Wrong and contentious decision only based on their algorithm. Not just goals. Like for example Chambers wrongly disallowed goal against Palace.
However, we're not just removing goals here to get the amended results. That is far too simplistic. We've developed an algorithm that takes into account many factors, such as the state of the game at that point, form, performance and relative strength, then we've got a whole new set of results based on probability of outcome.

Is there a comparable table for last season adjusted for bad refereeing decisions? What conclusions are we supposed to draw from this?
VAR is the problem. We are actually doing alright!

Then the description is ridiculous, isn't it? For it to be the PL table without VAR they also need to remove the wrong ref decisions that VAR corrected.
I seen a table recently of for and against VAR decisions and we were close to the bottom. Wolves and Sheff Utd were the worst sufferers. United and Liverpool the biggest beneficiaries at the top. It had no bias as to correct or not.
This table looks to have similar conclusions. VAR has definitely benefited some clubs more than others. It certainly hasn't made the game any fairer.
Unless we know whether those decisions were right or not that kind of league table doesn't really say much.
No data is perfect. Even if we only counted wrong decisions you'd still be excluding times when we thought VAR should have been used.
No doubt Liverpool are getting a lot of calls in their favour though compared to the chasers. And no doubt we've had more against us than for us.
Yeah, but with not taking whether decisions are right or wrong into consideration it certainly doesn't say anything about if VAR makes it fairer or not. It says that the table is different without VAR, but for all we know the table without VAR is more unfair and totally wrong while the actual one is fair. The only thing that table says is that VAR has meant something.
