Spurs v Liverpool

Re: Spurs v Liverpool

Liverpool have had plenty of decisions go for them just because of who they are

This is amusing

And United lost

Sad day for South Wales Plasticos

Why do you watch the Premier League if you despise it so much?

Or you watch loose women

It really is no more than that

Ok great. I'm pleased for you. You still got nowhere near to answering the question though.

Re: Spurs v Liverpool

VAR should be binned. End of.

It's not the technology that is faulty though, it's the humans using it that are. I agree that Liverpool have benefited from poor decisions more than they've been hurt by down the years, but it really was shocking yesterday. I thought that although Jota could have no complaints, Curtis Jones' red card was harsh and words fail me about the disallowed goal - it was clearly onside and it emerged later that the VAR official did not bother checking it, prompting this statement from the referee's organistation.

'The goal but Luis Diaz was disallowed for offside by the on-field team of match officials. This was a clear and obvious factual error and should have resulted in the goal being awarded through VAR intervention, however, the VAR failed to intervene.

'PGMOL will conduct a full review into the circumstances which led to the error.

'PGMOL will immediately be contacting Liverpool at the conclusion of the fixture to acknowledge the error.'

Re: Spurs v Liverpool

They are saying today the VAR thought he was confirming that the goal was onside, he got the on-pitch decision wrong. So definitely people/process rather than technology, although the technology part has made its share of mistakes.

I also can’t agree on the Jones decision being harsh - any time you go over the ball and catch somebody with studs in todays game it’s an automatic red. By the standards of 15-20 years ago maybe not, but it’s cut and dry at this point.

Re: Spurs v Liverpool

Agree with the sending off, a red card all day long. He wasn't far off breaking the guys leg.

Re: Spurs v Liverpool

With you on Jones red card. Intent has been removed from the law so despite it clearly being an accident it's still a definite red card these days.
Jota's first yellow is very unlucky but again although the contact was minimal and accidental it stopped Spurs counter attacking at speed so probably worthy of a booking.
The offside goal was unlucky but called offside during actual play so had var not been there it would still have been disallowed.
Have to say thought Klopp interviewed really well after the match as he can sometimes be a bit of an eejit but was much calmer than I'd have been in his position.

Re: Spurs v Liverpool

Our Fa cup game at anfield the other year.
The big club got all the decisions.
A clear sending off not given and a City penalty not given.
Feck um.

His knee just touched his foot and made him trip over. Unintentionally but still tripped him

That non sending off still rankles with me diabolical decision.

Whether you think the first was harsh or not, to then take the worse one for your second a few minutes later is completely unforgivable and stupid, hard to have too much sympathy for him.
