LONDON : After yet another round of Premier League fixtures in which VAR played an unwitting lead role, Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Postecoglou perhaps hit the nail on the head after a riotous 4-1 home defeat against Chelsea on Monday.

Disgraceful and embarrassing was Arteta's opinion, but Postecoglou, while clearly not a fan of the technology, offered a more measured response after a tumultuous evening in north London which ended in his first Premier League defeat. "But I know that I'm in the wilderness with that. I'm on my own. In my 26 years I was always prepared to accept the referee's decisions, good, bad or otherwise, and I've had some shockers in my career let me tell you.

But he is worried about the time it took to make them and the erosion of the referee's power. Meanwhile, fans inside the stadium, without seeing monitors, are left in the dark about what is happening in front of them.
