Silva didnt go for the ball before Mings touched it (its a bollox rule as we all know)
Go back to the old days if you are offside you are offside end of.
No no no, Mane's and Mo have tried to challenge and rob defenders loads of times when coming back from an offside position after the defender's had a touch and the flag has always gone up immediately
On the flip side, how many times in games has a player been in an offside position, we've won the ball in front of them, are quickly looking to move forward and then the fucking flag goes up and the ref halts us?
According to the Premier League, as soon as the defender had touched the ball, the player is no longer offside, so why in our games when our defender's had a touch, are our quick counters constantly halted and the game brought back for their player being offside?
