Sam Allardyce And Rafa Benitez
WEST BROM boss Sam Allardyce believes VAR is becoming a laughing stock after another controversial decision in Monday evening’s 3-0 win against Saints. Like the Red Devils, West Brom were not affected by the decision as Matheus Pereira’s penalty and goals from Matt Phillips and Callum Robinson earned a crucial victory.
Sam Allardyce said: “VAR came to the wrong decision. They got it wrong because of human error.”
Asked if VAR is making the game a bit of a laughing stock after decisions in the past few days, the Baggies boss added
Sam Allardyce added: “I’m afraid so. The reflection on VAR can be done at the end of the season and all parties should have an influential input into how VAR goes forward. That needs to be from the PFA, LMA, Premier League and the FA. There are too many of us not being given an opportunity to express how to make it better.”
