From what I've seen everytime a new offside rule is implemented to favour attackers, coaches worldwide just add another body to the increasing pile of defenders sitting back in front of their own goal.
In this particular case the new rule would favour sprinters and would harm teams that defend in a high line. Therefore those teams would drop deeper, effectively ending with the sprinters advantage and resulting in more posession based football, with overpopulated penalty areas, less transitions in midfield and -in my opinion- duller matches.
I don't think there's anything particularly wrong with today's offside rule. The game has become faster and therefore matches can be (and are) decided by razor-thin close calls, like yesterday. Therefore I like the implementation of VAR, even when it could and should be better used, faster and more accurate. Changes should be focused in making the intepretation easier for officials, therefore making them less reliant on VAR which can be too expensive to implement in lower leagues.
