Keita and Jota should also be in the book. It beggars belief how much they get away with on a weekly basis.
It's genuinely staggering. TAA just throws Coutinho to the ground and nothing, instead a free kick the other way. Script writers badly want this title race going to the wire.
Jon Moss currently putting in one of the most one sided refereeing performances you will ever see, with almost every decision going Varpool`s way. The bias is not even subtle, it is clear as day.
He moans about teams playing cautiously against them but it is impossible to go toe to toe with a team that literally has carte blanche to do anything it wants in any area of the pitch without consequence.
Er? How can Fabinho be playing? Didn't he get sent off against us for a forearm smash on Son? Oh, hang on, I may be mixing it up with that Doctor Strange multiverse of madness film. It might have happened in a different reality where normal laws of football apply.
The horrendous injury to his elbow by Sons' neck on saturday, is now obviously too painful to endure.
I'm not actually watching it, but I'm sure Stevie G has instructed hist team to kick the opposition to death like he did with them against us?
All this benefit of doubt and refusal to send off Varpool players etc all adds up to no suspensions, which means players are always available and a fresher squad, which means less chance of picking up injuries and less fatigue. Add all that to all the other gifts raining down on Varpool on a weekly basis, and it is easy to see why they are so high up the league.
They have barely put a tackle in, not that they have to for free kicks to be given away in this game. It is a complete contrast to the overly aggressive way they played against us.
Except of course where a suspension is advantageous. I wonder if Xhaka had been available instead of suspended for the postponed game against us it could have gone ahead? (If so, they should have given special dispensation for him to play instead of make the cowardly decision they did.)
Mings timewasting. What a ****ing idiot. Match finishes with 0 cards. I hope Moss enjoys his retirement. The ****.
