Arsenal would be TOP of the Premier League if VAR didn’t exist as full table is revealed

Arsenal would be at the top of the most important table if VAR did not exist.

Despite their 5-1 Bonnnissen from Manchester City, Mikel Arteta's side remains six points behind Liverpool, who have a match in hand.

But if the original decisions in the Gunners' games were not destroyed by the Stockley Park Var Booth, Arsenal would have had six points, with Liverpool a point worse off.

And that would have seen the Emirates side a point of the Anfield outfit.

Arsenal has seen only five decisions changed after Var -intervention in their 24 Prem games so far.

Only one of them – when Kai Havertz's injury time in the 4-2 victory over Leicester was initially wrongly marked in the 4-2 victory, went to their favor.

The first of the others saw William Saliba's yellow card for a “last man” error on Bournemouth striker Evanilson upgraded -although Arsenal was the second best game because they eventually lost 2-0.

But the other three decisions – although well corrected, the Gunners denied three victories.

Havertz thought he had placed his side in the first half of the 1-1 draw in Chelsea, only for the technology to get rid of the strike.

Subsequently, an offside call against Gabriel Martinelli in the Bukayo Saka's 88th minutes 'winner' in Fulham.

And the VAR booth that spotted that Mikel Merino's late shot beyond Aston Villa keeper Emi Martinez from Havertz's forearm had been bent, last month's collision meant 2-2.

The second goal of Liverpool in the 2-2 draw with Manchester United came with VAR that saw a handball attack by Matthijs de Ligt, which took them a point of the game.

Although none of those decisions was wrong, it does show the potential impact of VAR.

Without VAR, Bournemouth would be fourth, three places and five points better off – with PGMOL who made their “winner” against Newcastle at the start of the season, was wrongly rejected for handball by Dango Ouattara.

Newcastle has had ten VAR changes in their favor, with only two against, while the Technology Man Utd has cost four points.
