Yeah and it can bounce off his arse cheek or left knacker as he tries to get himself between the ball and the goal. Not a deliberate playing of the ball.
It's just an example. There could be others, but it's easier for me to use Liverpool examples as, well, I tend to watch all their games (and tbf, I did use the Milner example where we benefitted, so it's not just a victim whine). And I personally said all along it was onside, even though I think the rules stink and have given examples why. Oh, and I didn't bring 'control' into the discussion - bogus that mate, and it got called out.
Yeah if it's a bounce it's not deliberate, but if both defender and attacker are heading towards the line and the defender slides and gets a touch then he's deliberately played the ball. I never said it would apply in every situation, I disagreed with your insinuation that it never would.
I was going to slag you off for having an Arsenal player score for you, but it's his brother! Still a former Goon, so still filth.
Yeah mate as it’s not like Mings controlled the ball tonight like and got caught in possession, as opposed to merely playing the ball. Yet I’m being called out by those who said it was defo offside, yet the same posters are then asserting that in fact it could have just bounced off his leg and it’d have been sound apparently perfectly good goal. ****ing lol. Off to watch the 2nd half of the United game, as I’m that bored.
Areola at fault again Man Utd’s undoubted quality to shine through in the end for a comfortable win, or the usual late penalty, either or.
Didn't say either of those bits in bold. My view on tonight's goal is that he was interfering with play and gained an advantage by being in that position, as if he wasn't the goal wouldn't have happened. My opinion; it's a game of them and there's very few definites in football. I've also said that there's an issue with scrutinizing each letter of the laws and ignoring common sense, as the laws weren't written to that effect and football's an imperfect game. I also never mentioned a bounce, that's your word again. I simply agreed with PNP that if a deliberate touch negates offside then that should also apply to a cross where a defender has deliberately blocked it. Enjoy the game mate
