as soon as the goalkeeper plays it from a non-moving ball, that is in play.
And it's not difficult to rewrite that rule.
If you want to have this rule where the goalkeeper wants to pass it to the centre-backs and the forwards are outside the box, but then they can initiate it once that touch is taken.
If people want to do that,
to make the game as open and as entertaining as possible, and I believe that's why they did it.
They have to write the laws of the game in a manner which allows the referee to make a concrete decision here, not one that leaves everybody scratching their head, was it in, was it not, was the game restarted?
So I can understand why Hansi Flick was, and we saw his post-match interview, he was pretty furious.
Right then, Robbo, percentage chance?
You've got Koubassi out as well, don't forget.
He's got a suspension.
That back line anyway, certainly that centre-half partnership of Koubassi and Gerard Martin just doesn't fill me.
I mean, there's two experienced full-backs in Koundé and Cancelo, but is it...
Gerard Martin and Eric Garcia, does he step back in there or does Ronaldo Rujo step back in there, who's got the pace, but just doesn't play the high line very well, doesn't play the squeezing of the game very well.
No, I'm kind of about there.
I'm kind of about 60-40, but the way that Atletico Madrid have attacked this Barcelona defence in the last two or three games with Alvarez and Griezmann, who is picking out some great passes...
You could see Barca having to score four or five to get through, so I'm actually going to go for Atleti.
I mean, changing it to 3-5-2, basically, with Witts floating around,
basically meant he didn't have to tell Mo Salah he was dropped because he's been playing badly.
I'm dropping you because I'm not playing with any wide players.
And so it kept him a little bit more solid early on, but if Dembele had his shooting boots, was it Dewey the challenge for the penalty?
