Unless you are a ref against Villa in which case the offside player can leap frog the ball whilst trying to sweep it in and they will be ruled as not intefering with play.

Which match was that?

Can't remember exact match but a freekick came in from far left of box. The attacker standing right in front of the keeper in an offside position lept the ball but did try to kick it which delayed our keeper from diving for it and the freekick went straight in. Ref and lino decided he wasn't interfering.
Same thing happened in another Manchester City game a few weeks ago and the Manchester player was deemed not interfering with play?

Any idea which one.

The one Slot moaned about (Wolves last season) is different as the player attacked the keeper before the ball was kicked, but had stopped before the header which would have made him offside and interfering. And that ball didn't sail over the ducking players head but to the side of him unlike the Liverpool one.

Plus it was against "We am Wolves" so funny as well.

Said it before, Slot is like Klopp. All smiles and charm when it's going well. Snidey unpleasant whiney twat when it isn't.

TBH, most of us stated that they were winning the league because of the form of Salah and nearest contenders shat the bed. His stats that last season were almost the exact same as the stats Klopp had when he come 3rd the season before, but Slot had almost 50 of the 86 goals come through one man, 20 more then Klopp had the season before.

Liverpool have made contact with Professional Game Match Officials Limited to raise their concerns over the decision to disallow Virgil van Dijk's goal in Sunday's 3-0 defeat at Manchester City.

Slot is going to thrweam and thrweam and thrweam until he is thwick.

What does everyone else think about this? The match was 3-0. We didn’t kick off this much with a clear error which denied us champions league football.

I'd have no complaints if that was a Villa effort disallowed, whiney twats.

I think we put out a statement about the disappointment in the decision. We might have contacted PGMOL behind the scenes but didn't tell anyone we had.

It is funny that they moan about "line of sight" when the whole point wasn't line of sight but an action that could distract the goalie.

I feel it would be easier to go back to if you are offside anywhere on the pitch you are offside .  As Jack Charlton would say ‘ what you doing on the pitch if are not interfering with play like ‘

I think that was Bill Shankly.

Also his comment about opposition teams always having players rushing back from injury to play them. We had more players out injured for that match than they did.
