Er, you sort of missed the point there. I meant the player who pulled the ball back, not the scorer.

in your example he is utterly irrelevant as how the hell can he be interfering
He's in the six-yard box in an offside position - see Quinn's OP that I was answering.
Robbo was standing near the goal line within feet of the GK as VVD headed the ball there really is no comparison to a man 6 yards from the goal and on the touchline .
Sigh, I agree. Quinner's contention, though, was that anyone in an offside position in a 6-yard box is automatically offside: I countered that by saying that rule is that being in an offside position does not mean you're offside - that is the actual rule. It shouldn't be changed for just one part of the pitch - it doesn't need to be. You're not necessarily active just because you're in the 6-yard box.
I rest my case.
The remarkable point of this is that Oliver (again!) thinks that Robertson is "directly in front of him". Though I wouldn't expect the lino who made the call to know otherwise, one simple view on VAR should have told them the Robbo is nowhere near the goalie's eyeline, and the 'movement' (ducking under the ball) was nowhere near as impactful as Doku attempting to head the ball as it flew past him.

I'm fine about it all. It is what it is. I've said what I think previously so I'm not going to bang on about it I hope I'm wrong but we'll be mid table soon imo and conversations will change again.
Its not a failing system, it's the people using the system that are incompetent
I suppose I mean 10th as mid table and yes I think we'll stay there abouts.
I got insulted for daring to suggest a player just did his job last midweek
I dont insult people back on here, I just call it like I see it and get pelted and such
Lfc will not be anywhere near midtable by the end of this season. It'll be fine.
We will end up 3rd or 4th.

You were talking about Conor Bradley who was clearly the standout performer
It's semantics really isn't it. The people using the system are part of the system and the system can't function without them. If any part of the system isn't working then the whole doesn't work. If any one out of the audio links, the cameras, the monitors or the humans working the equipment fails then the whole system fails. The only part of the system that keeps malfunctioning is the human.

Interesting article on sky showing what we all know but the drop off in running stats / pressing stats and counter pressing stats is astronomical.
Now we expected it to drop from 2 years ago as Slot has a different more methodical style which helped us preserve fitness and probably led to less injuries, but even comparing it to last season is a huge drop off.
https://www.skysports.com/football/...r-physicality-and-intensity-between-the-lines
Interceptions and tackles per game down from 25 to 20
Distance coveted, we are 3rd lowest with only West Ham and Chelsea below us. Man City and Arsenal are 2 of the top 3
Distance covered down albeit slightly
Pressure down from around 335 per 90 to less than 280!!
Counter pressures down from 84 to 75
Looking at individuals
Szobo numbers hugely down but also impacted by playing RB
But jones minus 17, gravenverch minus 10 mac minus 8 and gakpo minus 14 are huge drops offs which are allowing teams to get up the field at us so much easily. Has to be a mixture of both tactics and fitness

You get pelted because you have a habit of talking
at people other than to them or you're making out that you're the font of all football knowledge other than just having an opinion or to suggest how you think or feel how things may go.
The evidence of your eyes tells you that as well, but I did think Szobbo was being more the number 8 we bought two seasons ago, except, of course, for those games he's been shoe-horned into the RB position.
