His knee is in offside. They should check that.

 

[djp82]

Where’s the check ?? That’s gonad*s

 

[Rorschach]

That's laughable if true..the only defence for no pen was that it struck the City players hand albeit there wasn't much he could do.

fudge sake. 2-0.

What planet are you going to?

 

[paxtonwolf]

Anfield is City's Kryptonite.

They fall apart there more than we do

 

[fernadez]

Liverpool prove the point so well about how it's not necessary to play football in this league to win games.

Poch should take fudging notes.

 

[nayimfromthehalfwayline]

I don't see that. The similarities are only that they are inconsistent, which may be your point.

Delofeu can be quite brilliant on occasion. A good sub when you are chasing a game I would think.

Kind of.

Townsend is capable of brilliance on occasion. Has all the skills to do quite remarkable things. Yet ultimately lacks the one thing to bring it all together - that bit between the ears.

I think DEolefeu is very much the same. Quite brilliant, on occasion as you say - but thats it. In no way consistent, or reliable, and far to much of a single minded/lone wolf type.

I actually think the comparison with Townsend, for better and worse, stands up really well.

 

[Daisuk]

Why don't they even check that? Var is so inconsistent it's ridiculous.

 

[Cochise]

What a fudging goal. The commentator calls it a counter attacking goal, but it wasn't they just managed to get Robertson on his bike in space. The Liverpool front three had pinned the City back four within the width of the penalty box.

 

[djp82]

They spend ages checking everything Salad looked offside . Checked in 2 seconds ? That’s total guff unreal

 

[DeanoAustin]

What planet are you going to?

Any planet that will take me. Anywhere has to be better than a planet where that shower of sanctimonious, dole loving, bindipping victims are league champions.

 

[paxtonwolf]

Had it not been for the mistake at Villa last week, I would have started thinking VAR had been introduced purely for Liverpool's benefit.

If Sheffield;s goal was ruled out yesterday, that Salah goal should have been chalked off too

 

[Rorschach]

Do they check all goals or just non-Liverpool ones?

I am dreading work tomorrow morning. They will booking a day off work next May for the title celebrations

No clearer handball will you see
His face says it all
Var farce again

I remember when we scored goals like that. Our current team would just be crossing the halfway line now

It changed the direction of the ball.
I don't get why play wasn't stopped to check.
In the time they might have been checking, Liverpool scored, so they didn't want to pull it all the way back. imo.

They can though
They did it in Germany
Brought the game back 90 seconds for a penalty

Liverpool are getting Leicester levels of luck. Their name is on it this year.

 

[StephenH]

The EPL version of VAR is broken imho

 

[DeanoAustin]

City are dreadful at the back.
