There are. The clown continually called Cancelo "Cansella" and Zinchenko "Zinchenka". That's the first rule of commentary: the only commentators allowed to mispronounce names in football history have been Mick Channon and Ron Atkinson.I've never known so many mistakes by a commentary team.
1) savage getting his facts wrong at half time.
2)commentator kept saying gundogan has scored, when it was silva.
3)mc pointy, kept saying the header was going wide anyway, as if that had anything to do with it!.
4)commentator saying great clearance from Stones,when it was DIAS.
I bet there is more as well.
They are crying because we won.Has any media outlet mentioned how on earth Grealish wasn't at least yellow carded for any of his multiple assaults on several of our players yet (forcing two of them off the pitch), or are they still crying about a goal that was allowed to stand because the laws of the game say that there was nothing wrong with it?

TBF Turf Moor is at 128m above sea level, Anfield is at 66m, so all of that water could run downhill and flood Liverpool.Turf Moor could have 2 ft of water on it won't make any difference. Scouse at home.

One can hope.
Is that true (I thought it was myself) because I keep seeing in the comments sections of the media people crying that they keep changing the rules?What is going on here, that rule has existed for years...
But the LotG don't require a player in an offside position to stay where he is and allow an opponent an untrammeled 'go' at the ball. Rodri's offside position is deleted out of existence the moment Mings plays the ball! Had Mings the foresight to let Rodri run up to him, not chest the ball and bingo, Rodri is caught offside! But that didn't happen! And for once I must give IronLung Jonny five stars!Rodri gained 20 odd yards on Mings before he touched the ball. He was in the perfect position to dispossess him due to the run he had made from an offside position.
My argument isn’t that Rodri was offside because the law states he clearly wasn’t, it’s that the law should change so Rodri should be offside.
Thanks for pointing that out mate, I am not normally so insightful during the emotion of an actual game, particularly when we can’t seem to get the opening goal!You were right mate @Mancity1980 in the match day thread - titles certainly are won in matches like that :-))
Just Dean SmithIn the clear light of day and the offside law staring us in the face with its carefully crafted black and white phrases, is there anyone still calling offside? Any pro or ex-pro still quoting offside must, one, not be able to read, two, incapable of understanding what has been explained, or three, hasn't had it explained and suffers from never understanding it in the first place. Where's CamelGob this morning?
He's trying to decide whether your points 1 or 2 apply to himself without realising that it's actually both. So will keep him confused for a couple of days I'd have thought.In the clear light of day and the offside law staring us in the face with its carefully crafted black and white phrases, is there anyone still calling offside?

The fact that Walton actually had to refer to the ‘rules’ as opposed to his ‘opinion’ tells you all you need to know about that plank.I found it incredible that Peter Walton did not know the off side law but then again he is part of the PL training department. For all Moss's faults at least he knew the law.
Then to say it shouldn't be a pen because the header was not on target. Beggars belief.
Also, the persistent fouling law appears to have changed. I counted 7 by Grealish without a card or even a talking to. In my day you were told to talk to the player on 3 fouls, caution on 4 and 2nd yellow for next offence.
i know what you're driving at but what if Rodri had come from 20 yards square onside, closed him down and won the ball. Why does his initial position with respect to the last defender make a difference to him 'gaining' an advantage?Rodri gained 20 odd yards on Mings before he touched the ball. He was in the perfect position to dispossess him due to the run he had made from an offside position.
