Liverpool and Everton have reportedly been told by referees that they will look to create an action plan to “change and improve” VAR for next season.
The use of the Video Assistant Referee has been widely controversial for the past couple of years that it’s been in use in England.
Both Liverpool and Everton have been on the receiving end of several controversial decisions, with pretty much every other Premier League club in the same situation.
According to a report in The Times, the latest Premier League shareholders meeting saw referee chiefs inform every top flight club that they will look to make changes to the way VAR is used next season.
The report states that the action plan will mainly focus on “improving the consistency of decision-making on subjective calls, such as fouls in the penalty area and red cards for serious foul play, as well as the interpretation of marginal offsides”.
These changes, the report states, will be passed on to match officials at coaching and training sessions this summer prior to the start of next season.
It has also been reported that the Premier League will approach the government over allowing a limited number of away fans for the final two rounds of fixtures this season.
With the current government roadmap out of lockdown, the final two rounds of matches should allow up to 10,000 fans to attend, and the Premier League hope that the authorities will allow away supporters to be in attendance.
