Former head of Professional Game Match Officials Limited (PGMOL) has called for a radical shake-up of the offside rule to deliver more goals at the elite level - with only infringements inside the 18-yard line at risk of being ruled out.
Aston Villa were left incensed on Wednesday when they believed Bernardo Silva's goal to give Manchester City the lead should have been ruled out for offside.
City's Rodri was in an offside position when a ball was played over the top of the Villa defence but Tyrone Mings fumbled in possession which played the midfielder onside.
