'Clear & obvious we need VAR discussion!' - Milner 'falling out of love' with football due to technology

James Milner has called for a "serious discussion" about the use of VAR in the Premier League after the technology played a major role in Brighton's equaliser on Saturday.

Liverpool looked set to claim all three points against the home side until deep in second-half stoppage time.

Andy Robertson appeared to catch Brighton forward Danny Welbeck inside the box when he attempted a clearance and the referee checked the footage and subsequently awarded a spot kick. Pascal Gross then converted to ensure the sides shared the points in a 1-1 draw.

Reds boss Jurgen Klopp said after the game that "the decisions were right", but midfielder Jordan Henderson voiced his anger and said even Welbeck admitted that the referee made the wrong call.
