Wood and the offside rule
Constantly offside , our goal today shown on MOTD shouldn't have stood as he was offside , pretty sure he was offside for the goal on Wednesday too what is it with this lad just not up to the premier league !

Re: Wood and the offside rule
He was in the area, offside, but became surrounded by three BHA players and didn’t touch the ball. GOAL for me.
Your point is correct though he has no understanding of the law or where he is in relation to defenders. Barnes isn’t much better.

Re: Wood and the offside rule
Few strikers are Alli was off too today. MOTD banged on about a possible offside but ignored comment about Barnes' decapitation in their box in the second half. Hard to see how Wood starts ahead of Vokes

Re: Wood and the offside rule
Down to teach his strikers the offside rule. It's been a massive problem in his time here with Gray before him.

Re: Wood and the offside rule
He wasn't penalised for being in a marginal offside' position as he didn't play or touch the ball. It could be argued that he interfered with an an opponent but that in my opinion would have been harsh.
Re: Wood and the offside rule
The offside rule is puzzling these days tbf. I thought the Arsenal goal should have stood yesterday.

Re: Wood and the offside rule
Certainly not offside yesterday. Nowhere near the ball or the Brighton keeper. Was about as active in the play as Joe Hart.
A very good photo on BBC website of the play as Cork shoots, and Wood could not be considered active by any stretch of the imagination. Wish I was technically able to put it on here.

Re: Wood and the offside rule
I didn’t think that was when they were saying that he was offside. He looked offside when he challenged for the header (he didn’t get it) when the ball fell back to cork.

Re: Wood and the offside rule
He gets caught offside so often because he is too slow. Slow to react and slow in pace. I've been surprised how slow he's looked lately, but given a standing start I doubt there's a fullback in the whole league he could beat.
That just shows we don't play to his strengths, he isn't a target man, long balls forward are no use to him. He needs the wingers to get down to the corners and pull the balls back.
We should either start doing that, or get Sam on instead.

Re: Wood and the offside rule
Nothing unique to Wood. That’s how Dyche likes his strikers to play, all quite deliberate to keep testing the linesman.

Re: Wood and the offside rule
I can only imagine that Vokes must’ve been carrying a niggle and that Dyche just diddnt want to play him yesterday. Wood should’ve been hooked with 20 minutes to spare.
Re: Wood and the offside rule
Vokes is ineffectual

Re: Wood and the offside rule
Wood should be very rarely given offside because it is so infrequent at the moment that he is actually interfering with or positively impacting on play
Re: Wood and the offside rule
Is this the photo you are referring to? The offside was when the ball came over, before it was cleared to Cork.Claretincraven wrote:Certainly not offside yesterday. Nowhere near the ball or the Brighton keeper. Was about as active in the play as Joe Hart.

Re: Wood and the offside rule
Bloke is an absolute liability at the minute. Not getting close to scoring and could have cost us both goals we've scored this week. As said above, not really his fault because he clearly can't play as a target man. I've always thought he looks better with Barnes or Vokes up there doing his work for him but to be fair he's had them with him most of the time in his last few games and he's still been completely ineffectual.

It's been rare this season we've had so many in the box.
Wood - interfering with play? Never.

Re: Wood and the offside rule
I blame it on the away trip he had with the national side - he came back a different player.
Has anyone checked if he has a twin brother?

Re: Wood and the offside rule
Chris Wood scored with a very powerful header at West Ham. It's not that many weeks ago, is it?
Yes, our forwards could do with not being caught offside so often.
If VAR was in use yesterday Tarks goal might not have been awarded. On the other hand, perhaps we'd have got a pen with the overhead into Bards face. (Not that I expect VAR to get every decision right).

Re: Wood and the offside rule
Let's face it strikers playing along the line are the most likely in the team to get caught offside. Perhaps if we got the ball to them quicker and more accurately they wouldn't get caught offside so much.

Re: Wood and the offside rule
Dyche spoke a number of times last season that he doesn't mind his players getting caught offside as it keeps defenders on their toes - not too sure what he thinks of slow tracking back when a defence moves out while we are still attacking
