MANCHESTER, England (Reuters) - Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola declared the VAR video review system a 'big mess' on Sunday after a weekend which saw a series of controversial decisions from the system.

"Every weekend is a big mess. In other games, it was a big mess. Hopefully next season, it can do better," said Guardiola after City's 2-0 win over Sheffield United on Sunday. Moments after the incident, both sets of supporters expressed their opposition to VAR in a loud, united chant, while United fans also adopted the 'It's not football any more' anthem that has become a familiar refrain at various games.

Asked about the City fans joining in with the visitors in expressing strong opposition to VAR, Wilder said he was not surprised. "Where there's so much debate on every goal, it will be analysed yet again. I just don't think it's been refined enough to make a difference."
