According to him, some ex refs have also said its offside.

Rashford dummied a shot, i genuinely cant see how that isnt impacting the goalies action.
 
It should be but isn't in the current rules. Much like Rashford's multiple disallowed goals for 'handball' when a defender kicked the ball at him shouldn't have been disallowed.

No one is arguing about it being offside. It is whether Rashford interfered with play.

Why didn't akanji chase the ball down and Kyle walker was blocked by Bruno not Rashford. Yeah maybe Rashford did interfere but then you cannot excuse Cities laziness for not playing to the whistle.

In the last 4 games against Arsenal United have won 2, drawn 1 and lost 1. Hardly memories.

You're banging on about "and upcoming talent" Lingard making our place his dance floor. That wasn't in the last 4 games was it? Was that even the last 4 managers you've failed with?

No, memories.

I wasn't banging on about anything it was simply bants that a player of poor quality danced under the lights of the Emirates.

Man United have lost 1 game in their last 19 (Since the 6-3 city defeat). I personally cannot wait for this weekend. Wout Weghorst is coming.
 
I dunno I quite like Wout tbh, this weekend should be great game.

I'm expecting, like most Arsenal fans, a large dip at some point but until then I'm milking us being top of the league.

Dale Johnson's view - there's a degree of subjectivity (as with most football decisions), but it was legitimately onside.

Good piece that. Rashford simply HAS to be guilty of "Making an obvious action which clearly impacts the ability of an opponent to play the ball" for me. He makes a good comparison to a disallowed Bretford goal against Newcastle where Toney rolled the defender but didn't touch the ball. I don't see how this is any different.

Whos ability did he impact to play the ball? The only one who has a credible claim on that is the keeper. As mentioned in the article as well, if any City player had got close enough to Rashford to have to do literally anything to avoid him then it would have been offside. If Akanji would have had to slow down, break his stride or move in any direction to avoid him it would have been offside. As it was Akanji didn't make the effort to do that so he wasn't impeded. Walker didn't take any action that involved Rashford either.

You can argue that their actions were informed by Rashford but thats not the rule.
