Darren England is the victim of spectacularly bad timing as a new book was released today featuring a Q&A with the VAR at the centre of the Liverpool controversy about what makes a good referee.<\/p>\n
In the book, called The Football School Encyclopaedia, England answers a series of questions. When asked for the hardest part of the job, he says: ‘Making sure you do not make a mistake that impacts the outcome of the match.. This is the worst thing for us.’<\/p>\n
When quizzed on how he copes with the pressure, he adds: ‘I try to prepare the same way for every match which is to stay calm and relaxed. During the match I remain very focused and just take each decision I need to make, one at a time! I do not worry about past decisions in the game as it is all about the next decision.’<\/p>\n
At the bottom of the page is an illustration of England being interviewed and on what skills are needed to be a referee, he suggests being ‘resilient, as lots of people question your ability’ and that ‘communication is a key skill’.<\/p>\n
The timing is awkward given how the PGMOL released the audio of his mistake in which he and his video assistant Dan Cook – in a serious lapse of concentration and communication – failed to allow Luis Diaz’s opener to stand for Liverpool at Tottenham on Saturday. England also discusses how he enjoys life as an official, saying: ‘I like the fact that every game is different and you are working under high pressure, making decisions in a matter of seconds.’<\/p>\n

Darren England, who is the video assistant referee responsible for Saturday’s controversial VAR blunder, has given advice on what makes a good official in a new book released today<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
In the new book ‘The Football School Encyclopaedia’, which was released on Thursday morning, England gives advice in a Q&A interview (right) called: ‘Having a word with the ref’<\/p>\n

Luiz Diaz thought he had put Liverpool ahead against Tottenham – but England failed to overrule the on-field decision of offside, sparking huge controversy after the Reds’ 2-1 defeat\u00a0<\/p>\n
