he tried to get his hands out of the way but didn't in time. Rules are unclear and I'm not gonna complain about it as it's 6 of 1 half a dozen of the other

Intent should be a huge part in decision making, Look at bamford...
----------------------------------------------------------------------

What do you mean? If a player didn't intend to be offside then it shouldn't be given even if he is offside?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
No, offside is about having an unfair advantage, I wouldnt say pointing qualifies
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Offside is about being closer to the goal than the second last defender when the ball is played. It is next to impossible to decide if a player gained an advantage from being offside because it is impossible to say what would have happened if they had been onside, so advantage doesn't come into it.

Pathetic refereeing but justice done..

Unlucky to be level.. much better side

I'd take a point now. They look to have gained confidence as the game wore on

Good half from us, would have been a travesty if we were behind at half time.

If we had Firmino of old we would have been 3-1 up

Quite happy to go in level
Thought we were 2nd best majority of that half

lack of actually shooting that half

We've been the better side in that half.

High quality game.

Far too wasteful in the final 3rd.

No thats how its determined, not the spirit of the rule.

And it should be determined soley from foot positioning, Not a rough estimate on a distance 1/5th of the way down the arm.

Sometimes had too many options so have overcomplicated things.

Crabnaldum 0/10
Mane 0/10

Everyone else has been pretty good.

Wasteful final balls from the front 4. Poor if they executed better we be winning at HT . The teams shape been good part from the goal.

We look more of a threat when going forward. Just final ball is not right. I would like to see Shaqiri for Firmino

Exactly annoying if we got careful we could pay for it.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

The spirit of the rule is reflected in the wording of the rule, otherwise they would have worded it differently.

If they wanted to they could change it to feet, but this would make it significantly harder for linesman to see (although tht might be less of a problem with VAR) and ignores the fact that you can score with other parts of the body

First pen to miss the target in the prem since this fixture in 2018 when Mahrez did it.

I would argue that to beat a defender to a ball with say, your head, Your foot position is going to have a massive role to play, its not like you can run horizontally.

Keane is right though, it was classic Kyle Walker.

You beat me to it Taki

We would have dominated and created more chances with Thiago in the position of Wijnaldum. He would control and not panic when under pressure.
