    A funny thing about football. You almost never get penalties if you don't have possession of the ball. Check out the stats for those games. I bet in most of them the other team didn't have much possession. The stat just backs up that we are a possession based team.

    Wow. I didn't know Pickford had such a large penis.

    It's a loaded stat, 3 times this season FA have apologized to west ham for VAR 'mistakes', none of those are on the list as negatives.

    They never apologised to us either about the Brighton goalkeeper not being sent off for kicking Diaz in the face when through, nor the kane tackle on Robbo, nor the non penalty on Jota when he had the temerity to steady himself to shoot. Or Ally being elbowed in the face at west ham, for that matter...

    I can only repeat I thought it was a pen
    But I also do not think he should have been on the pitch at that point if rules had been implemented correctly
    I fairly confident I have said the officiating was a **** show
    All I was pointing out about carra was he also said things like he understood why the ref didn’t give it cause the lad had been trying it on all day and that he had to learn
    But yes I think it was a pen
    Or dodgy decision
    However there were a lot of dodgy decisions against both teams yesterday hence my final conclusion of **** officiating :)

    of course we get a share of dodgy decisions after all our refs are ****ing dreadful as everyone knows plus in football so many decisions are subjective .

    officials were terrible yesterday. Rightly booked Gordon for his dive in the first half. The rest, the ref set his stall out so couldn't book him again after some of the offences Liverpool got away with.

    We were never going to win, but without a hand tied behind our back we may have had a better change to get a goal.

    he set a high bar for cards when he only gave Decoure a yellow for first kicking Fab without any intent to play the ball, then simply chopping him knee high in an uncontrolled hack that could have caused injury. Seen many red cards given for that ( not to Pickford though).

    Get a grip ffs...Roy Keane admitted to deliberately ****ing up Haarland (putting out of the game for a year), Scholes regularly got carded for kicking lumps out of players and Cantona kicked **** out of a Palace support twat and stamped on a players chest...all good players are edgy ****ers ... just the way it is...

    "Shouldn't be allowed on a football pitch"
    ...and you call other people snowflakes <laugh>

    You are struggling with being worse than spurs while Liverpool and City slug it out for trophies...I feel your pain mate ... I felt the same when we were worse than Charlton while the gooners and you lot were top dogs <wah>
