seen the red card and it's a poor decision. comes round the side, trailing leg clips him, doesnt go through him which is crucial, and his studs lock in the turf. doesnt have to be intent anymore but for me it's a total accident, it's certainly not reckless

spoken to 3 officials I know well, 2 in prem and 1 in EFL. first 2 are on UEFA list.
none thought it even a foul....

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Fri Sep 17, 2021 3:19 pm  

so did I. liverpool were excellent. like last year it's what we do against mid to bottom teams. liverpool have spent half a billion in last 5 years on players. ridiculous amount

Yep done it to appease Klipp Klopp. Disgraceful

maybe, maybe not.
but how they came to the decision was appalling, it looked really bad

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Fri Sep 17, 2021 7:46 pm  

blatant penalty turned down but should be out of sight. so wasteful

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Fri Sep 17, 2021 9:00 pm  

that awful penalty decision, so blatant when we were one up was crucial.
however so wasteful. bamford poor, Robert's is total dross and rodrigo was outstanding. patched up side, especially second half when we lost more senior players through injury means a point is a decent one

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Fri Sep 17, 2021 9:42 pm  

You can see why these two teams are at the bottom of the league.
Firpo and James 2 of Bielsa`s signings not doing it for me, yet.
Bamford once again poor along with Dallas.
And why would you take Raphina off and bring on Roberts ffs.
Roberts should not even make the squad but Bielsa keeps picking him and time after time he fails.
He`s a show pony and needs to be playing in a. Championship side
No structure from both sides tonight and if we can`t beat Newcastle we really are in for a long season.
From where I was sat in the gods you could see it was more like a basketball game (you attack we attack)
Saint Maxim instead of James would have been the sensible choice this season.

Couldn’t watch it due to illness but from what I’ve read we should have been out of sight, No quality on the bench hence why when we made subs we lost our way.

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Sat Sep 18, 2021 5:15 am  

Just seen to lack any real cutting edge. We didn't create many chances and w butchered the ones we did make.

Need to get our mojo back, or it'll be a long hard season
