He was interfering with the defender? Stopped Thiaw from being able to block the shot.
That's a good point. He's behind both of them so presumably he's onside. From what I remember you need to be in front of the last player (normally a goalie) and behind the second last.Amazing how many people don’t realise (including ITV commentary) that you need two people to play you onside
Clear and obvious it was notHe was interfering with the defender? Stopped Thiaw from being able to block the shot.
Clearly and obviously preventing him from blocking it? I don't think so
He was pushing Thiaw like an attacker would be pushing the wall of a defence before a free kick. He's impeded him and prevented him from clearing it and he's offside. Interfering with play, not sure what the issue is.Clearly and obviously preventing him from blocking it? I don't think so
Well, he looks ahead of keeper but behind the defender to me.That's a good point. He's behind both of them so presumably he's onside.
He's a solid 10cm or so ahead of the keeper and therefore offside. This really wasn't a particularly close call once it's determined he interferedAnd even if so, he was what, half an elbow offside? Ridiculous
He’ll probably save it for Saturday.Amorim probably popping open some fine bubbly watching this.

BlasphemyWoltemade is shite
Probably could've done a better job at convincing him to come in the summer. Or pushed to prioritize him over Cunha and/or Mbeumo (but instead we wanted 10s and not wingers)Amorim probably popping open some fine bubbly watching this.
Because we are run by a bunch of morons. Watching City makes me sad as they remind me of how good we used to be (without being a fake oil club).As a full back, both offensively and defensively, Lewis Hall looks so much better than Diogo Dalot.
How are we stuck with such a poor player as a starter for the best part of half a decade?
Another Eddie Howe masterclass.

I don't think either of them were getting near it and I wouldn't call what Haaland was doing against the laws or the game in any case. It's a poor decision imo.
As usual Pep is conducting interviews of every opposing player when he wins
He does it all time. He could be tapping up opposition players in broad daylight for all anyone knows.As usual Pep is conducting interviews of every opposing player when he wins
You might be right but is this what VAR was brought in for?An offside positioned Haaland prevented a Newcastle player from having any chance whatsoever to block a header towards goal. Seems like a texbook case of interfering with play.

5 minutes to identify a miniscule offside, that was not visible to the human eye and that not one single person playing or watching even spotted or appealed for.
VAR is just a load of shite, it's killing the game.
