El Guepardo
Rafael Van Der Vaart
I’m annoyed as we were too defensive and didn’t impose ourselves on the game. We have the attacking threats to do Liverpool damage and yet didn’t bother to leave our half for most of the first 45 minutes. This was our chance to put down a marker, to create a gap at the top of the table, and we fudged it up. To add insult to that...VAR only served to help Liverpool again. How VAR reviewed the goal and decided that there was nothing wrong is beyond me. The goal should have been ruled out but wasn’t...why?! Now we are 3 points behind with a tough match at the weekend to come. I really was starting to believe that we could win the league. The second 45 minutes against Palace, and today showed me that it’s not going to happen. May as well accept it’s just a fight for a top 4 place and forget any hope otherwise.
