It comes down to if his arm was in a natural position or not which is completely down to interpretation. There is a reason why handball decisions have and be debated forever.

No one can come up with a black and white ruling coz there isn't one.

Of course, but I was clarifying that handballs deemed unintentional in the build up of a goal are no longer grounds to disallow the goal.

However, even under the IFAB rules I provided, you’d be hard pressed to deem Mahrez’s arm (and the movement of the arm when the ball struck his hand) as being in an “unnatural” position.

I didn't understand the new deal, certainly when already in thirties?

We could have got decent money this summer and chucked it at someone else or kept Jesus and Zin for improved terms.

The deal means Mahrez is with us until the end of his career.

100% agree - I would have been much happier with just a one year extension mainly because it makes it harder to fit in plenty of games for Palmer and Julien plus it still protects our investment as you could sell him next summer. Very talented but my issue is always we don't look as fluid when he plays. Anyway hopefully Erling now on pens so all good.
