"I think they are complaining because Rooney was in the path of the goalkeeper but if he did not touch it, it does not matter. Louis van Gaal has got the reaction he needed. I have sympathy with the Preston keeper, but the rules are, if you do not touch the ball it is OK. For me, he is interfering though."


if your infront of the keeper then you must be interfering!
remember the Newcastle v man city game a couple of years back when Tiote banged a 25 yarder in but it was chalked off because someone was standing NEAR Joe Hart?
 
The commentator saying that the "rule" states if you don't touch it you cant give offside... <laugh> Learn the rules mate....

Then Keown saying ""I think they are complaining because Rooney was in the path of the goalkeeper but if he did not touch it, it does not matter"

Right, so even an ex pro doesn't realise that there is a thing called interfering with play?

The keeper can't dive for the ball too early as he has t anticipate a touch from Rooney, Rooney then pulls out leaving it too late for the keeper to dive. Only way it could be more interfering with play is if he let it go through his legs <doh>

Ok then, next time your team gets a free kick 20 yards out just stick 2/3 men on the keeper - make sure you don't touch it and it's fine

**** sake
 
How is standing directly infront of the keeper not interfering with play?

Having to move out of the path of the ball make it fairly obvious too.

Oh well, they've scored a second now so game over.
 
Okay, okay. Man Utd turning this around may well be my fault. Preston were 1-0 up until I started watching!
