    On second viewing, that's a penalty. We're not getting them given though, so why should they? ;)

    Not for me, every angle shows Lovren getting his boot to the ball, and from the replay with an angle directly in line with the referees angle you can see the ball's path slightly changes direction, which I'm assuming is what he saw to not give it. Watching it live on the stream I was fairly sure Lovren got a touch but watching the replays on MOTD I'm flat-out certain.

    I see on MOTD that Liverpool lost to some Premier League team today.

    Robbie Fowler is truly an awful pundit. Seriously why can't they all be as good as Gary Neville?

    Editing and scrapping what I said. I think it's a penalty now. The deviation is Sturridge nicking the ball with his left foot. It doesn't look like a penalty from the referee's angle though, real time or the 1st replay as it seems Lovren got the nick to deviate the ball from those angles. The 2nd replay is a good angle to see Sturridge got there first. I had to run that a few times and look closely to be sure.

    You can see it however you want to see it at full speed. The replays show he didn't get the ball though in my opinion. I can't explain the deviation of the ball, but Lovren's foot is nowhere near it.

    Definite pen. but sometimes you get them and sometimes you don't.

    Ironically Sturridge attempted to stay on his feet which may have worked against him.

    Well played today,thought you deserved the win overall <ok>

    Well I've looked at Lovren's tackle and it looks close. But I don't care. Liverpool didn't make a song and dance about it and neither will I. We won, yahboo..!

    One thing that is refreshing is that reading through redandwhitekop they are not moaning much about the penalty at all.

    The other difference is unlike us (from how I see it) they talk about Pochettino beating Rodgers tactically whereas we tend to focus on players and certain moves or repeated scenarios within the game mentioning players etc. They just group the whole thing as:

    Maybe we over analyse individual players within single games. I don't mean if a player is having a bad run because that is different but sometimes a player has 1 off day and we are straight on him?

    Not saying who is having a bad run though. thats for other threads. lol

    Some of those 97 action pics are excellent. My particular favourite is:

    These guys love playing and scoring for Saints.

    Cheers mate. We think so too. A lot of pundits say Liverpool lost. We prefer to think that we won, if you appreciate the distinction.

    Many teams would have sat back once they had the goal.
