And, we’re off.......2018/2019

No surprise Cardiif went down. Was watching SSN earlier and so many twists and turns in league one's relegation battle. Southend escaped but Plymouth and AFC Wimbledon were only a goal going in somewhere to be down instead.

Newcastle looking very sluggish tonight and haven't got going and shocking marking for the goal but a good header from VVD. I can see Liverpool winning with ease if they concentrate and all the pressure back on City

Indeed but would you rather take the goal or risk missing the penalty

No idea, deliberate handball and not even a card.

Glad the ref didn’t blow and instead left play continue, but yes certain red card.

Wonder how long Klopp regrets playing Gómez ahead of TTA against Barca.

Strange decision seeing that Gómez was out for so long and TTA is in fine form.

Is it though? I thought “double jeopardy” was brought in so if you got a pen the player didn’t get sent off because it’s already enough of a punishment

Found an article here however says deliberate hand ball is

Depends if the ref deems it deliberate I guess

Yeah I’m not sure of the current rule exactly but I recall deliberate handball (which it clearly was) being a yellow minimum.

Can’t wait for VAR for sure

Situation like that the goal stands and the ref gets a word in his ear to review it.. someone gets a card

The ref is very poor anyway imo, so many fouls, deliberate obstructions, playing advantage at times but not going back to the player to show a card, the inconsistency is terrible.

It’s not a certain red at all because Newcastle scored - it’s a yellow card for deliberate handball

The way Newcastle are playing there is every chance - doesn’t help playing with ten man as Sturridge is a waste out there

I can’t believe he gets a shirt, specially in such an important game. Absolutely pony.

That doesn’t look good for Mo 😢

Underestimating Newcastle it seems? Let’s face it they pretty much put the champs league... they have to win both league games.. I know where I would focus my efforts

Let’s hope your medical team stand firm and get him off. Don’t need a repeat of spurs mid week.

I think that’s going to be the moment that will decide the title 😢
