I don't think the goal should stand but I disagree with the rule and this is why - it creates a really grey area. According to the way the rule is generally interpretated I do think it should be given.
I guess had Ramsey connected with the ball then it would have been offside but for me the moment he started to run towards the ball he was interferring
Arsenal need to take one of their chances though!!
I would say although not touching the ball,Ramsay was interfering with play somewhat.?
"Interfering with an opponent. If an attacker interferes with an opponent by either preventing them from playing or being able to play the ball by clearly obstructing the opponent's line of vision or movements or making a gesture or movement which deceives or distracts an opponent, then they are offside."
By definition (law) he wasn't offside. Was handball by Sanchez mind!!!
Danny Murphy - "it doesn't matter if it's given or not, it's a goal".
Full of it today isn't he. Also said that it didn't matter if it was a foul or not as the player was trying (referring to an Ozil challenge on Hazard) WTF is he on about?

Personally don't think it's should have stood. But then again I don't think any Arsenal goal should stand.

I hate being right with these predictions. It's like a curse.
Chelsea average
Murphy a cnut
