I like var, never been of an opinion that it’s not needed. But i also liked the unwritten “pro-attacking” rule in situations when two players are on one line and no clear body part is ahead of the line, in that case it was onside. And i get it with var it’s impossible to draw that arbitrary line, but these millimeters being so scrutinized while the team worked for that goal is frustrating

I feel like at this point we’re beyond the spirit of the rule.

Wish the new rigor around offsides, I believe the rule should be the opposite, any player in line with the defender is onside. It’s tough seeing goals pulled back because of extremities being a centimetre offside

I’ve got it! Strikers just need to Naruto run and the problem’s solved.

Maybe it’s time for Wenger’s new offside rule.

Reason #828574 why the offside rule needs to evolve

We’ve gone too far

Now we need another Nintendo 64 graphic of the exact moment the ball was kicked so we can know if we’re putting intense scrutiny on the correct millisecond of gameplay

I’m a Utd fan and this is a ridiculous decision. What advantage is the attacker getting here?

The offside rule needs to be changed to favour attackers instead of punishing them.

At the end of the day we all to see more goals ont less.

How would the sport be if offside only happened if no part of the offensive player overlapped with a defensive player? Meaning the whole of the offensive player had to be offside? Thoughts?

VAR is so incredibly lame. Can’t believe people actually lobbied for the idea that “football isn’t enough like a jury trial” and it was a popular suggestion

When it comes to offsides I see so much discourse around where the line is drawn and what part of the players body is ahead of it. But I find it funny to see 0 discourse on when the frame is frozen, ie when did the passer release the ball. Freezing the frame a few milliseconds early or late could be the difference between no offside and offside, and the marginal calls exist there as well.

Shame we dont have the same accuracy for when a ball has left the foot.
