Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp believes that VAR is not the problem
โI donโt think VAR is the problem but the way they use it is the problem,โ Klopp said via The Athletic. โYou cannot change the people obviously that is clear so I would say I would vote for scrapping VAR.โ
Initially, Klopp guaranteed that Liverpool as a club, will not vote against VAR. Itโs not unlikely that in the future there will be talks about how to fix the situation regarding VAR within the Premier Leagueโs contestants.
โI donโt think theyโre (Liverpool) voting against VAR, I think theyโll vote about how it gets used, because thatโs definitely not right,โ he said.
โIn the way they do it, I would vote against it, because these people are not able to use it properly.โ
Liverpool will have their final game of the season playing against Wolverhampton at Anfield. Whatever the result will be, The Reds will stay at the third position as they lead Aston Villa by 11 points.
