The OFFICIAL Liverpool FC thread - Arne to Slot right in?

[RedHand88]

So...
Keeper lands awkwardly, gets up and taylor waves play on as the keeper is obviously OK.
Keeper rolls it out and starts absent mindedly playing with his socks, has a brain fart.
Gakpo tries to capitalise and THEN the referee blows his whistle. Why? Just reasons.
Taylor goes over to the confused keeper and tells him to go to ground (!) and wait as he then signals for the physio for the non existent injury.

Have I got any of it wrong?

[Milltown Row2]

Think they mentioned that keeper had an injury signalled to ref but played on and then when the Liverpool picked up the ball the ref blew,

Stuart Pearse did say he should have put ball in net and ask the question.

But it's definitely not because he's from Manchester ffs

That's how they explained it.

You've watched football, in one game, how many non existent injuries are there in a game? I'd say 90%

Look, these things tend to even themselves out over the season

*Definitely*? How do you know?

As Clattenburg said about the Forest game and has been said many times before, including in the SPL - just use a totally neutral ref and save yourself the hassle.

Then why not just give soft penalties, or multiple yellows leading to reds and so on?

Your starting to get on like the Celtic supporters

Lights fuse and slips off

[markl121]

Yes yes bring up the spl. Celtic and rangers have the problem that about 80% of the country supports them so therefore hard to get a totally neutral ref unless they start bringing up English refs.  But the appointment of Anthony Taylor to so many Liverpool games when there are alternative refs available is laughable

Is that Top 4 secure for Liverpool now after Spurs losing?

It looks like it. Unless Spurs win their 5 remaining games by a 20 goal difference and Liverpool lose their 3 remaining games

Taylor from Manchester cheated by stopping open play when there was no obvious injury.

Audio from ref would be interesting but it won't be released.

Taylor from Manchester also missed a clear yellow for a stamp by Paqueta on MacAllister. VAR either didn't want to make his mate look silly or didn't think it merited a review by the ref.

There was a buckling of a the angle which was the reason Jones got sent off against spurs earlier in the year.

considering one of those 5 is Man City it would have to be very very strange

It's gone from winning the quadruple to worrying about finishing top 4.

Is that not the normal way of things. Once the title's gone you look to the next biggest challenge. Finishing top 4 is essential. Wouldn't want to be dropping out of it again. Makes it more challenging for the new manager when you're not in the CL. Harder to attract the talent you want.

Wouldn't like to have a new manager AND not be in the CL for instance...

It's the bit where you ask who was going on about the quadruple the conversation usually ends. Maybe sky sports and wee Jonny age 14 off tinternet but other than that.....

I don't support anyone so I'm not worried about who does or doesn't get Top 4 buddy...
If I were you though I'd be more concerned about not beating Burnley but hey ho....

[Milltown Row2]

Its funny old game as they say.

Roll reversals for Utd and Liverpool this season and last

Slot will have some playing issues to contend with, will he be bringing his own staff or will there be some continuity with current coaching staff?
