No !
All or nothing

I hope that the players are coached to cope with it.
Part of me thinks all or nothing but then it clearly isn't going to be used for the foreseeable at most grounds, similar to goal line tech.
If the idea is it helps eliminate some errors, then a cup final with it just sitting there unused while Chelsea win 2-1 with Azpilicueta a bus length offside would be a bit weird.
Liverpool score a 93rd min goal to equalise against us and its disallowed by VAR, yea I'm all for it :hehe:
Is it really? For some reason I thought we'd had itQuote:

Dreadful all or nothing in a single tournament I say
Weren't the Jacks on the wrong end of a couple of bad decisions against Man City a couple of years ago? If they'd had VAR then Man City's goals wouldnt have stood I think?
I’m not sure if this is a bad attempt at humour or not, but If not I’m fascinated as to how it would find its way into the coaching manual 😀Quote:

That wouldn't be much different to normal. Players always play to the whistle, as the ref can overrule the linesman.Quote:

We have seen VAR in action many times and without any stats on the subject, I'd say that the decisions favour the "better" teams.
The referee will give what he sees, usually favouring Man Us, Liverpools Chelseas or Citehs of this world and if it's not "clear and obvious" then the refs decision stands.
Villa's disallowed goal last night was also an example where VAR can look for any misdemeanor, obstructing or fouling an opponent, one that goes on regularly without penalty.
I doubt in the game City v Liverpool such a decision would swing the result in our favour but on the whole, and in reply to the OP, I say don't have it at all if the facility isn't available at all grounds.
Judging by the attempts of the VAR officials last night to search out reasons to disallow the Villa goal until they eventually found one, I feel we have no chance.
