Is VAR ruining the Premier League?
In such a simple game, VAR has made the sport more complicated. This took a lot of the fun out of the game and made it more tedious to watch when VAR is involved. As such, hosts Kartik Krishnaiyer and Christopher Harris explain how VAR is ruining the Premier League and what the solution is, while comparing it to how other leagues handle VAR. In attempting to add spectacle to the Premier League, it has had the opposite effect. The talking point, of course, is the Newcastle-Arsenal match, as well as Fulham v Man United. The podcast was recorded before the Tottenham-Chelsea match where VAR controversies were raging.
Besides VAR, we discuss Matt Turner’s dismissal by Nottingham Forest and what it means for USMNT players in Europe, ESPN2coverage of the USL League One final, who would have been a better USWNT coach – Emma Hayes or Sarina Wiegman, Lionel Messi news, the joys of watching the FA Cup 1st round, feedback on Soccer coverage from NBC and CBS, both USWNT and USMNT games are available on-demand on Max, along with many other topics.
