Premier League table WITHOUT VAR decisions revealed with new league leaders and Chelsea still in deep trouble

THE top of the Premier League would look very different if VAR wasn’t used this season.

VAR has been as contentious as ever since the start of the new campaign and Saturday’s horror show between Liverpool and Spurs has left fans asking if we would be better off without it.

But not everyone would be so keen on how the league table would look if the tech wasn’t in place as the alternative standings have been revealed.

The biggest news comes at the top of the table as Man City would see their spot in first place handed to Tottenham.

Ange Postecoglou’s men have been superb since since the Aussie came in and if it wasn’t for VAR’s intervention they would be looking down on all 19 of their competitors.

Bryan Mbuemo’s penalty in Tottenham’s 2-2 draw with Brentford would never have been given, turning the Lilywhite’s one point into three.

In fact it’s the Bees who should be the most grateful for VAR as stripping it away would see them winless so far this season.

Thomas Frank’s side would have lost twice and drawn all five of their other games, dropping them down one spot in the standings from 13th to 14th.

Down in the relegation zone Burnley would be two points better off and would have secured their first win of the campaign.

Their three points wouldn’t be enough to lift them out of the drop zone just yet, but the change in points could have come in handy later on in the season.

Chelsea’s shocking start to the season, which in real terms sees them in 15th place with just one win, would be no different.

Mauricio Pochettino’s side would still be stuck on just five points and winless since their victory over Luton in August.

Erik ten Hag can’t look at VAR as an excuse for Manchester United’s worst points tally since 1989 either.

The Red Devils would still be in 10th place with just nine points and their shocking four losses already this season.

Liverpool were left furious after the PGMOL had to issue an apology for not allowing Luis Diaz’s goal to stand in their 2-1 loss to Spurs at the weekend.

But with the on-field decision being offside, they would still be left disappointed if VAR wasn’t in place.
