There have been some refereeing decisions this season that didn't sit well with some top managers. From Liverpool vs. Spurs game to Newcastle United vs. Arsenal fc match. A lot of clubs are becoming dissatisfied with how the officiating has been. What do you think should be fixed?
 
Getting the nuances of the Laws of the Game right when making a decision.
For instance, the ball strikes a defender in the box; his arms are in a natural position but the ball deflects away off of them.

Is that a handball?
Prior to VAR, odds are the answer's no. Unfortunately, VAR can't get the nuances down and often rules too strictly.
