So nice to see Liverpool finally on the wrong side of a dodgy VAR decision. Having said that though, I still can't see where Mane is offside.

I have a hunch that Liverpool are exaggerating VVD and Thiago's injuries in their effort to see VAR & Everton punished, as well as an excuse for their performance. Remember when a reporter asked Mourinho if Son would be out for a long time after Newcastle and he said yes?

I know it doesn't necessarily mean anything, but Virgil did walk off and Thiago played on..


Sandro walked off at QPR when he did his ACL.

I did not hear this flippant light heartedness when our players were injured and a bit of humility and understanding would not go amiss .
Sometimes when you have such an extreme view fate deals you a similar card so I would be careful what you wish for .
Humility and understanding to Liverpool ....

Exactly the same offside went against us prior to the non penalty awarded to Newcastle,cost us two points .Was expecting them to change the rules glad they didnt ,suck it up Liverpool.

I would not want any professional player to suffer severe injuries BUT Liverpool have had a good run of luck where their 2nd string players are not good Enough and have not been Used as they have suffered very few injuries over the last 2/3 years.
They get many decisions in their favour with VAR, that are terrible. Against us for
Example - Champions league final handball, Robertson 2 footed lunge on Tanganga, some Of the Penalties they have had against us in the league.
I have no sympathy for them or their entitled supporters. I have a few Liverpool fan mates and they all Talk shit when It comes to football - some massive amounts and some liberal amounts but they all talk shit!

The two offside calls were correct, I don't understand the outrage about them. VAR not suggesting a red for Pickford is a disgrace though.

Think the Pickford one is difficult, he’s gone for a spread - standard goalkeeper technique with an attacker coming in towards him, just both attacker and keeper missed the ball.

had vdv connected with it, we’d be saying it was an unreal and brave save.

but then, take it as a tackle rather than a save technique it’s a red card anywhere else on the pitch.

aside from the rules taking it back to the phase of play that was offside

How the ever living fuck that wasn't a red yet VAR gives Mane offside for an atom sums up the continual shitshow that is VAR.
The Pickford tackle wasn't a VAR decision, the officials were just implementing some of the fine print in the laws of the game. Since VVD was clearly in an offside position, it seems that the foul or the deserved penalty couldn't be given, despite the obvious recklessness and violence of the challenge.

The penalty couldn't be given because of the offside, but the red card could. If the red card couldn't have been given then we would never see players carded for off the ball incidents when the ball is out of play, which is something we see regularly (recently with Martial/Lamela).
