Happinesstan Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 You all seem to be assuming that I mean it can be exploited by the team winning. It can't be exploited by either team, only the officials on the pitch in conjunction with those in front of the screen can bring the use of VARS. Not sure what your point is really in regard to delaying the game, for the gain of whatever team that might be. Same reason players on the leading side will feign injury, to interrupt the flow and reduce the pressure. You've never seen a game where the losing side are hammering the oppositon, but then they have a long injury and the game just fizzles out? As for who can abuse it, I'm pretty sure those paying for the service will be able to do whatever they like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But like I say, the powers that be would never do such a thing. How? You keep saying this, but you also keep not saying how they would use VAR to do this. If you're thinking they'll use VAR to stop the game to review incidents in added time when a big team is leading, the only thing that will do is review the incident VAR wants to review. Compared to using subs to waste time, the time VAR stops the game gets added on. If it doesn't, there'll be an uproar. The added time at the WC showed that VAR actually helped getting a more realistic amount of added time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happinesstan Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 It's really fucking simple. Currently, if a team is winning by a single goal, but looking likely to concede because the opposition are dominating ("It's only a matter of time, surely"), then feigning injury is a commonly applied tactic, with the intention of taking the sting out of the game. But as I have said The FA/SkY would not entertain the idea of using anything to afford the top teams an advantage, so it doesn't matter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AsprillasShinPad Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 It's really f***ing simple. Currently, if a team is winning by a single goal, but looking likely to concede because the opposition are dominating ("It's only a matter of time, surely"), then feigning injury is a commonly applied tactic, with the intention of taking the sting out of the game. But as I have said The FA/SkY would not entertain the idea of using anything to afford the top teams an advantage, so it doesn't matter. This sort of change would need to be implemented at FIFA level. I've been saying for years that the rules of the game need updating. Almost every other team sport reviews it's rules to keep pace with tactical developments, so why not football? If I were King FIFA, my new rules would include: 1) 30 mins per half with clock stopped every time play stops - would completely eliminate time wasting overnight. 2) Scrap offsides completely - goalhanging (the reason offsides were brought in) was an archaic issue and won't be an issue in the modern game due to the need for all players to be involved in all phases of the game. Would also open up more space on the pitch and get rid of contentious offside decisions completely. 3) Get rid of the penalty box. Take a free kick from the point of foul instead - currently a penalty kick is way too valuable and leads to players preferring to take a tumble rather than try and shoot. Also means that defending as an art is dying. 4) Goal line tech in all professional games. 5) TV Officials in all televised games. Rather than VAR, have an official to give advice on all requested decisions. 6) Red card for simulation. Simulation includes exaggerating contact - would encourage players to play the game and combined with TV officials, should all but eliminate diving. However, the game flat refuses to evolve, and the fact that goal line technology took an age to bring in and VAR is somehow being implemented badly gives me no hope of change. As a result, games will be one long diving fest, with timewasting, simulation and dodgy penalties continuing to win the day. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 If you have 3 or 4 subs who can sub on or off at any time then a player going down injured isn't an issue as they just get subbed off for a fit player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
