BigOscar said:Yes, but the keeper cannot dive untill it passes Rooney as he doesn't know if Rooney is going to touch it or not, he cannot commit untill it's too late. That's the problem with the stupid rule, it's expecting defenders and keepers to be linesman and know who is offisde and somehow adjust their game. You see it all the time where defenders lunge to cut out through passes, taking themselves out the game and losing possession, even though the guy the ball is aimed at is offside. The defender cannot just let it through, as he can't be sure it's offside, but the other team then gains from him having to cut the ball out.SPIDERBOY said:Never a penalty,fellaini shoved the defender......herrera goal was fine IMO......yes rooney was offside,but didn't impede the keepers vision and didn't touch it.

The only decision they got was the penalty. He dives after he goes past the keeper, he's a cheat.
I can't wait till we play these, if we don't have any injuries it could be embarrassing. I hope Yorke and Phil Neville will be in the studio, I'm sick of both of them.

if the ball is going to hit rooney who`s in an offside position and he moves away so it doesnt hit him and therefore goes in the net, surely it is interfering with play by moving out of the way of the ball

Maybe it also shows that the premier league isn't as good as we think using the rags form here as a guide..Blue Hefner said:J_Bow said:Somehow 1 loss in 19 for them.
How many of those games were against lower league sides or sides that are likely to be relegated from the Premier League this season
