They seem to be making a hash of it.

Because they stop the clock, so it reduces the pressure on making a quick decision
Re: Is there any point in VAR?
Refs are getting replaced slowly but surely. I can see a future where the pitch is completely mapped by sensors, players linked up monitoring their physical and mental stats. Decisions on everything instant.
Re: Is there any point in VAR?
There's a reasonable chance that we will go down this season whereas with VAR we might have not.

Re: Is there any point in VAR?
When it was being introduced during the latest World Cup the BBC said anything to try to make it popular, but it used to be the three letter answer to whenever an official got a decision wrong and that simply isn't accurate.
VAR - pundits disagree with officials leaving us all confused
VAR - officials process information and still get decisions wrong, sometimes because it's being shown at 10 different angles and in super-slow mode.
VAR - we discover the actual rules of the game and disagree with the rules.
VAR - not everyone is allowed to use it.
It slows the game down, it doesn't end controversy. It might make the game better in the long-run but it's not what was promised during that World Cup in Russia or the lazy talk-show hosts/premier league managers who wanted to complain about bad decisions before that.

In that instance the TMO said no try while the pundits said try, then two days later Clive Woodward rewound further back and claimed Wales had knocked on in the build up. What point do you wind back to? In Leicester home game this season their goal started with officials missing foul nearer their corner flag than our net but do we scroll back that far if goal had been disputed?
If we are going to look at borrowing from wider sports then why not a touchline official on each side? Has that ever been trialed?

Most of the arguments against var recently have been ex-footballers who don't understand the rules.
