Sky are spot on asking why he was asked to go to the screen in the first place.

Hate to say it but right decision, goalie wasn’t obstructed

Well. Silva did jostle the keeper prior to the header.

Good - Arsenal fans are (at the moment) the most unbearable of the big 6 fans.
The reason they have had 3 Red cards is because they are coached to cheat.
But their fans act like there's some kind of conspiracy.
Hopefully the Arsenal implosion continues, City win the league by miles but get it taken off them for PSR breaches,.
Liverpool end up as unsatisfactory champions, which Arsenal bitch about forever as it should have been given to them in the past 2 seasons.

On radio they are offering a different view ..Silva backs into the goalie who has to push him out the way and is inhibited from coming for the cross …offside
Well the game was essentially over, so VAR may have said something like 'we think the goal can stand, but it's a decision you should make', and time wasted/momentum lost is irrelevant at that point. Perhaps better for the ref to make the decision.
They're looking at it again now and talking about the nudge on the keeper, but IMO he's not in an offside position before the header, and after the header, he's no longer interfering.
Wasn’t offside at the time of the jostle though. When the header comes in he’s ducking out of the way.

Don’t think Sturridge (I think it’s him!)realises he’s only offside once Stones heads it. More pundits not knowing the rules. 100% a goal.

That is going to hurt for Wolves, and the manner of that defeat can only benefit us for next week.
And that wasn't a goal. Bernardo has backed into the keeper whilst in an offside position, affecting Sa's ability to come for the ball and his abilty to react to the header.

But when Silva backs into him, he's not offside yet, because the shot hasn't been taken.

Agreed
He's allowed to do that.
Not in an offside position until Stones heads it.
Incorrect. He's not offside from the corner.

It would have been a travesty had the goal been ruled out but as it was City you were praying for it.
Sky pundits, Wolves manager and fans are ridiculously clutching at straws now. He may be offside but nowhere near the keepers eyeline and the contact from Silva DOES not effect the keepers ability to save the header. He's fully set and is just beaten by pace. We are now in danger of trying to create controversy where none exists.
