      1 month, 17 days ago

      Exactly..Still.stupid rule

  9. FPL Blow-In
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    1 month, 17 days ago

    If Enzo plays that ball from an offside position how is it a goal?

    1. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      1 month, 17 days ago

      Martinez goes to defend Enzo who is offside when he could have played the ball?

    2. BeaversWithAttitude
      1 month, 17 days ago

      Looked like a John Terryesque air header to me...

  10. Three Pints of Schlager
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    1 month, 17 days ago

    Must be Dorgu's foot which played them onside

    1. BeaversWithAttitude
      1 month, 17 days ago

      Big toe.

  11. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…

    1. SINGH
      1 month, 17 days ago

      they looked at the first player which is enzo

      1. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
        1 month, 17 days ago

        Yes but he’s offside by default from Vardiol’s cross

        1. SINGH
          1 month, 17 days ago

          ah in that case then I am not sure

    2. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
      1 month, 17 days ago

      That’s outrageous and again drama on purpose to get people talking about it.

    3. DLL18
      1 month, 17 days ago

      Dorgu's foot is playing him on probably

    4. GREEN JUMPERS
      1 month, 17 days ago

    2. Fifa las vegas
      1 month, 17 days ago

      Did Dorgu maybe just play him on? Can’t understand it

      1. Fifa las vegas
        1 month, 17 days ago

        Yep, so if Dorgu didn’t even try it would t have been a goal

  16. AC/DC AFC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    1 month, 17 days ago

    1. Fifa las vegas
      1 month, 17 days ago

  22. AC/DC AFC

    1 month, 17 days ago

    Dorgu foot and deflection

    1. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      1 month, 17 days ago

      Meaning what exactly?

      1. GREEN JUMPERS
        1 month, 17 days ago

        Meaning that’s where it’s measured from…onside

        1. FPL Blow-In
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          1 month, 17 days ago

          What’s the rule say?

        2. FPL Blow-In
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          1 month, 17 days ago

          Issue isn’t whether Haaland is onside it’s Enzo playing it

  23. Gudjohnsen
    1 month, 17 days ago

    I need to go to Specsavers

    Thought he was well offside

    1. AC/DC AFC
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      1 month, 17 days ago

      Perspective

  24. F4L
    1 month, 17 days ago

      Defcon time

  25. AC/DC AFC
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    1 month, 17 days ago

    V close from Enzo

    Solid save

  26. All Hail K
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    1 month, 17 days ago

    Gvardiol+De Cuper+Califiori+Tarkowski, who needs mids and forwards?

    1. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
      1 month, 17 days ago

      And Davis 😎

      1. All Hail K
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        1 month, 17 days ago

        Yes, good one.

      2. Zalk
        1 month, 17 days ago

        And Raya

  27. Three Pints of Schlager
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    1 month, 17 days ago

    Since Foden and Jerky are both off, ManCity are like a new team.

    1. All Hail K
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      1 month, 17 days ago

      Very true. Everyone else stepping up.

      1. Feanor
        1 month, 17 days ago

        Enzo or Semenyo the only viable mids

  28. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
    1 month, 17 days ago

    Can someone who fully understands the rules explain why it was given?

    Was Haaland level with the ball or something.

    So it just came down to whether an offside Enzo was interfering with play?
    If so then how him diving towards the keeper isn’t interfering then I’ll never know

    1. FPL Blow-In
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      1 month, 17 days ago

      Haaland was onside. My quarrel with it is Enzo playing it from an offside position meaning Martinez can’t defend the ball and has to play Enzo instead

      1. GREEN JUMPERS
        1 month, 17 days ago

        Fair point

      2. Feanor
        1 month, 17 days ago

        He’s not offside if it was deflected deliberately by Dorgu

        1. FPL Blow-In
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          1 month, 17 days ago

          Enzo is still miles offside when Gvardiol crosses it. If Dorgu was to try play a pass / intentionally play the ball then Enzo would be onside. Because a cross from point blank deflects off Dorgu doesn’t mean he is onside?

      3. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
        1 month, 17 days ago

        What’s the logic that’s he’s onside?
        Since Haaland is 100% ahead of all defenders as the cross is played

        1. Fifa las vegas
          1 month, 17 days ago

          Not ahead of Dorgu’s foot though apparently

          1. KAPTAIN KANE SERVES THE PAI…
            1 month, 17 days ago

            He definitely was, they need their eyes checking, his whole body let alone outstretched arm was

  29. OverTinker
    1 month, 17 days ago

    Will gvardiol get the assist?

  30. GREEN JUMPERS
    1 month, 17 days ago

    How good is this Man Utd team?

    1. Three Pints of Schlager
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      1 month, 17 days ago

      What is Maguire doing with Enzo?

      Okay, Enzo is not the best actor, but still, he is trying so hard.
