Well wasn't that the same phase of play as the foul on sterling? Should have been pulled back to that incident quite simply.

And that passage of play perfectly sums up why players need to dive when they feel contact

Apparently I was deluded for thinking it possible we score 4 past these... they are as suspect as we are at the back.

From what was a clear free kick and yellow card for Jota straight to a penalty for Liverpool, great reffing.

City are doing feck all this season. Theyre a shadow of what they once were despite the bullshit buildup to this

That Sterling challenge shows exactly why players are told to go down. Not that throwing yourself down will ever sit 100 percent comfortably with me no matter how much contact.

That is why Liverpool should never talk about VAR and referees. Every game, every year. Should have had freekick against them but they are given penalty instead

More then 30 seconds later or whether the arbitrary time thing they've decided on. Did Liverpool keep the ball the whole time?

Absolutely inept refereeing. No place for honesty in the game. If you wants foul, best go down theatrically because you won't get anything otherwise

Rodri is just never going to be able to do what Fernandinho did in that role at his best. He's like a waste of space when defending. I don't understand why they haven't tried to find a more suitable replacement for him. Not that I mind. :p

Should never have been a pen considering sterling was taken out the other end and then got punished for trying to stay up.

Difference between us and these two teams is night and day.

Pool are so far ahead it's like we're not playing the same sport.

That being said, their players are such wankers. Punchable characters all around.

Incredible to think you'd play two midfielders versus Pep's three away from home and you're dominating the ball with Wijnaldum and Henderson, who cost less than half of one of your fullbacks.

Pep is a joke.
