I find it really funny that van Persie's "title-clinching hat-trick" were actually all offside at one point of time (none of them should have stood). 1) build-up for the first one by Valencia, 2) just about a foot in behind the last defender (yet the finish was a volley of absolute quality, really brilliant at that, this fella), 3) his foot is ahead the two defenders. As long as any playable part of the body (hands not included) is in an offside position, the assistant should flag. Just poor refereeing, and giving more fuel for anti-United haters who claim United bought the FA over and the referees.
