The Havertz one looked a red

It must be just me, infact I'm sure it probably is just me as everybody else seems to be giving it great ratings, but Bodies on Netflix has to be hands down the most confusing thing I've watched in a long time.

Honestly, I really wanted to like it but ultimately it's a no from me and that's after sticking it out to the end.

I watched the first 3 last week and couldn't get into it. Might go back to it at some point. 

Watched the second series of Time on iPlayer the other night. That was good.

Has Neville blamed the Old Trafford roof yet?

Manchester United have lost 8+ of their first 15 games in a season for the first time since 1962-63 (9), while they've lost five of their first 10 at home for the first time since 1930-31.

Impressed with Quansah again

Isn't he the ones who's parents got kidnapped? Can't believe he's playing with  that going on

Nunez is fast becoming on of my favourites. Frustrating at times, but his talent is undeniable. 

He's brilliant. 

Was great then, the Bournemouth fans cheering his mis control and he goes and does that. 

Bournemouth been the better side second half and deserved their equaliser. Nunez puts us back in front with a brilliant strike

Liverpool XI: Kelleher, Gomez, Matip, Quansah, Tsimikas, Elliott, Jones, Endo, Salah, Szoboszlai, Gakpo.

Subs: Adrian, Van Dijk, Konate, Nunez, Mac Allister, Jota, Gravenberch, Scanlon, Alexander-Arnold.

Penalty to Saudi

Great assist from Nunez for Gravenberch  4-1

Not right at all. I think there's been extensive research into gambling addiction as a result of how much it is visible and accessible in the sport and it's quite damning. Not enough is done to prevent players gambling, let alone fans.

It's the same as Toney. Played a lot in the Skybet football league, and had plenty of shirt sponsors that were gambling companies. 

It's unbelievable hypocritical. 

Are they stopping all kinds of gambling sponsorship (I don't know whether this was just Premier League or across the leagues) in a couple of years or is it just the shirt sponsorships?

3-1 Nunez.

Gravenberch having a brilliant game

I know we're spolit with Alisson but so many times you see Kelleher make it easy for the striker. Stuck to his line and making himself smaller

2-1 Endo, great header 

10 month ban confirmed

Agree with that. 

Never rated Pawson. He's in that arrogant band of refs that love to make the game all about him instead of letting the teams and football do the talking. 

He got quite a lot wrong and that's nowhere near the first time he's had a mare. 

Agreed. Pawson has always been a cunt. How he didn't give the handball straight away is beyond me.

I think a lot of refs use VAR now to stop them making big decisions.

There was two other possible penalties. The first handball one wasn't I don't think but there was one on Jota just before half time that looked like it was. Not seen a replay cos they didn't show it but I thought it was at the time.

Not going to deny that Konate might have been lucky. Wasn't the same sort of challenge that Young got his second yellow for though so can see why the ref didn't see it as a second yellow. Tsimikas was lucky not to be booked for basically the same challenge Young made for his first yellow

Just remembered the Patterson on Diaz was a penalty as well. 

But Livarpool

Not watching but they've had an opposing player sent off, got away with a red card themselves and have now been given a penalty and they still think there's a conspiracy against them .

Pep hoodwinked the entire country to get the keepers to think they’re an outfield player, from 2nd all the way down to Sunday league. It’s extremely impressive. There’s probably 2-3 outside Ederson/Allison in the country good enough.

Who are the 2-3 outside of them? They all seem shit haha

Surely got to be given that

A nightmare for us. I don’t trust Kostas

I wonder if we see Gomez used there at times while Robertson is out? The LB role has changed a bit with TAA's role changing. Like you, I don't really trust Tsimikas defensively and Robertson has been more about staying back a bit more and tucking into a back three when Trent moves into midfield. Can't remember the last time we saw Gomez play LB but it's a position he started off in for us when he first signed and if he's effectively becoming a third CB I don't see why he can't play there. Klopp's words today suggest he's not solely relying on Tsimikas anyway.

Only way a protest will work is it it's worldwide not just local. You need an empty stadium and nobody to buy anything related to the club on a global scale. But this will never happen.

You will never get that as you say, you'll never get it on a local scale either. There will always be someone to take a season ticket holders place at a club like Man Utd and you only have to look at one of those protests the other year (during lockdown I think) where they're calling for a boycott of sponsors and there's a load of United fans sporting their brand new replicas.

I'm surprised Anfield hasn't been selected. I know Bramley-Moore Dock is/will be brand new, but it's also note like Anfield is a dive given all the new development and expansion. 

Glad Villa Park has been chosen. Am I right in thinking that'd be the only English stadium on this list that was also host at Euro 96? (not counting Wembley as that's obviously been rebuilt). 

 

Pitch is too small to host UEFA finals and internationals I think

Kovacic gets away with something Jones got sent off for last weekend. In fact, his was worse and he made no contact with the ball at all. Hateful these referees I swear. 

Because the ref didn't go to the monitor and see a still image of it
