Virgil van Dijk offside by the new point of handball on the arm, rather than the armpit.
Last season, this would have been onside.
Note the red line doesn't go to the elbow. It carries through and that's the calculation point.

Clarification on Pickford/Van Dijk.... we all get one wrong now and then.
Pickford could have been sent off (probably should have been).
Had it confirmed that the VAR, David Coote, did NOT check for a red card. Appears he was too concerned with the offside. #EVELIV

The VAR, David Coote, should have checked there was a genuine attempt to play the ball by Jordan Pickford.
But after the offside was cleared, the check was complete and play restarted. There was no review for a possible red card against the keeper for the challenge. 🙄 #EVELIV

The Sadio Mane offside is the same as Virgil van Dijk. It would not have been offside last season.
As the upper arm is now legal to play the ball, an attacker is calculated slightly further forward (arm not armpit).
Don't shoot the messenger... #EVELIV
