Premier League 2023/2024

If it's a reckless challenge. If it's a tactical foul (aka SPA) then no as of four or five years ago.

First I've heard of that law to be honest. Still think Joelinton should have been booked.

Disagree, letting the crowd and pressure of Liverpool players affect him and giving all 50/50 type calls their way. Penalty was soft and would have stood up against var if he didn’t call it as Diaz dived.

They're getting needless bookings though so they're not getting everything.

Good job the Mickeys are not playing towards the Kop in the 2nd half

A two hand shove to the back to stop an attack is just never going to be considered reckless. It's worthy of a yellow for stopping a promising attack (and for being a dick) but the laws say the card isn't given after advantage.

i really like gordon, not having his best game but i think he's very close to being very good.

Eh? There's barely been any 50/50s at all, the penalty was a penalty even with the delayed fall from Diaz.

He just booked two Liverpool players for dissent.

The only one wrong so far was no yellow for Joelinton .

Looks like Antony Taylor on a mission to upset & annoy Liverpool today

 

[SlotBadger]

Anthony Gordon in with a shout for worst half of the season.

He looks absolutely knackered tonight.

I'm not arguing that the law exists, I just didn't know about it and apparently I'm not the only one. I swear I have seen players booked regardless of the type of challenge after the advantage has been given. If the ref blew for the foul then he would have been booked and in my mind the law should be if it's worthy of a booking and it's cynical (which let's be frank it was) then it should be a booking.

What's the 'pool chant to the 'tune' of 'U.S.A.'. The one that sounds a bit like 'You Eat Arse'?

 

[only1waddle]

what's the feeling here as best outcome, draw? or Newcastle nick a win?

Oh I 100% agree with you there.

Game ends 7v7, Klopp gets arrested and then Newcastle nick a win.

Personally I’d take Newcastle nicking a win, I think they’re knackered and will drop points consistently over the coming weeks. Plus, the league is so much more enjoyable this season having four or five teams genuinely still playing for it as opposed to two teams clearly out ahead.

It just sounds to me like they're chanting you fat bastard or you bent bastard at Anthony Taylor

Yup.

And most importantly, fuck Anfield and Liverpool.

Darwin Nunez is so quick he can go from Messi to Jansen in less than a second.

hes average mate.. fast, but average.

Really is a crime Nunez will probably never play for us - the most typically rubbish but also quite good 'Spurs' player I've ever seen
