Paul Warne reflects on the possibility of VAR introduction to the Championship post Norwich City defeat.
Despite a 3-2 loss to Norwich City, Paul Warne gleaned encouraging aspects from the game, particularly the unexpected goals contributed by Craig Forsyth and Corey Blackett-Taylor. Forsyth demonstrated his worth in filling Callum Elder’s shoes, while Blackett-Taylor impressed with his first goal for Derby County, potentially earning him more playing time.
Refereeing controversies marred the match, as Derby County felt hard done by following a contentious call that led to Norwich City’s first goal. Warne voiced his opinion on the matter and pondered the need for VAR in the Championship. He acknowledged the game’s evolving complexity but highlighted the subjectivity even with video review. Despite setbacks, Warne emphasized the need to move past unjust decisions and focus on leveraging the team’s strengths, especially in attack.
Looking ahead to their upcoming game against Sunderland, Warne must ensure his team doesn’t dwell on the refereeing errors but instead builds on their promising displays this season and addresses defensive vulnerabilities while capitalizing on their attacking prowess.
