This looks to be the tightest VAR offside yet.

It HAS to change next season.

Leagues MUST be allowed to follow the UCL method and only give offside when technology graphically provides a clear decision.

Pierluigi Collina wants it this way. It has to happen. #FULWOL
One subjective aspect people don't appreciate is one VAR can look this and decide the tech isn't needed and give the goal.

But tonight (like with Bamford vs. Palace) the VAR decided to get the tech out. Once he does that, it opens it up to these pathetic millimetre decisions.
Decisions such as these are NOT about the offside law. People get wrapped up in that.

It's not the problem. It's not about feet. It's not about daylight.

The issue is how offside is handled in VAR. How the major leagues have been told to use the tech to the absolute letter.
Changing the offside law wouldn't alter ANYTHING if you keep using the technology in this way.

There would still be players ruled offside with red and blue lines blurring into each other.

Until we get semi-automated offside, the VAR process must be relaxed.
