Guess by the letter of the law it’s a late challenge and taking the man after the ball has been played - but it’s rare you see them given when it happens a lot but really should be a penalty and maybe it’s surprising that VAR didn’t look at it

And nobody else has any responsibility?

Yes, I’m annoyed he didn’t score, still a foul imo, if he’d of jumped up and made a move that would of being interfering with play the lino would of flagged.
Neither officials on the pitch saw no reason not to award a goal.
Deflecting onto Gylfi’s actions are red herrings.

Nope they’re told to defer these things to VAR. They aren’t sure if Sigurdsson is interfering so they use the option available to them and got it correct.

So Yernited drew and the Spuds got beat; still Chelsea's main challengers for 4th are Wolves and Sheffield Utd........?????

No it's not. He should've done better with both situations.

Having watched Pickford today and the goal he conceded, I am really concerned for England. He isn't the best keeper we have and I feel he's an accident waiting to happen. Granted he hasn't done it in an England shirt but I think his PL form is patchy at best. On a similar note, what has happened to De Gea. He was touted as the best keeper in the world but looks so much more nervy these days and lacking in confidence. He still produces some great saves but his touch on the ball and on-field persona seems far more removed from where he was two seasons ago

It was the same at Wembley when I went in 1982 to watch The mighty Rainworth miners welfare play Forest Green rovers in the FA Vase final.

The mini-league for 4th/5th place is so weak this year....

Congratulations to Watford, the game at Anfield could have also seen a different result on another day.

You could argue that it's the battle for 4th/5th and relegation that's kept the league interesting!!??

Still very happy that my boys are still in 4th when a lot of people had us down for being nowhere near CL contention. If we do finish in 4th with our current injury list and a fair few players who need to be moved on at the end of the season then Frank gets a fair bit of credit from me.

That tends to be the case quite often. Last year was an exception but usually the relegation battle goes closer to the wire and is much more interesting.

Would love to have a beer with Souness and Keane and see what they really think about some players and teams.

Because they're normally shy on the telly?

Just imagine what they’d say a few bevvies in!

Regardless of Saturdays result, Liverpool will still win the league.
Despite what's been said about the league being weak this year, you can only beat what's in front of you. So early congratulations
