A host of new rules will come into affect in the Premier League and Champions League next season
Under the new regulations, goals scored or created with the use of a handball will not stand, regardless of whether the action is considered accidental or not.Another change will see handball be given any time the ball comes into contact with a players arm when it is extended beyond a natural silhouette to make themselves unnaturally bigger.These rules were announced in March, but they came into the spotlight again after the Champions League final, where Liverpool were awarded a controversial penalty in the opening 25 seconds against Tottenham.The ball appears to strike Moussa Sissoko’s armBT SPORT2
The ball appears to strike Moussa Sissoko’s arm
Fans widely disagreed with the decision to award a handball against Moussa Sissoko, as the ball first hit the Spurs midfielders chest before coming into contract with his arm.Reds star Sadio Mane was also accused of aiming for Sissokos raised arm, as he attempted to tell team-mate Kieran Trippier to show the winger down the line.And Gray not only disagrees with the new rule change, he believes more players will start targeting opponents arms in order to win penalties and free-kicks.I think thats pretty ludicrous, the Sunderland legend said on Tuesdays Jim White show. If you think about it, players who get in the box, if theyve got no chance of getting past the defender theyre going to try and flick the ball up to and play it off a players hand.Thats completely wrong, its out of order!And I would argue with anybody who would stay to me that in a standing jump without using your arms you can jump higher. Its a natural movement!If Im trying to stop a cross, Im making myself big as I possibly can so they think, I cant get the ball passed him here.Thats what you do, thats the game!Football's top transfers from the 2019 summer transfer window so far The ball is coming to your head and you have to jump for it, what are you doing with your arms? Are you going to put them behind your back?Absolutely not! If you dont think you can get that high without using your arms for leverage, youre going to miss it.Thats not football!One thing that worries me; weve got 20 chairman who have made the decision on VAR and maybe even the handball rule.Why arent they asking players? Why arent they asking referees?
