If he blocks the movement of an opponent then the the offence is obstruction, not him being offside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obstruction isn’t a specific offence any more but if you’re in an offside position when you do it it will be given as offside. The threshold for an offside obstruction is lower than that for a foul in normal play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
