A change in the offside regulation is being promoted by Arsene Wenger. A change that is capable of making football more aggressive and changing a lot in the sport.
In the webcast, Carrusel Deportivo, the revelation was made, listing all the evidence that exists so far. What are these?
In the proposal submitted by Alsatos, who for the last few years has been the director of football and development of the sport in FIFAsuggests the keeping offside, but in a different way.
Although initially there was information that he might be asking for his… end offside Wenger finally proposes his differentiation.
Now, according to Wenger’s… wishes, A player will be offside if his whole body is in front of that of the last defender. That is, with the bodies they have a gap between them!
Only then will it be considered offside a player, while in any other case it will be considered onside with the player in a normal position.
However, for this to happen, the technology. Initially, with chips on the balls, maybe with some chips on the players’ jerseys, and certainly with the use of on-field cameras.
First, this proposal of his Wenger should go through the IFAB. The international soccer body that makes decisions about the sport and its regulations. Once approved, it will then be forwarded to FIFA and its general assembly. If it is also approved there, then it will begin to be implemented as a pilot.
THE Wenger believes that in this way the regulation will be clearer and especially when a player will be considered offside or onside.
It is estimated that it will help to there should be no such confrontations in matches, and also to make football more aggressive.
