Anthony Gordon (now playing for FC Barcelona)

We'd better get him now after all this, for as much Id have never have chosen him. I now want him chasing and chopping down defenders in the final 3rd and pelting towards the goal for the second half of our season. I'm all for that injection. -
Increasing the margin for error and "moving the lines" does address the problem, though. You reduce the scope for qualifying for offside. Yes the lines have to be drawn somewhere, but that doesnt mean wherever the lines are placed you end up with the same decisions because lines are lines. If we use the daylight example, you'll still measure and essentially use lines (though you'd likely not have to draw them because youre looking for the gap, but it's still the same measurement). But that Forest equaliser would have been allowed because youve increased the margin for error from like 1cm to about a foot or more. Offsides will go down and goals will go up. Its like asking someone to throw pebbles in to a hole that's of 1cm diameter to one that's 1m in diameter. Youre still drawing circles but one of them is much easier to get stones in to.

They don't even need to get rid of it though, they just increase the margin for error so less examples qualify for being given offside. In 25 years we've gone from "Daylight" to "the edge of your knee cant be 1cm ahead of the end of their foot". Its beyond silly.

Urgh

Because he's good. I remember him in CM playing for Wolves when he was 18 or something and looking brilliant. Think he then had a quieter season and went out on loan for next 2 years. He's definitely quality, though, would have him here before Gordon no question.
-
The end of his knee was like 2 inches ahead of the defenders planted foot, or something equally as stupid. Imagine how many goals we've been denied seeing since all this was introduced, and the subsequent action after x team scored to make it whatever. I honestly hate whoever came up with it.
-
These should be goals, not 3 minutes of drawing lines on players who are level. The game would be so much better if they were goals like they used to be.

Shut up, Rod.

He's been brilliant. He just drifts across the front line so well. -

Isak is class. We have been missing those balls in with the way we had been playing so far this season imo. -

He'd not get points anyway. Leeds would need to score for that to happen and they cant play Cardiff every week. -
