Arsenal’s injury depleted team are getting there. Only goal difference is keeping them out of the Champions League places. West Ham were not able to hold on to the form that brought them briefly to the top of the table. Sam Allardyce was justifiably narked when Alex Song’s first half goal was justified.
Other goals have been allowed with players who have been in similar offside positions – because they,like these,were not interfering with the goalie’s line of sight.
