The Leicester City manager took a robust approach to the VAR judgment at Crystal Palace and the discussions the club has since had with the Premier League about the procedure.
He insisted that the Premier League and PGMOL had not sent an apology to the club. The reason why, as far as the PGMOL are concerned, is that there has been no mistake, nor a cover-up. For the referees body, the image they have published, with the line drawn from James Justin’s outstretched toe, is correct.
For Steve Cooper, there is no debate. He bullishly asserted that the VAR decision to rule Jean-Philippe Mateta onside was incorrect and that Leicester City have proven that to the Premier League.
He believes the club have been “wronged” and suggested the Premier League have engaged in a cover-up of sorts in not releasing the true footage to the public. For the City boss, these are the facts.
