GA was not effin' offside there!!

Yes he was!
Oh no, he wasn't!

Yes he was and he certainly didn't need to be given his pace.
Oh no, he wasn't! ....














... but he missed anyway.

Does the fact that Chelsea got a free kick rather than goal kick suggest he was offside, whether you, I or the Pope believed he was offside?

Pointless putting crosses in the air, play to feet.

Agreed. We have two small forwards against essentially 3 CB's in the Chelsea defence and a tall keeper. We have to be more clever and get behind them on the deck.

I know they were given a fucking free kick! does that make the decision correct? - no.
Technically, I believe he was onside.
Just as I believe that technically Sturridge was offside for the Chelsea goal (as was either Lampard or Mata; couldn't tell which one it was).

But it's academic really since GA missed and Chelsea's goal was awarded.

We're playing like an inexperienced team doing their best against a team in the QF's of the Champions League
