I think they have done a really good job with it. It’s lightning fast compared to what the EPL does and doesn’t disrupt the pace of play.

Football, the most popular sport in the US, has dozens of highly subjective and technical calls. One plainly defined and objectively enforced rule is not effecting the popularity of soccer in the US.

Having a tight line and setting offside traps is part of the game. Often the call is made because a player is crossing the defensive line at a full sprint. So, although only a small part of the offensive player’s body is offside at the split second, the call can be the difference between an easy break and an over cooked pass. As a Chelsea supporter I know this all too well.
As long as the rule is objective, leave it alone.
The hockey analogy is inept because it is a much more crowded playing surface.

Being the goal keeper means nothing or else the keeper can just run up the field and make everyone offside.
Huh?

Nobody who says this gets an opinion. That includes in football.
