Match Day Thread Liverbird Reds v Cockeral Whites

Possibly not but it's not for the referees to judge what a player is thinking is it?

It's irrelevant anyway, that penalty was saved.

 

Wrong, a deflection would result in offside, it has to be a deliberate play of the ball.

 

The gooners are so far back that I think we could wish for them to have 3 points at the expense of Spurs. For us, we just have to match or better every Spurs result to the end of the season and we are very likely going to be safe (into top 4)

 

Meh, point still stands.

I agree with Jimmy that it should revert to the old school black and white rule. **** this interfering with play bollocks (and yes, I'm fully aware Salah’s goal wouldn't have stood under that rule)

 

We defended too deep. Lucky to get a draw.

 

the interfering with play bollocks is the old school rule .
I can't deal with the idea the CF can stand off side but the ball played to winger who is onside who the crosses to CF to sore when he could never have got there from an onside position.

 

Hell of a game, not good for the blood pressure.

Can't argue with a point but thought we'd got away with all 3.

 

Without being negative i am more than happy with a point.
The saints game is now the important one.

 

Yep, let the Gooners and Spurs go at it and make sure we get 3 points.

 

This is our equivalent of going shopping isnt it

 

It’s a shame about the second penalty because VVD was immense today.

 

Just wish we had the balls to be calm & play the ball around in 2nd half though by the looks of it that may just be down to fitness in some of them

oh FB's - TAA looked better yet the danger mainly came down his side was this due to lack of cover or coming too central

 

This is the second game Klopp has allowed our opponents back in a big game.

City pulls out Can and Salah inviting trouble we almost throw it away. Allowed City to push up 10 meters up

Switches to a back 3 today when the back 4 was holding it's own. Even though Mane was not having the best of games it is good to keep him on to keep Trippier occupied.

That Wanyama equalizer just shows the chaos the back 3 brought. It should have been a straight swap of Wij and Ox for Hendo and Milner

 

The old school rule (depending how old you are) was if your offside at the time of the pass, irrelevant of if that pass was near you (within reason), it was offside.

 

Not sure if you'd have seen the tag before the game started so....

... Lovren & VVD, no Matip #calledit

 

@moreinjuredthanowen

 

Oh for **** sakes, not this again.

 

Spurs were there for the taking, especially in first half.

Just can’t believe our negative we were in the second half.

Imagine how good we would be if we had a proper midfield!

 

He does my head in when he gives the "what the **** are they doing" look

 

Yeah I liked it.
