Ref doing his best to help the bindippers, ridiculous amount of time added on

Wonder if Slot will come up with a new excuse, or will he stick with the "they didn't play how we wanted them to, and roll over and let us score at will" excuse.

Credit Keith Andrews. They’re obviously a very well run club but no one gave him a chance at the start of the season. No experience, losing some of his better players and stepping into mightily big shoes. He’s doing very, very well.

We should've gone for him, the real brains behind Brentford all along

Am I the only one that loves McCoist as a commentator? You can just feel his love and enthusiasm for the game.

Here's a bit of Joe Cole's brain cell to take the edge off.

Champions (self) elect Liverpool a point behind Yanited

 

[Robbo]

Four league losses in a row for Liverpool, must be a while simce the last time?

Edit: Last happened in 2021, apparently, so not that long ago...

Why not give him the whole cell? Joe Cole doesn't use it anyway.

If they go 5, does Slot start to grow hair?

I love Liverpool losing, but can't help but feel anxious about this being the season where scum actually wins it. fudge sake. Come on the Erling Haaland-team.

I think he's a clown shoe. Alistair McAllister is good though.

No, I love him too - by the way, Fletch.

It’s Arsenal or City now, no one will get close to them. Some people on here predicted Arsenal will finish 4th this season! I can’t even bring myself to watch their games. Gabriel is my most hated player at the moment. Horrible player.

Seemed to be some dodgy referring today.

How the hell did Liverpool get 10 mins injury time? However, the pen against them was fairly weak… but on the flip side thought Salah could/should have seen red (can you stamp on a foot or not?).

Also Luke Shaw clearly fouled before Utds third goal (without that they might have drawn).

On a positive note: Danny Welbeck (at 34!) scores that incredible free kick ! The likes of which we’ve hardly seen in a decade.

Footballs a funny old game.

Well, he's had 34 years to practice it! Thought it was incredibly poor goalkeeping. Was virtually in the middle of the goal.

Oh and by the way, why was Welbeck scoring fk positive?
