He follows that up with the fact there were 30 odd red cards last season compared to 25 so far this season. He's making the bigger point that the recent increase in VAR intervention and upturn in dismissals is leading to shite uneven matches far too regularly.

That does also gloss over the fact that we have seen new rule changes too.

We've seen that dissent and time-wasting and now punished a lot more harshly, which has also contributed to it and those aren't down to VAR interventions.

We had far, far too few red cards last season.

Why is he blaming VAR instead of the players for committing more red card offenses?
