    He was just to the side of the trajectory of the ball but definitely in the keeper's eyeline. Stupid, stupid rule.

    As Danny Blanchflower said " if he's not interfering with play, what's he doing on the pitch?"

    Ah right, I'm not watching so wasn't sure of the circumstances or context. It looks like the Man U fans have taken over this thread so I'll sit back and watch the fun unfold.

    Eaxactly as a goalkeeper, anyone in the box especially that close has a bearing on your positioning and the goalkeeper therefore needs to take into consideration that player may be involved in the play, hence that player has to be offisde.

    For me offside should apply to anyone in the penalty area.

    That would be a simple & effective rule that could be simply applied. Only exceptions should be a man down injured.

    Err, no it wasn’t because he didn’t touch the ball, that is the current rule. Should the rule be changed? I believe so – I’d change it so that it’s offside if in the 6 yard box regardless of whether the ball is touched.

    Eastander is right - see explanation from Graham Poll ( sorry its in the mail online)
    http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/fo...lained-Alan-Hansen-Mick-McCarthy-rest-us.html

    As Rooney was to the side and didnt touch the ball he is not active. Had the keeper saved it though and Rooney had kicked in the rebound he would have been offside

    Not sure that the balance is right but you dont want goals disallowing for players in an "offside" position on the opposite side of the pitch so I can see why the rule is applied the way it is as it should make it less open to different interpretation. Rooney didnt move and attempt to play the ball so as he didnt block the keepers view either the goal should stand
