Biggest change seems to be regarding the offside rule, that one is going to be very hard to call correctly.

How on earth do they prove "feigning injury" ? This just means players will go to even more lengths to feign injury, making longer stoppages, for fear of a FA conduct charge

New rules, but completely failed to be implemented at Anfield tonight.

Yeah shoulda been flagged offside, according to the new offside rule. As a Liverpool fan I won't complain much but it was very obvious.

They managed to get both the big decisions wrong tonight. If there was a system to check like in rugby it would have been reversed immediately. The game was stopped anyway

I honestly do believe that such mistakes even out over the course of the season, but the big clubs do get a bit more of those in their favour :mrgreen:
