He was complaining about it on the touchline and VAR pour over it looking to appease him because the RS had the temerity of having a bad VAR decision against them last match
Var did not intervene...ref give it handball even if he did not have a clue. Obviously var should have intervene, but then this is anfield right.

Its getting ludicrous. BergenReds now 0-2 …only surprise is it wasnt disallowed!
I think VAR should be there for the ref to use when he’s not sure .
I think every penalty given should result in the ref going to the monitor ( no audio or input from VAR ) and he gets to take a look at it and tells them what angle etc and they do not provide an opinion .
He can then confirm his original decision or change it if he thinks he is wrong .
This takes away the subconscious bias of when he is told to go to the monitor as that suggests that a mistake may have been made.
By making it a part of giving a pen … it’s removed that.
Red cards or second yellows should also be an automatic monitor check by the infield ref .
That way the refs run the game and use it for when their view is obstructed or if they aren’t 100% sure.
Failing that …. They should just have the same 1-2 refs in the VAR room every week.
That way it’s the same person and should improve the consistency at least of how it’s being used . If it’s the same person all the time or a smaller group of people …. Even though it’s subjective …. It’s the same thought process every week as it’s the same person
But my preference is for the ref to use the pitch side monitor as HE feels HE needs it . Thats way he can make decisions on the pitch and then go and review it if he’s got any doubt and then confirm or change his original call.
Obviously this won’t help with “offside lines” but it would be a huge step in the right direction for the other stuff
