I just hope he doesn't use it as an excuse.

Arsene Wenger wants to introduce a, quote, daylight rule, which means a player is only offside if he's entirely beyond the defender.

The FA and UEFA oppose this, and so does former assistant referee Darren Kan, who, again,

unless you're a refereeing nerd.

Hi, Dale Johnson.

Or worse, an assistant refereeing nerd.

You might not know who this man is.

People are really into that.

People have a fetish.

He's probably the only assistant referee anybody's ever heard of in this country.

And he's been at World Cups, highly respected.

And he gave a very good take, Sam, about why this is a really bad idea.

From an assistant referee's point of view... Which is all that matters here because these are the people who hold the flag up.

It'd be the end of Hansi Flick as well.

No, it would make for bad football.

But also like, and look, Wenger says, oh, this way we get more goals.

None of us is six years old.

Like some people might be, but six-year-olds obviously are.

But it's not exciting.

I need the ball over the top, man running onto it, the keeper beating the keeper.
