Premier League table without VAR: Where Man City, Man Utd, Liverpool & Arsenal would sit

Manchester City have the chance to respond to their weekend Premier League defeats as they return to Champions League action in midweek.

City tasted defeat in the league for the first time this term with a 2-1 loss at Wolves.

There was plenty of VAR controversy elsewhere in the division with Liverpool at the heart of it.

The PGMOL admitted that a Liverpool goal was incorrectly ruled out in a key clash at Tottenham Hotspur.

A 2-1 Spurs win in that fixture meant City kept their place at the top of the table despite seeing their six-game winning run ended.

Following the latest involvements from VAR we have looked at how the Premier League table might look without the use of the technology.

Factoring in VAR decisions that led to goals being disallowed or awarded by the technology, including via penalties, here’s how the table might look as things stand…
