Ask Lovren to defend in a 1v1 scenario, and he kacks his pants. He misjudged the flight of the ball then panicked and then puts his hands on him. It was soft but he handed it to them.
my take on that we threw the game by not taking our chances . my first thought on the pen was Calvert- Lewin jumped into Lovren & as far as i'm concerned the slo mo from behind the goal shows it pretty conclusively but by then the game should have been done & dusted . i need a drink and thankfully the antibiotics i'm on let me
#bbcsalford "Everton, if they have any sense, surely can't feel pride or satisfaction from that result...!" Enjoy Fat Sam and the complete irrelevance of your club under Moshiri
Rooney still had to score... It wasnt the refs fault you didnt finish us off you were shocking infront of goal...
Hey I've slagged it but what else could you do? Not the first struggling team to set up like that and know one of our defenders will give you that one chance. You took it. Bitter sweet I'm sure. At start of season you must have thought this would be the year you came to us and won....properly. Not a Wum btw ...i thought you lot would be good this year.
The lad made the most of the contact, but he'd have been a complete berk not to. Once Lovren pushes him the ref has no choice.
I don't think it was a penalty. The attacking player wasn't playing the ball. Absolute madness for Lovren to put his hand on his back mind. Never mind, at least our best moment of the match wasn't a cleverly won penalty Fat Sam needs to buy some pace in January or you'll have a boring run in. Oh, and is as weird for you as it is for me to see Sammy Lee on the Everton bench?
This club will never achieve anything when we persist with such mediocre players like Lovren Hendo and Milner. We will always continue to fall short and fans wonder why. These 3 need to be binned ASAP.
The Salah header was the clearest other chance. Fat Sam was always going to play this way. We needed creativity so was amazed when I saw our Brazilian duo on the bench. Poor team selection.
How can the Everton player jump on Lovren when he was running forward? It was a soft penalty but I cannot see the player being done for cheating. This is the type of penalty the likes of shearer, lineker and Owen want strikers to get when they get contact from behind.
Salah was tiring to be fair. It's not started with the Fab Four that he should be shot for. its Christmas. I'm surprised Lovren didn't wrap his gift up!!
He didn't push him, he had his hand on him. Not the same thing. It was a dive. **** me, even Phil Neville, who hates us as much as anyone in the world said it was never a pen. As someone has already pointed out, if that was given against you you'd be livid.
Watch the Slow mo. C-L leans across into Lovren looking to make contact and as soon as he feels Lovren's hand on his shoulder/back he falls to the ground. Lovren is still a muppet for putting his hand on him and giving C-L the chance to dive.
