    He's so confounding, one minute he looks fat and misses clear open chances and then that.

    My favorite was when the ball was rolling towards him at the top of the box and he just tumbled over.

    No reason they shouldn't win multiple international tournaments, other than, you know, they're French.

    This is a good point, any doubts he will balloon ala Ronaldo (original) once he stops playing?

    Between that, offside (still no idea what counts as being involved in a play), NHL goaltender interference, and NFL's catch rules I'm lost. It really hurts my viewing experience

    Right, so if Monaco scores 1 today and wins next week 1-0 they'd still lose due to Juve's 2 away goals

    I believe he is talking the interpretation of the rule not his own understanding of it. We all know the Mancs get at least 5 goals gifted to them a season.

    No I mean when a guy is screening the goalie, clearly offside, and they allow a goal because he never touched it

    Ronaldo's first goal yesterday was off of a turnover caused by him pressuring a defender while he started offside

    Other guys get called off for dummying the ball while offside

    Not sure what you mean on Ronaldo's goal, he was onside for both crosses --> https://www.clippituser.tv/c/yrgxwe

    I would guess dummying counts as offside b/c the player is still making a play on the ball

    Ok agreed he is off on the first cross, but doesn't touch it, onside for the goalscoring cross

    Right, it's for him and the defender marking him is the one who clears it. But that's not involved?

    Of course there's a chance that the official thought he was involved but missed offside

    Watching yesterday's match. Buffon is so awesome. Besides my general disdain for Real, I'd love to see him hoist a CL trophy.
