The angles showed on the TV looked pretty clear. He looked onside. So difficult to tell though.I too would like to see the angle, and to not be allowed to see it as the team directly involved, I think he has a right to complain.

There has to be better angles. You guys all claimed all the angles were clear. I’ve yet to see one. I bet Cooper hasn’t either and it’s fair to ask.
I thought offside decisions were decided automatically this season and not subject to the vagaries of asst refs and VAR.
Yep the Champions League side.The Champions League side..
Despite having used it in the Euros this summer.It hasn't been introduced as yet as they're still testing it.
Which proves what a shit show it is. Anyone claiming that offside is a black and white decision, when that’s the angle they’re using, is full of shit. Farcical.This is the view they used apparently. Might be on, might be off. Looks a hell of a call to overrule the linesman actually.

Taking a download of that pic and zooming in, the ball looks like it was behind the line so therefore to answer my question earlier, Mateta was in front of the ball. There is a line showing JJ's foot but no line showing Mateta's position. I transposed the line from JJ to Mateta and from using that he was clearly offside, however one needs to really look along the line of the last defender to really know.This is the view they used apparently. Might be on, might be off. Looks a hell of a call to overrule the linesman actually.

I presume you're drawing from experience here?Go and support Chelsea. Just as easy to do that from Miles Away.
What were your views on the match, Joe?I presume you're drawing from experience here?
I haven't watched the full match replay yet so am not in a position to comment. Strangely though, I'm actually a fan of Cooper, too, and like you, think he'll do well for us eventually. I just don't get the amount of bile you spew on here. You are overly keen to salute yourself when something you predict comes true, but when you are called out on the reverse you become plain nasty to people. As much as it might upset, I'm not obsessed with you. I do find you an odd little fellow though so let's say I'm City Fan curious and leave it there.What were your views on the match, Joe?
You only ever seem to come on here to make pointless remarks, usually aimed at me (I actually think you’re a little obsessed), and never actually add your opinions about the football.
Whilst I disagree with many on here, at least they actually add some kind of value.
Yes. But that's not what happened.If we’d have had a shit first half, come in at half time 2-0 down, and then have a decent second half to come back to 2-2, we’d all be quite happy and praising the managers substitutions.
