Excellent appointments for England and Brooks getting games at the Emirates and Old Trafford respectively!

I wonder whether Langford’s impromptu display at Stamford Bridge has pushed any claim he has for SG1? Leeds v Derby is a good appointment at the weekend followed by Liverpool in the Cup

A really good mix of appointments with officials from all 3 groups. Good luck to all of them (even if sides put out changed teams it is still good experience)

Great spread of appointments for a lot of officials. Especially the likes of Jarred Gillett and John Busby. Also nice to see some of the SG2 AR's with PL teams, James Mainwaring etc.

Why is Gillett wearing his FIFA badge in England?

Jarred is still listed as being one of Australia's FIFA Referees on the FIFA website.

What round is VAR used in this competition i thought it used at all premier league grounds

I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that it will be used in both legs of the semis and the Final.
