[Daisuk]

I hope your right just like Tel

Give these guys time, and a system with a chance to shine, and they will, in my opinion. Incredible talents.

Any ref gets sent to the screen you know it’s going to be a red

 

[Bedfordspurs]

Seen it back and real time…. Not a red
Slow mo… clear red

 

[SpurMeUp]

Excited by this side and our play. Quite a few times we were through and couldnt get the final ball right. By promising. The spirit was good. The confidene in the final third still missing of course, but that will come.

 

[Baleforce]

To me, VVD exemplifies the double standard and inconsistency that exists in PGMOL.

Over a long period, he hasn't been refereed to the same scrutiny as most PL players

Nothing to do with today's decision.

goes for that whole fudging club, they get away with everything

 

[scaramanga]

Have you ever played football?

VVD’s sock was ripped FFS.

Of course I have.

If I'd done that to a winger I'd have been in all kinds of brick with my manager for my reducer being too soft.

 

[Bedfordspurs]

Any ref gets sent to the screen you know it’s going to be a red

Yep
Worryingly it’s the game being re refereed every time

 

[glasgowspur]

It's been a terrible game, almost a pre season friendly pace.

 

[SpurMeUp]

Any ref gets sent to the screen you know it’s going to be a red

Exactly, and its only refered to the screne when not clear. So its a nonsense.

 

[scaramanga]

It's was a clear red card.

Studs up alone is worthy of a red, let alone when you're nowhere near the ball.

Studs up in a challenge maybe. Dangling a leg out with no pressure is not the same thing.

 

[DubSpur]

Time will tell. Hopefully I'm wrong.
As it stands, Ndombele did more in our shirt.
Simons hasn't shown anything, outside of one or two performances, to suggest anything else.

Ndombele was a lazy clam that wasted his talent. Xavi is working hard, is still young, and settling into a new team that isn't exactly setting the world on fire

 

[MartyFunkhouser]

For a team thats spent half a billion in the summer, this mob look terrible

 

[scaramanga]

Always have done.

Get away with everything then blame the police and newspapers.

 

[balesleftboot]

Could still get something here. They've been brick recently and this puts more pressure on them to win now.

 

[ricky2tricky4city]

Annoying as Liverpool look as toothless as us

 

[Kandi1977]

pundits on Norwegian TV, both English and Norwegians, adamant that's never a red card. No force, no malice, no intent and it's just clumsy.

If that had been a bin dipper the commentators and refs would have called it a "forward's tackle" and never mentioned it again.

The way they were sitting in and leaving Romero on the ball wasn’t something I was expecting. Rarely seen a Liverpool side as pedestrian. clams.

 

[SpurMeUp]

Double the weight can dyke standing on Simon’s doesn’t even get a review. VD rolled around. Ref got it right with a yellow. Then var makes a mess of it with the flawed on field review which always equals a red. When the ref had made the right choice in a yellow in the context of the game.

On English tv once one says something everyone else just agrees, they're like sheep, not one independent thought between the lot of them. Keane is probably the only one that will voice his opinion no matter what anyone else thinks.
