       Andre Marriner : West Ham vs Man Utd 
   DIR By: dave26

       A very good performance by Marriner personally I think he had
       got better in the last few years his performances have been very
       good and rarely attracts controversy
       Yesterday’s game good fitness his foul detection was spot on and
       played some good advantages, for the Pogba goal I attach no
       blame to Marriner, and if I’m correct in my assumption that the
       AR Simon Long would have have been looking out for a possible
       offside soon as the ball left Henderson’s foot therefore it
       would have been just unlucky that he missed it go out therefore
       if that is indeed the case I attach no blame to Simon Long
       either

       He physically could not be looking in two places - which were at
       a 90 degree angle to each other - at the same time.
       I am sure if Andre had taken the word of the West Ham United
       manager and awarded the throw-in, OGS and his crew would have
       been cool with that ..... :o

       Surely a linesman is there to see if the ball goes out of
       play......it was blatantly out of play.....I used to run the
       line at semi pro level and would be horrified if I missed that.
       Where was var when you actually needed it...........rather than
       getting involved when you don't??

       So did I.  I am not sure which would horrify me more .....
       missing the ball out of play or missing an offside call
       resulting in a goal?  From memory, there were more of the latter
       than the former that worried me.

       Watching to see if the whole of the ball has crossed a line is
       hard enough but trying to adjudge it when the ball is sky high
       in the air is incredibly difficult. It was just about the
       hardest thing I found when I was actively lining.

       I can see why it happened, he's seen the keeper go long and
       immediately turns to go as he know how rapid the Man Utd
       forwards are.  From where Henderson hit the ball it would be
       extremely rare for it to go out and back in again, be he put so
       much whip on the ball it did just that.  It must have gone out
       given how much it curved and how close it landed to the
       touchline.
       Don't see how VAR could rule on it as there was no camera close
       to looking down the touchline and it would have been a guess
       even if it was an obvious guess.  I do wonder if the 4th
       official could have had any input as the ball must have gone
       over his head.

       Can they not put the offside lines longitudinally?

       Perhaps you're right about your (and my) day but there are no
       "linesmen" anymore!!!  As others have said, the Assistant
       Referee has far more to observe these days so an unfortunate
       change of viewpoint at an unfortunate moment is to be expected.
       However, I used to be quite adept at running backwards, keeping
       play in full view. IOs that discouraged/disallowed these days?

       Looked out to me, not Marriner's fault whatsoever.  Surely VAR &
       Simon Long could see the ball had swerved out?!  Changed the
       game in United's favour...

       They don't have cameras in the right places.  Plus the
       technology for offside is looking at players body parts that are
       on, or within 2 metres of, the ground.  As opposed to ball that
       is 10 metres in the air.
       Really nothing that VAR could have done here.
