It is though. Refs are getting lazier, and more irresponsible.VAR is ruining the game!!??!?"?"?"?!!! I cant celebrate anymore !!!£££Gobbledeegooooo!!!!!
What kind of positioning is that for a referee in this situation? Too far and the angle was wrong to judge a tackle even if PEH were the one to make,
Mike Dean was thinking about blowing the whistle for a moment there, to stop the play, but chose to let the play continue because he can delegate the task to VAR. However, this process would delay the aid to injured players. Referees need to stop the play so the injured players can get medical team ASAP. There is no substitute for good judgement and competence from the guy with the whistle on the pitch. He is sole decider of how fast treatment would arrive. Divings should be reviewed and punished later.
