We see more reds given that wouldn’t have been given pre-VAR. For incidents like this where it happens right in front of the ref and it’s 50-50 whether it’s a red I prefer a ref that lets the game flow rather than long VAR pause.

I’m sure you prefer a ref that doesnt send your players off lol.
Danny Posted November 12, 2023 Posted November 12, 2023 we need to switch to a 4-3-3 and try to put them under pressure
Subscriber Mel81x+ Posted November 12, 2023 Subscriber Posted November 12, 2023 What a rocket by Jota. Best goal of the game.
Danny Posted November 12, 2023 Posted November 12, 2023 Too easy now, lackadaisical defending and Liverpool are running away with it. Expect a 4/5-0 loss here.
Danny Posted November 12, 2023 Posted November 12, 2023 The one positive I’m getting from this is that Yarmolyuk looks class, exactly the type of drive and tight footwork we need
Reluctant Striker Posted November 12, 2023 Posted November 12, 2023 Maupay with a goal last week. Raul Jimenez with a first in a very, very long time this week.
Danny Posted November 12, 2023 Posted November 12, 2023 Frustrating half all in all. The two goals we conceded were sloppy and goals we shouldnt be conceding with a back 5. Salah shouldnt have that much space and as good as the shot was, Jota was given a free hit on goal. Not enough bodies closing him down. The game however was very much swung by what should have been a clear red at 1-0, completely changes the dynamic and we build a lot of pressure on them with an extra man. Overall even though we’ve been sloppy at both ends of the pitch I can’t fault the desire to win, 3-0 down in injury time and we’re still fighting for something. Liverpool have been good, 2 fairly easy goals that their structure helps create and they have the players to take advantage. Van Dijk was really good and Allison prevented us from scoring about 2 goals in ten minutes. The bromance between Klopp and Frank seems to have continued post-match even with the red/lack of one.
Rick Posted November 12, 2023 Posted November 12, 2023 Fantastic result. I have been travelling so haven’t seen/heard anything other than what’s been put on here, but delighted with that. Up to second in the table with that 3rd goal going in. Nice viewing, let’s see if Chelsea can cause an upset today.
Bluewolf Posted November 12, 2023 Posted November 12, 2023 Not expecting anything from this but then again we have done well against the likes of Liverpool, Arsenal and Spurs where I also didn't expect anything so might end up surprised...
Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted November 12, 2023 Subscriber Posted November 12, 2023 Soft penalty for me.
Rick Posted November 12, 2023 Posted November 12, 2023 Just now, RandoEFC said: Soft penalty for me. Haaland pulls Cucurella’s shirt first but gets a penalty. Just another weekend with VAR in the premier league.
Inverted Posted November 12, 2023 Posted November 12, 2023 Clear foul on Cucurella. The reason Cucurella is wrong side of Haaland is that he was pulled around by the arm. Surely a textbook case where VAR could help the ref by giving them some context on the situation?
Whiskey Posted November 12, 2023 Posted November 12, 2023 It's technically a penalty but you see that every week and it goes unpunished. Bit of a clanger for VAR in what is becoming a catalogue of dodgy calls from the PGMOL.
Whiskey Posted November 12, 2023 Posted November 12, 2023 Thiago Silva equalises against Anthony Taylor, 1-1.
Bluewolf Posted November 12, 2023 Posted November 12, 2023 Nice... makes up for that silly penalty call
Bluewolf Posted November 12, 2023 Posted November 12, 2023 Going to be an interesting second half... could have had a 3rd if Jackson had been more clinical with his chance

Bluewolf Posted November 12, 2023 Posted November 12, 2023 All the excitement has now been drained away...
Bluewolf Posted November 12, 2023 Posted November 12, 2023 You have to hand it to Haaland.. his desire and commitment to score is superb..
