Alan Shearer nailed it on motd talking about var yesterday
Not the system it's the people
Wish Webb could start now and not have to wait till post world cup.
After reading the article the athletic did last year about Clattenburgs book and the detail he goes into on how much who your friends are vs who is actually a good ref goes into selections there, there needs to be massive changes in leadership, and webb has been out of the game long enough and has the background as police that I can't imagine him being a shrinking violet when making decisions on appointments, removals etc.
Also think he will help with recruitment, I know they brought in Aussie refs starting in 2019, but theres no reason the FA shouldn't be poaching refs from the top leagues in Europe
