In February, especially after dealing with the game Manchester United, Everton “Obviously the referees don’t want to get involved in anything,” said boss David Moyes.
It’s definitely a two-way street. Administrators and players are responsible for their own behavior and tactics.
So what can the Premier League do about it? He promised to “give greater recognition to transparent measures.”
But has the World Cup created unrealistic expectations?
BBC Sport understands that Premier League referees do not follow the same hard-line approach.
If goals from Germany and Spain counted in the Premier League, they still wouldn’t have been denied.
Fitness is vital to the English game but there is still a feeling among officials that what happened last season cannot continue.
“There’s a line between where you can manage a little bit better.” Chelsea defender Cesar Azpilicueta told BBC One.
“Especially in England you have more contact – you’re used to it. There’s something in between where everyone can feel a bit of joy.”
Fans are always skeptical of any new initiative at the start of a season, with many thinking it will last a few weeks before slipping away.
Colina believes that the only way to achieve results is to be strict – to outline the situation to the coaches and be ready to enforce the rules when necessary.
But with one VAR penalty awarded for retention – Jared Gillett in the Premier League when Croatia faced Portugal – was this really put to the test?
World Cup coaches have heeded Colina’s warning and are scaling back their tactics. Or are they just not paying the same attention as club managers?
Premier League referees cannot award many penalties in the first few weeks of the season as this is unsustainable.
The counter-argument changes behavior – but the media narrative is unlikely to work with judges.
In a 104-game tournament where most teams play just four games, Colina’s approach is safe.
It’s a very different proposition for a full domestic campaign.
Coaches are always looking for marginal gains – ways to push the boundaries to score a critical goal. and adjusting their routines from week to week.
Premier League referees must find a way to get restarts while respecting the physical nature of the game.
It is not easy.
