So Peter Walton is saying if a striker kicks the ball away from goal and hits a defender and bounces back to him it's offside? Bullshit

What a terrible rule though, all 3 are playing for the ball. After Valverde touches it, it then travels in the opposite direction from Konates touch then back to Benzema off of Fabinho.

Don’t disagree, not even sure Valverde touches it, it’s yet another bizarre cloudy decision, but by its correct by the rule (which may have been written on a fag packet during the 5 minutes hiatus)

No. 
 

The idea behind the rule is say if a defender heads it back from a hoof but cocks it up and the attacker is twenty yards behind him not interfering then the goal stands. 
 

In that example Fabinho has made a block to stop a pass to a non offside player / shot 

If he's not interfering...

 

Valverde passes it forward when Benzema is offside 5 yards from goal

Not sure what's been worse tonight...

 

 

The match being delayed because of the scousers

 

The americanised pre match show

 

The game itself

 

The offside decision

 

Or the Katy Perry just eat advert

What isn't intentional about winning the ball from a tackle?

He slid across to get the ball, the contact wasn't accidental.

He did slid in, but the nature of the contact was accidental. Crap rule, but it is the rule.

It’s a stupid rule though because an official has to assume a players intention. Which is nonsense. 

I'm pretty sure the rule's intention is to avoid slightly deflected passes counting as onside. I don't think that decision is in the spirit of what the law intended at all.

Convinced he's talking crap. Sure there is nothing in the rules about the touch having to be deliberate to count.

What about Konate sliding in and touching the ball?

There’s grey areas for everything isn’t there? Just make some clear rules because that could be either or…… it bounces off Fabinho’s leg, so surely it’s a goal? It’s not a deflection…..

Wasn't he offside as the ball was played over the top..?? I don't know..

 

Anyway..enjoyable game..seems some fans..no weird cynics...actually sitting at home with gritted teeth and clenched arse, just wishing ,hoping 

L'pool loose.Not really interested in the football at All..

Plus some others wanting it to be a shit game, and believe it is if they shout loud enough...

WTF have we got for supporters..

.I must of been transported into some zombie dimension...

It's soccer ball baby. 

 

Been slowly sneaking in unopposed. Next season I'll bet we hear the term 'Jersey' used regularly as well as 'Roster'. 

 

There's a right appetite for it. 

 

I do wonder if I'll be a football fan into my old age; the game is changing way too fast into something I don't fully know anymore.

It's just shit

The other thing that Walton on BT is completely ignoring is the second part of that law which says it’s not deliberate, and therefore inside, if the developer is ‘attempting to stop the ball’ close to the goal. Presumably at least one of the defenders if not both was trying to do that.

this sums it up pretty well for me actually. 

Fabinho slides in aiming to play the ball (as if he doesn't and takes the man, it's a foul). So the intent is their to play the ball surely?
