In the midst of one of the most pulsating halves in the history of Premier League football – Gary Neville managed to forget the offside law. <\/p>\n
Tottenham and Chelsea shared a red card, penalty, two-footed tackles, elbows and four disallowed goals in north London with Dejan Kulusevski on target before Cole Palmer squeezed home a penalty. <\/p>\n
Between the goals as well as Christian Romero's red card, Son Heung-min thought he had made it two after expertly prodding home from Brennan Johnson's cross before a VAR check.<\/p>\n

Although the replay made it clear to viewers that the South Korea skipper was off – Manchester United icon Neville admitted he was initially looking at the arm of the defender.<\/p>\n
The former right-back said: "Is it this one where he is offside or is it this one? Or is it neither? Here we go, let the fun begin.<\/p>\n
"My initial look on both angles is that it looks onside on both, but it might be a Chelsea defender\u2019s hand that keeps him onside. It\u2019s the shoulder, yes it\u2019s off. But it\u2019s close, very close."<\/p>\n

One fan said in response: "How is Gary Neville giving analysis on offside calls and VAR when he thinks a hand keeps someone onside lol."<\/p>\n
A second added: "Gary Neville thinking the hand can be offside…" A third continued: Gary Neville forgetting that a defenders hand isn\u2019t counted for offside lines."<\/p>\n
