What a fecking ridiculous rule. He only had to play the ball because Salah was behind him, offside. Even when they’re shi, their luck never ends
FA Cup Third Round
- Thread starter PoTMS
- Start date
that has to be offside? the defender doesn't make that header if salah isnt there. bonkers.
Is there no VAR? That was miles offside 
Offside interpretation is a joke for stuff like that. Why would the CB just let the ball sail over his head and gamble that Salah is offside?!
Stupid rule, he had to try and clear because Salah was offside and in behind him!
These offsides today just go to show how lazy the officials have become and how they just rely on VAR for those decisions these days.
Linesmen are pointless now

Such a stupid rule.
How is that not offside?
It's from the moment the ball is passed no? FFS

Stupid rule.
Touched by wolves defender so it’s not offside?
Looking forward to it happening again next week and being offside.

Oh look, they benefit from ridiculous offside rules. He's only scored because he was already offside
That is fecking stupid.
There is VAR in this game
What bollox.
Tried to intercept, not play the ball.

Nonsense rule, it’s long overdue they get rid of it
Wtf are the commentators on about? It's still offside, he's offside when the ball was played.
Leicester game all over again
So many things seem to help them out
Is that deliberate stuff a new rule?
I know by the rules that isn't offside but it's such a shit rule.
Basic defenders get punished for attempting to defend against someone that's offside.
They should change that rule.

Thought they didn't bother with VAR in this round? As it's unfair having it in one game but not in another?
That rule might be even dafter than the handball not being handball if you play it to your mate rule
Offside rules are garbage. Every week there is some bullshit call.
His strike rate and shot accuracy is what was always the focus.Oh, now we're looking at stats? You know the xG stuff....
feck the rules now, nothing makes any sense.
Yeah Adam Virgo is on, wasn't sure who the other one was
Everton had a goal disallowed on VAR last night
Absolute bollocks that goal. The defender wouldn’t have tried to play it if Salah wasn’t behind him. How is he to know he was offside? He’s just trying to defend. Salah was offside period. Stupid stupid rule.
I must have lost my mind because I did not realise that was part of the offside rule.
He only heads it because the guy behind him is offside?

Another broken rule, along with handball.
I don’t care whether it’s Liverpool or United that benefit, it’s a shocking rule. I don’t even think any Liverpool fans would argue with that.

I dispair sometimes with the rules or interpretation of them.
That’s offside all day
Oh yeah
that seems like last week. Wow, it is weird it's allowed for some games when it's unavailable for others though.
I thought “interfering with play” was a thing.
Bloke in the pub just told me it’s only if two PL teams are playing, which seems… unfair??
But also, this is “bloke in the pub” facts
For those pondering about VAR in the FA Cup.
For rounds 3-5 it will only be available for games which have a premier league club at home. Only for the Quarters and onwards will be be implemented in every match.

That offside law is such nonsense.
Everton's goal yesterday, Varane had to clear the ball with a player standing offside (Maupay I think). But play becomes "Different Phase of attack", Coady is offside as the next ball is played forward but "not active" as it doesn't go to him and yet he ends up tapping it in.

This commentary is mental.
I don’t know why more wasn’t made of them scoring an obviously bullshit goal.
I think it's only used at PL grounds.
