Although he declares himself ” a friend of new technology” he says: “It has to be low profile. The game needs to flow. It is hard for the officials now.”
Speaking to the Evening Standard he said: “Take the Champions League match involving Wolfsburg and Real Madrid on Wednesday. Early in the match, Gareth Bale went down and the penalty appeal was turned down. Shortly afterwards, Wolfsburg were awarded a penalty for a foul on Andre Schurrle.
The first time I watched both incidents, I said: “No penalty for Real Madrid, yes for Wolfsburg.” When I watched it again, I thought, definitely a penalty for Bale but not for Schurrle!
Everything should be done to ease the situation for referees but how you do it, I don’t know.”
