LONDON (Reuters) - England's Premier League has promised to improve and speed up the use of the VAR system following several controversial decisions and widespread criticism from fans and pundits.

The Premier League, using the technology for the first time this season, said in a statement that VAR was discussed at length during a shareholders meeting on Thursday and Mike Riley, its chief referee, accepted that"improvement is required".

Riley told clubs that speed and consistency of decision-making"are priority areas of work and will improve as the officials become more experienced with the technology and protocols". "Ensuring the pace and tempo of Premier League football remains an important focus for clubs," the statement added.
