No....

 

[ammarfcb]

No....

you might as well spill it all now.

any truth to the howedes/turan/cissoko rumours?
is alonso comin home?

 

[AnfieldEd]

I'd actually love to sign Howedes - I rate him above Hummels. But no I haven't heard anything on those players.

In regards to Iturre just that we've had contact with him and not received a negative response from him.

Málaga claiming UEFA / Platini refereeing conspiracy. They really have joined Spain's élite teams now. Welcome to the club!

The refereeing was bad, but their second goal was also offside. Malaga's paper are talking about robbery, but leaving this out... Even Pellegrini.

Málagas goal was only marginally offside, and the ball would've entered anyway. Dortmund players were offside twice for their goal, first when the cross was made (4-5 players clearly offside) and when the ball came to the guy who scored. And I guess the timing has something to do with it.

It doesn't matter though. He was still offside and he chose to touch the ball. Dortmund's might have been more offside but they still even each other out.

Yeah, I never suggested otherwise, just explaining their reaction. Schmelzer not being sent off too.

The ball wasn't going in without eliseu's deflection. And it was clear offside live on tv too. It doesn't explain their reaction, imo. They are ignoring the fact their 2nd goal wasn't legit too. With these 2 goals cancelled, dortmund still wins.

Isn't the law that if the player is in line with the ball he is not offside?

He was in front of the ball line.

The ball is on the line of the grass, he is a little in front. But I don't think that matters here, as the other malaga player is onside. The ball line rule is for when there's no defender. He is offside despite the ball line.

Looked like it was heading in at first, but I watched a stream so wasn't the best quality. Looks to me like it's about 10-20 cm offside.

I don't think there needs to be a defender for the ball line rule to kick in. But I am not sure. If you can confirm, that'd be great.

Both players need to be in front of the last defender, for the ball line rule to be valid. Or there would never be any offside.
