Is this an update on yesterday’s breaking news post about the same subject?

Doesn’t that offside change effectively kick the can down the road? Next we’ll be measuring a back foot against a knee cap

The offside thing seems ridiculous as any marginal decision will still remain contentious, its just simply moving the lines.

It's worse than that, playing a high line becomes impossible because attackers essentially get a yard advantage on the defender compared to now

When Coventry City aren’t playing all the other teams should be asking “Where’s Coventry City?”

Should be the body mass/torso. Don’t see why that’s so difficult. If any part of the bodies are overlapping then it’s onside. If there’s a gap then offside. Easier to measure with this semi-automated as well.

Surely it’s all the same problem of drawing a line and determining if a player is past it?

Trying to reduce time wasting by new laws like the subs only having a set time but introducing more VAR for corners

Great one FIFA!

That’s true but then I think there’d be less arguments about it being as picky as someone’s foot being bigger (wright/wan-bissaka). The perceived advantage to the attacker if his body is clearly ahead of the defender would be easier to swallow.

I don't think Wengers alteration was supposed to be less contentious or easier for the officials? Wasn't it about promoting attacking play and making the games more exciting/more goals

I think some of the argument is that this will actually hinder that, as teams will just sit tighter defensively. So instead you'll just get a load of Pep-style passing from side to side trying to break through a low block, or get the ball being hoofed from one end of the pitch to the other and midfield becomes pretty much irrelevant.

Fucking joke of a system destroyed the game as we knew it.
