It just leads you to believe that the whole game is set for everyone to make money while fans of the game see the game eroded to the level of WWE.

It no longer has that much integrity.

Would the same work for a GK parrying a shot to an offside striker?

Ours against Southampton was disallowed.

Thats my point, using their flawed logic, doesn't the keeper intentionally playing the ball play Raz onside?

Edit: the laws do state that a save is ok

A player in an offside position receiving the ball from an opponent who deliberately plays the ball, including by deliberate handball, is not considered to have gained an advantage, unless it was a deliberate save by any opponent.
A ‘save’ is when a player stops, or attempts to stop, a ball which is going into or very close to the goal with any part of the body except the hands/arms (unless the goalkeeper within the penalty area).

Garcia didn't save anything and also the linesman could have flagged for offside before Garcia touched it, he didn't.

Soon the Rags and Scouse will use 8 metres either side of the goal as "Close" to the goal.

All pathetic and unnecessary rule changes like the crap about Phases of play.

I saw Rhian Brewster got sent off for the U21s in a 1-0 win. How does that bum get international game time, he's awful!?

And England only beat Andorra 1-0. How does that happen?

He’s scored 1 goal in 8 this season. After last seasons zero goals I feel for kids who should actually be playing in place of him.

Ridiculous huh. I’d normally feel for a young lad struggling with a big price tag but that image of him flaunting his chumps league medal after contributing fuck all annoyed me.

Well spotted, my deliberate mistake, done to invite comment and provoke debate

Just what we have been waiting for off the BBC - :

A £100m touch from Jack Grealish, flicking the ball into the path of Luke Shaw down the left.

Not bad for starters.

Thought so

Wonder why Shaw is moaning to the ref. A stonewall penner and he is perhaps lucky not to get a red

Lol, Sterling is about to tap it in at the back post and Stones nips in to score

Not 100% fit so stayed behind to work on fitness. Hope one or two follow his lead in the future
