\u201cNobody in Europe is happy with VAR and what worries me is that there is going to be a situation where football starts to annoy the fans. If you stop for five minutes for a decision, I don\u2019t know how they are going to behave.<\/p>\n
\u201cGoal-line technology is the best but, after that, it is about how the referee perceives things. The emotion is not going to be there, the feelings and the tension. Maybe technically it is a handball but we know very well when it is intentional and only the referee and the players around can decide that. On the video, you cannot perceive that.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Pochettino previously criticised VAR\u00a0following heavy intervention from the technology\u00a0in Spurs’\u00a0FA Cup fifth round replay at Rochdale last season.<\/p>\n
The top flight side came out 6-1 winners on that occasion, but Pochettino said after that if supporters in Spain and Italy were impatient with VAR\u00a0then Premier League fans\u00a0would not cope with it’s introduction.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Recalling those comments, Pochettino added on Wednesday: \u201cThat\u2019s because the game in England is more dynamic. If you compare to Spain or Italy, the ball is in play more in England. Fans in this country are used to play, transition, corner, goal, boom. It is more instant.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn the Rochdale replay there was an incident in the first half that took forever to decide. There were 10,000 less fans after half-time. That situation was difficult to accept and I\u2019m not sure if you get a benefit. Those who are pro\u2011VAR say the technology will help but football is also about mistakes \u2013 players, managers and referees.<\/p>\n
\u201cI am telling the people responsible that we need information [on why and when VAR should be used] because if we don\u2019t know, it is going to be a big problem.\u201d<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
