FIFA boss Gianni Infantino has thrown his weight behind Arsene Wenger’s planned reform of the offside laws.

SunSport revealed earlier this year how former Arsenal manager Wenger, now head of Fifa’s global development department, wants a radical change to stop 'marginal offsides'.

Under the Wenger plan, set to be on the table at the annual business meeting of the law-making body Ifab on December 16, an attacking player will be onside if any part of his body overlaps the last defender.

Infantino said: “The offside rule has evolved over the last 100 years.

Arsene and our head of refereeing, Pierluigi Collina, are debating if they can make it better and foster offensive football.

“The question is whether we should give more advantage to the attacking player, which is always how the rule has evolved.

“That would mean no more 'marginal offsides', as we are seeing with VAR, because the player would really have to be in front of the defender.

“I know that attackers and midfielders are very favourable to this, while goalkeepers and defenders have more worries.

“Ifab will be dealing with this later this month.”

Controversial decisions - such as the one to rule out Patrick Bamford's effort against Crystal Palace after he pointed where he wanted the ball - may no longer be scrubbed off.

I agree with you. But just one question : how long will it take for Trump's campaign team to open this up? Because from what I can see, there is less than 2weeks separating electoral disputes and the electoral college voting.

Trump is running his last scam before leaving the office by telling those gullible idiots that supports him that he needs their money to fight the rigged election. Now he has conned those idiots of almost $180 million. Don the Con is a master scammer just a notch behind Bernie Madoff .

The Senate will not approve any Bidens nominee unless they declare all their foreign ties.
I suspect Joe Biden will concede once the electoral fraud is exposed By The Way

Bluebyrd:
Even CNN is now admitting China lied about Covid cases and deaths after running cover for the CCP for months. CNN and the left wing media are a huge disgrace.

And Trump was right, AGAIN!!
