I thought only the referee had such a device, because why would the linesman need one when the guy who makes the final decision already has one? But even ignoring that, you do realize that every close offside situation could also be called guesswork on the linesman's part, right? That doesn't mean that the linesman has no say whatsoever or that he can't be right by guessing. |
And arent ofsides the most problematic thing in football ? They do guess a lot, its screwed up to ask a linesman to follow a sprintting Cristiano Ronaldo and at the same time pay attention to a sprintting Marcelo that may or may not pass the ball to the first player all the while Gerard Piquet run up and down the field marking both these players trying to figure if Cristiano is already past Piquet or not when Marcelo finally decides to pass the ball. Somekind of tech has to be used for ofsides as well, maybe never call an ofside and if the paly ends in a goal check to see if the goal was legal or not via instant replay I dont realy know.
