Everton at Anfield

What an annoying gimp he is

[Mr Pink]

I think Konate was lucky he didn't get a second yellow. But to be honest the big difference that. I haven't heard anyone on telly make - Diaz beats Young, he is 10 yards from goal with a cut back. Beto beats Konate, he is 75 yards from goal with Liverpool cover. Totally different challenges. ****in lazy cunts

the media have seemed to really jump on this, and I wonder are they trying to push the narrative that the **** up in the spurs game is evening itself out or something.

Why was there no talk after pascal gross should have been sent off against us? And there seems to be a lot more talk about konate than there was about kovacic, which was a lot more clear. Maybe because arsenal won that game anyway, but even still…

Garth Crooks....so, 2 of ours make it into his team of the week, but only so he can rant about other players. VVD made it, solely to allow him to have a go at Konate and the refereeing injustice, and then Salah gets in so he can take a pop at Diaz and the referee again.

Wait, what, you mean someone acually clicks on that webpage every week still?

Presume he couldn't see it.

In the context of the game Konate was lucky but until games are refereed by AI there still be inconsistent decisions, thankfully we got one for once.

It was a foul, but it’s not as though such fouls are always given as yellows. We have faced players (usually against city) who do three or four a game without any sign of a booking. The reaction is disproportionate because Everton had nothing else in the game, and I mean literally nothing, it’s the only thing for them to whinge about in a totally one sided game, so they are.

We got lucky for sure, but we are allowed to be lucky once in a while like every other team. This is probably the only decision going our way this season that maybe shouldn't have. He wasn't even going to award a penalty in the first place FFS.

This is where the game has gone though, we are regularly having discussions about whether what are minor fouls should result in a yellow or second yellow card, I don’t really remember having these debates a couple of years ago.

The rules are stupid, I don't want to see players getting second yellow cards for silly soft offenses like kicking the ball away or waving imaginary yellow cards and I think for the most part refs probably don't want to do that which is part of the problem with inconsistency. I don't like those behaviours but I think they are too minor to result in someone being sent off, so you end up with some refs being strict and others not and the whole thing is a farse

4 out of our 9 PL games haven't finished 11 v 11

Absolutely 100% spot on

[Cerbie]

Yeah, he caught the Everton player on the shin, which was why the player went down. The Konate arm out wasn't the reason the Everton player went to ground. We got lucky with that one really.

I had to watch MOTD to see that. Also had to apologise to my Bluenose mate as I thought it was just the arm out initially too.

The Diaz challenge by Patterson was a clear pen, but oddly VAR nor MOTD saw anything in that….
