Quality he's built and put into this team.

Mourinho makes United look like a bunch of farmers when we go to Anfield.

Pochettinos big game record may be just as bad, but by god it's more entertaining and playing to win.

That's my one big gripe with Mourinho, he doesn't ever show ambition against managers he has bad record against.

For such a quality, entertaining side they were shamefully like an old school snide Italian outfit yesterday.

Is this seriously the rule? Again, whats top stop people exploiting this and just having a player in the box and smashing it long in the hope of getting a deflection?

If this is genuinely the rule, its completely stupid. If its a deflection, it should still be offside.

It's not supposed to be fair, it's supposed to benefit the attacker

I'm sure you would of been more complimentary had the result gone your way.

But for what it's worth, I thought Spurs deserved a point, maybe more.
 
Yeah, because that would have made their shithouse approach right if they'd lost the game.

Stellar set of standards you have there z.

I think the argument here is that it doesn't actually count as a deflection. It counts as a very ****** back pass, as in, he makes an attempt to play the ball and just hits it wrong, and as a result he plays Kane on-side. Random deflection sending the ball to player in offside position would still be offside I think.

Bingo. Its the deliberate nature that plays him on, accidental and its offside.

I think it's pretty clear if both current senior and ex-referee's can't agree on that the law is seriously flawed and needs definitively wording.
 
It's a sign of the state football is in right now when fans are talking about match officials yet again and not the game! FFS!:@
 
Oh definitely the rules aren't perfectly clear here and it was a bit of uncharted territory. But ultimately I think they made a decision that makes most sense.

Or maybe it's a sign of the need for fans to be outraged these days. A lot of things needed to go wrong for Liverpool to be in that position. VVD should never have let the ball get that far. It ignores the fact that Spurs were well worth their point too

Moss again, just wont let Liverpool boot anyone nowadays. Terrible :p
 
And now the predictable, B/S PR machine to cover both the arses of their incompetent members and themselves is underway from the body that appoints referee's:

DVSc5rRW0AACrbM.jpg:large


Basically saying 'Hi. I'm Jon Moss. When I said TV I meant I didn't have a ******* clue what I was doing Anfield. I flat out lied that I never seen the incident yesterday as I now remember I did. But it was just a L'pool player and I don't remember which one. But yer know? No biggie right?'

Incompetence of the highest level and complete and utter fabrication to try sweep it under the carpet. In effect condoning official's making decisons on 'a hunch.' With absolutely NO mention of the second massive F up that cost a club 2 vital points and potentially a **** load of revenue.

I guess we should expect the same of the Tottenham players attempts to blatantly deceive the match officials too? After all, how could we possibly make an example of a National treasure like Harry Kane?

Couldn't stink anymore if it came wrapped in a sewage pipe.
 
He's actually right though. The only issue is the TV use, because the refs actually want VAR
 
We don't have VAR. He knows we don't have VAR. So he's actually just an incompetent official who didn't have a F-ing clue what was going on, along with his lino, and made a crucial, and potentially VERY costly decision (regardless of the outcome of the first penalty), that they should be 100% clear on, on a hunch.

It's nottin' shy of a disgrace.
 
Worse decisions have happened. Demanding people get fired is a completely hysterical decision.
