While I agree the standard of referee is shocking I don't think we have the resources to allow any referee to judge many of the contentious incidents. VAR can only be as good as the facilities allow. We don't have anywhere near enough camera angles to adjudge whether a player is a toe or a dip of the shoulder offside . The same as when there are bodies flying all over the shop in a penalty area. We either reduce the use or get rid.
As you are well aware VAR isn't the issue it's the idiots who are employed to operate it that is. If we had decent, independent officials we wouldn't have considered VAR in the first place.
