Match Day Thread General matchday thread.

I was just thinking that.

 

I covered a chunk of it, rather than cashing out mate.

What was he thinking ffs? Brainless that.

 

Fair enough. I just think refs are too hasty sometimes, where as VAR is allowed to take forever to make a decision.

Anyway, I was hoping the Chelsea player had got away with it, so i'm being bias

 

Good shout.

And yeah completely mental, they were well in the game but he's cost them any chance of winning it now.

 

I think we would score or the keeper will get sent off if he doesn't do it.

 

It was a clear red. It's when they inevitably award a penalty to Liverpool at half time due to Lampard whinging that LiVARpool trully ascend though.

 

Better to allow the goal or at least take the chance.

Certainly a rugby tackle wasn't his best option there

 

Been used to the ****e refs in the Championship but first impressions of VAR aren't good.

 

At least something happened though. Dull as **** otherwise.

 

Yeah probably.

 

Now they're entirely reliant on all Liverpools chances falling to Firmino.

 

If Mane gets to the ball before the keeper and scores then it is what it is, but getting sent off effectively ends the game as a contest.

 

Yeah we were dominating possession but not really creating much.

 

He's ok away from home. But yeah not great at the moment.

 

Hope Thiago gets some minutes, would make sense with them down to 10.

 

I see you've got the thug Joey Barton's team in the Carabao Cup on Wednesday.

 

Needed to check whether anybody else might have got to the ball ahead of Mane ... including the keeper ... if possibly... then would have been a yellow... as they wouldn't have, it's s red ...

 

Essentially he bottled taking any responsibility for the decision as he can just use VAR.

Very poor officiating.

 

Didn't take long lol.

 

Or just making sure he got it right ... which was the whole intent of VAR in the first place ... so we are now here commenting on a correct decision ....
