    Thought that was a correct decision to let that stand.
    But come on Liverpool ffs, take the lead at a great time and let it go!

    Some positions in defence we would improve on with signings but as I said our tactics have played a big part in our failings. Today we saw far tighter lines and better pressing and our defence looked better.

    As I said we need some signings but our tactics have to improve.

  9. I was purposely loose with the stats, for comedic purposes, but my general point remains valid. You're in a mess, and you're just as likely to fail under Arteta as succeed.

    I understand you being shirty, but that's tough ****, after the years of abuse you gave us, when we were struggling in the quagmire of mid table obscurity to find the consistency to enable us to sustain success. You're getting it both barrels, I'm afraid.

    You're going to find that it isn't easy to do what Spurs did.

    Another VAR decision where a goal is chalked off because of the embossed club crest on the shirt, making the player offside.
    RIP football...

    His foot was over the defenders line. However there is zero advantage from it.

    Lallana goal was fair, however he scored with his shoulder which Firmino got a goal ruled out earlier in the season because his shoulder was offside

    I know it's ridiculous that these people think it would be more fair that offside goals are given ..I don't get it

    Skylarker and Hoddle is a god like this.
  20. "He was definitely offside. Wolves are right to feel aggrieved. He was off. They were, however, very unlucky with the Adam Lallana decision. It's incredibly rough on Wolves - they have been hard done by."
    (Lawro, BBC Football Live)

    When Lawro says it, it must have been an injustice on Wolves.

    Refs still committed to ensuring the World's most unpopular club win the league.
