The GK just wasn't set and ready for the free kick - nice helping hand though from Clattenburg - never a free kick in a million years after Hazard goes down easily.

Chelsea just sitting deep with 11 men behind the ball happy with what they have , we can't get through the bus going through the middle , need width and pace to stretch the back 5
 
Id still expect a keeper to save that one.
If they were actually looking and ready to dive that is.

Mane looks uncomfortable too now.
How, he went over the wall at pace and hit the inside of the post, Ming was covering the other side, all the credit goes to Luiz, very few if any keepers wouldn't of got anywhere near it.
 
Whilst I agree it's not a free kick. From the angle he had, clattenberg (who infuriates me) couldn't have seen the knee on the ball.

Think there will will be more goals for Chelsea as they still look to counter and liverpools attack is rather toothless.

It's always easy to play against a one dimensional team.
 
Its all gone pete tong :mad:

'twas super strike. Keeper would have struggled to save that Luiz strike even if he was completely set.


The rags were full today of Wenger saying his forward line is better than the invincibles. Bound to draw a blank after that. :(

Imthink he was going to be covering the other side. But as it hit he wasn't even looking. He was still shouting at the wall.

Whetehr hed he'd have got across, ok I accept he may not have. But he wasn't prepared.
 
I guess Slippy never got a free kick he didn't deserve :rofl:

Watch replays of the free kick, the Chelsea players didn't expect Luiz to take it, they aren't ready either, brilliant quick thinking.
 
Just seen a chopper Harris style tackle from a Sunderland player on Spurs, how it's not a straight red god only know, he was gritting his teeth as he lashed out and scythed the player down!

GK not good but have to say even if he was set the wall is that side and I don't think any keeper in the world would save that.

fantastic free kick!

never a foul but you see this every week.

oficials don't even know you can't be offside if the ball is played backwards.

best ref in the world think the jury's out on that one.

But game has gone to the script up to now.

very frustrating.
 
From the replay behind goal, I'm not sure what the wall was doing. Looked to be guarding the outside of the post? We're they expected a reverse of roberto Carlos in France?

Agreed don't think the keeper would save it,it does however take the direct blame away from the rest of the team so far toothless and I don't think they have any idea how to break Chelsea down.

Seems like Mane could be injured and the even more toothless Sturridge to save the day.

Liverpool free falling and no parachute to save them lmao
