancement as it is said. Some video assistants in a room making reviews of events in the game is not actually what we wish to see. If FIFA want to improve the game then robot systems should be designed to differentiate both teams players and can signale when an offside or other fouls are committed, in real time. Yeah, that sounds like a big deal right? that is why I called it a technological improvement. Hence, the game is improved at minimum disadvantage..........but for VARs, I see no future for it in football.
VARs are expected to be used in the FA Cup and League Cup next season and have been used since the commencement of the Confederation Cup. I hope it fails the confederation cup test so it doesn't wreck the most important competition of league football--UEFA!
Thanks for reading, please share your thour thoughts as well. Remember even on Steemit, the fun is sometimes in the arguments. Cheers!
I think they are also trying to kill the game. They are making it too perfect and taking away the identity and history of the game. Rememable incidents which otherqise would not have happened including maradona's god hands which he used his hand in scoring a goal in the world cup ir the recent remakable comeback of fc. Barcelona as agaisnt PSG which left us discussing the incidents for more than weeks. There are so many contriversial moments that makes us love the game even more and they are taking it way. Dam!!

I really don't watch football that much, but I witnessed the use of VAR's in the ongoing Confed's Cup and it was pretty shitty to me. It makes the game too serious and no fun
