Jamie Vardy criticised the way VAR has been implemented, after England were denied victory in their friendly against Italy on Tuesday when a penalty was given on review.
Referee Denis Aytekin, a German official who has been using the system all season in the Bundesliga, initially waved away protests as Federico Chiesa tumbled under challenge from several England players.
However, after consulting the VAR he ruled that James Tarkowski had stepped on Chiesa's foot, and therefore gave the penalty which Lorenzo Insigne converted.
That earned Italy a 1-1 draw, but while the decision may ultimately have been correct Vardy, who scored England's goal, believes the way the system is currently being used is unclear and interrupts the flow of the game.
"I think that's the worst thing about it, for the fans too," said Vardy. "You don't know what's going on, and you're just standing there waiting.
"They use it in other sports when they can put it on the big screen so everyone can see what the video ref is looking at.
"It's still down to the referees to get the right decision in the first place. There's pressure on them as well -- they don't want to be going to VAR every time.
Vardy believes that the stop-start nature of any game featuring VAR spoils the enjoyment of it, pointing to an FA Cup game earlier this season when Kelechi Iheanacho scored for Leicester against Fleetwood, was initially flagged offside but that decision was eventually corrected.
"Kelechi scored, it went to VAR and he didn't have a chance to celebrate with his teammates," Vardy said.
VAR will be used at this summer's World Cup, even though it has only so far been used in a handful of countries and is far from perfect. However, Vardy doesn't think the problem is a lack of education to the players.
"I think we've been given as much instruction as we can. It's just one of those things we have to deal with. Other countries have more experience with it in their leagues -- if it's worked for them, so why not for us."
Vardy started Tuesday's game in the absence of Harry Kane, but in a two-man attack along with Raheem Sterling, and he believed the partnership worked well.
"Me and Raheem spoke before the game [about how we were going to play]," Vardy said. "He likes to drop in, and it gives us the opportunity to stretch their defence even more. It creates pockets of space for Raheem and obviously Jesse [Lingard] on the other side."
Of course, when Kane is fit, the Tottenham striker will almost certainly start in the World Cup, but Vardy thinks it's possible the two could play together.
"Who knows? We'll have to wait and see what the gaffer's got planned. It'd be nice to try it out to see if it works. But it gives us other options going into games -- we know we can change at the drop of a hat, and move into a different formation."
