Premier League table without VAR - where Man City, Man Utd, Liverpool, Spurs & Arsenal sit in final standings
VAR has angered and delighted fans throughout last season but how would the final Premier League table look without the technology’s interference?
The video assistant referees have been the topic of much debate since their debut in the English top flight ahead of the 2019-20 campaign.
On 120 occasions across the 380 Premier League games this season VAR has intervened, with each decision made by the technology leading to the referee changing their initial decision after being recommended to look at the monitor.
There has still been plenty of discussions surrounding the use of VAR but after inspecting each decision it has got more calls right than it has got wrong.
With regard to the most decisions overturned in a team’s favour, West Ham (10), Arsenal (9), Brentford (9), Manchester City (8) and Newcastle United (8) benefitted most from Stockley Park’s involvement.
On the other hand, Norwich (11), Everton (9), Newcastle (9), Burnley (8), Leicester City (8), Manchester United (8), had the most decisions overturned against them over the course of the campaign.
In relation to goals disallowed by the technology and on-field decisions overturned leading to goals, such as penalties and offsides, we have looked at how the table would look after 38 games without the involvement of the video assistant referee...
