Nah, I disagree on offside. If a player is bodily in line with the defender, then he's on as far as I'm concerned. He gains no realistic competitive advantage from the tip of his big toe being millimetres beyond a defender's knee in a freeze-frame, and the net result of pretending otherwise is fewer goals overall, which is self-defeating for the sport as a whole.
