Following on from Saturday's trial in the 3pm PL matches,
apparently there were some VAR trials at St James' Park
yesterday, with amateur teams being given the chance to play on
the pitch with SG officials taking the games and the system in
operation.

Has VAR changed any decision in the League Cup yet this season?

A bit unfair on the clubs that get eliminated. Let’s hope that
Liverpool PSG or Napoli are KO’d by a dodgy decision!

Knee jerk reaction to Viktor's terrible decision!! It should
have been brought in at the start - his AAR was useless on that
occasion!! Do you think AAR's will be phased out or still be
used?

When VAR comes in, the AAR's will have to go. They will become
the VAR's, so whether they get any better is debatable. :o

It seems that the use of VAR in England will more commonly
involve the referee simply accepting the information from the
VAR rather than going to the screen as we saw at the World Cup.
I know this has raised debate on here previously.
Personally I generally prefer the process of the referee going
to the monitor, partly because it is more standardised across
the world. I also think it helps preserve the referee's
authority if they are the one making the decision and prevents
cases of a referee making a decision they wouldn't actually have
given with the benefit of replays, whilst also making it clearer
to the crowd/viewers who then know to expect the decision to be
changed rather than a yellow card suddenly becoming a red card
as happened at Palace today for instance. I can understand the
arguments for not incorporating this element however.
I still think the end objective has to be to mic the officials
up so everyone can hear what is being discussed to help fill the
time waiting for the decision.
I presume UEFA will follow a policy more closely related to that
which we saw in the World Cup when VAR is introduced in the
Champions League next month.
