Rick Posted November 28, 2020 Posted November 28, 2020 Milner holding his hamstring. Fucking hell. This is a pisstake. Brighton are already regretting signing Lallana. Shocking how fragile he is.
LFCMike Posted November 28, 2020 Posted November 28, 2020 I had a feeling something might happen to Milner with this being his third start in a week. FFS
Dr. Gonzo Posted November 28, 2020 Posted November 28, 2020 If all the players to have injured during an injury crisis... the guy who can play pretty much anywhere is a bad player to have out.
Storts Posted November 28, 2020 Posted November 28, 2020 Superb tackle by White, never a foul or a yellow. Glad that’s been disallowed because would have been so harsh
LFCMadLad Posted November 28, 2020 Posted November 28, 2020 This is just getting silly now. We are getting fucked over time and time again.
Burning Gold Posted November 28, 2020 Posted November 28, 2020 Any sort of contact is a foul now then
LFCMadLad Posted November 28, 2020 Posted November 28, 2020 I take it the powers that be dont want another runaway winner this year. Thats the only explanation for the decisions we are on the end of in almost every match. Fuck this shit.
Dr. Gonzo Posted November 28, 2020 Posted November 28, 2020 The officials in England should be shot into the sun
LFCMike Posted November 28, 2020 Posted November 28, 2020 I think it's a foul, clumsy from Robertson. The issue I have is that they keep changing the parameters over what is a clear and obvious error. We've seen plenty of more obvious fouls that have not resulted in a penalty being given

Rick Posted November 28, 2020 Posted November 28, 2020 I’m more annoyed at the Salah offside call than the penalty. I agree with Mike that I’m pissed off that the VAR can’t decide what’s clear and obvious anymore. That’s the point of it.

I think it’s a foul, it’s so clumsy and we’ve actually seen a few of these sorts of fouls given this season. However as you say there as usual is no real consistency over the rules of when to intervene - do think it’s probably a pen though

We've seen plenty of more obvious fouls that have not resulted in a penalty being given The problem is there is no consistency ever. West Brom should have had one at Old Trafford last week when their player got tapped on the shin by Fernandes but that was adjudged soft. No different really here. Personally for me, it's a sad indictment that we classify that as a foul in the first place, let alone a penalty in this day and age. I don't want to hear about the 'technical' factor of it, we are letting the game get far too soft for my liking if we accept these coming together's as the new norm. It's actually becoming embarrassing.
Dr. Gonzo Posted November 28, 2020 Posted November 28, 2020 That’s a foul in the same way that I’m the pope. I’m not the pope
Danny Posted November 28, 2020 Posted November 28, 2020 If anything it just highlights how big the margin for error is in football
Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted November 28, 2020 Subscriber Posted November 28, 2020 They abandoned the "clear and obvious" line about 3 weeks after they started using VAR because they decided they want to interfere more in pursuit of perfect consistency. They just dropped the phrase overnight, didn't announce anything because they didn't want us to notice.
Burning Gold Posted November 28, 2020 Posted November 28, 2020 Yeah, fuming. The penalty is... incredibly soft for me. Robertson's kicked him but he hasn't impeded him in any way. If that's a foul now then fine, but you're going to be giving fouls every 30 seconds. We used to say things like "you'd get given that foul in the middle of the pitch" when there was a penalty not given, but it's the other way around now. You'd never dream of giving that outside the box As I've said above, I think the Salah offside is wrong because of where they've measured it from on the defender. Just can't see how his right foot is the furthest back part of him from that body position As for the game, we looked completely disjointed again. We've got 3 players on the pitch who, with the best will in the world, just aren't good enough for Liverpool and an entire defence and midfield unit who've barely played together. Nothing to do with injuries though. Not one bit. I would've liked to see Henderson from the start, and thought we looked a lot better with him on, but that probably wasn't an option as he's only just come back. Difficult to question the team selection when you don't know what you can get out of certain players
The Artful Dodger Posted November 28, 2020 Posted November 28, 2020 All decisions correct for me, some people struggling to adjust to how football is now. Id love footy to be how it is in a Sunday league game but it just isn’t.
Subscriber Mel81x+ Posted November 28, 2020 Subscriber Posted November 28, 2020 Can't argue the decisions because its done and dusted. Nat Phillips started shaky and got a lot better as time went on. As much as I'd like Mino to be a solution he just slowed everything down and at times was found clueless. But, he will get more gametime and I really hope he does improve.
