Liverpool vs Napoli - Champions League (Group Game 6)

[Kenneth]

The VVD booking / foul and a bunch of other "fouls" that were nothing of the sort.

I've not recorded the game though, so that's as much detail I can give.

That's a booking in any game I'm afraid. You can't catch somone like that, whether you play the ball or not.

Not saying the ref was good and didn't make mistakes - like booking VvD, just that the whingeing was over the top.

[Corndog]

There was definitely one where Firmino quite legitimately nicked the ball through the legs of a Napoli player and a foul was called. Ospina fumbling a punch was somehow because of Sadio Mane who he ran into.

[Fredo]

Yeah, VVD deserved a booking I thought. The lad who tackled Gomez the other day was a similar challenge, sliding through.

Stop talking bollocks Kennel. Ball first, nothing else matters

Well, if you will frequent a match thread

He's a very odd poster.

Stop following me around the boards you weirdo!

Matters if you break a player's leg.

There was nothing malicious with Virgil's challenge but the slide was dangerous.

There's a irony between the two halves of that post.

Oh, look out Fredo’s awake

Whats the frequency Kenneth

I want Real Madrid so bad it's hurting me. They aren't particularly good either so should see us through comfortably enough, though they are lazy gob****es who raise their game for CL nights.

I'd also choose them.

Though you can expect some favourable refereeing for Real.

[SB]

I’ve not read the match thread but did anyone else spot the Napoli fan balling his eyes out in the 38th minute? Gee not much faith in your team or what when only needing 1 goal to progress

So you don't think that the whingeing about the referee has been OTT in this thread, but you're prepared to complain about the referee - not just before the game - but before we've even been drawn against a team?
