Yes it has changed things. We've been top of the league ever since that City effort v Spurs was correctly changed. In 3 other games, VAR changing wrong decisions has influenced the final result. It's not used as much as I expected, but when it is, it is clearly making a difference to who wins games and who doesn't.
Changing some things and not others isnt going to make the game fair.
It's funny they go down to the nth degree whe it comes to offsides, yet all of a sudden the referees are allowed a huge grey area when it comes to penalty shouts/red cards.
They are protecting each others arses rather than giving the correct decisions. It's a load of bollocks until they have the backbone to over rule each other for blatantly incorrect calls.
The referees initial decision is having too great an impact on proceedings.
They should be going to the monitor to judge for themselves. The sooner referees get used to changing their decisions, the better for the game. At the moment they are clinging on to for dear life to keep the refs initial call no matter what the replays show.
All in all a load of bollocks.
