Daylight Offside means a player is not yet offside if his*her rearmost body part is still at the same level as the foremost body part of the opponent.

It is not completely nonsensical as this is about football economic, commercial aspects. It's about more advantage for strikers because: more goals -> more spectators -> more revenue -> better players -> more goals -> 🤑

As with every change to the offside rule since 1866.

Arsène Wenger's idea of Daylight Offside is back in the media and false expectations and false facts are circulating again.

➡️ Daylight Offside - like "same level" or "thicker calibrated lines" - only shifts the point of discussion about marginal offside a few millimetres towards the goal.

Severe discussion in the Bundesliga (m). My very brief opinion: Can be given (there was a touch), but is rather unusual. But, as @CollinasErben already wrote: No matter the decision, there are discussions. Either "wasn't enough for a red card" or "Bayern Bonus".
And since I am a historian, I just want to show you a page from the book „Football Chronicle“.
