It's nothing new that the VAR in the Bundesliga has often been criticized. However, few people express their frustration with the new technology as openly as Bremen's head coach Ole Werner. If it were up to him, he would even like to completely reverse the introduction of the VAR, as reported by 'Bild': "I think I wouldn't need all that. That's my very personal opinion. I wouldn't need VAR, no explanation, and I wouldn't need it on the scoreboard either."

He also doesn't think much of displaying corrected scenes on the video screens: "Is there an idea behind it, other than causing turmoil in the stands? I find it very difficult to imagine that it will lead to enlightenment."
