There is the point of contact, you can see he's come in sideways because his left leg is actually in front of Jota. His left arm does make contact with top of Jota's back. You can say it's a foul, I won't argue too much, but you don't need to exaggerate.

Give those glasses back to Daniel Levy, we gotta way with one there ?

We know youre not capable of watching any game without seeing it throught your yernited glasses ?

My 'yernited' glasses are currently broken, therefore everything I see is totally and utterly unbiased!
Ploughed through the back of him?
Take your glasses off, Stu, give your head a little wobble and ask yourself this one simple question;
Did he really 'plough' through the back of him?
If the answer is still yes, you're late taking your meds again.

I'm not saying it wasn't a foul, it could easily have been given, I'm just saying they don't need to invent nonsense like "he ploughed through the back of him" which is clearly not how it happened.

I watched the video before replying to ClubChamp in the first place. Obviously. ?
The fact is if that tackle came in on Dele Alli all the Scouse contingent here would have been saying he dived.

Obvious yeah??

to quote your post 20190 - Yeah I watched but on a small tablet and I missed the replay,-

Is that your best defence?

If if if but but but

It was a penalty regardless of whether it was a Liverpool,spurs,Arsenal,chelsea,yernited, city or even Everton player in that position. 100%

Dele Ali never got a pen because he A, went down like a sack of *** B, he wasnt in control of the ball.

2 seasons ago it was a pen, DCL got one at Anfield when he threw himself to the deck after Lovren had put his hands on him.

I remember being told on here that when yoh put youre hands on a player in the box its a pen. That rule has changed for the better of the game.

If he comes from the side and hits jota hip to hip theres no way he falls forward. Almost impossible....

If he comes from behind and hits him he's not falling sideways is he?

No wonder this thread gets ruined on a weekly basis.

I hate spurs,

Jota has gone down like a sack. There's nothing in that.

First thing I said to ClubChamp was I've just watched the vid on Twitter.

This is a bizarrely impassioned rant when I haven't categorically said it wasn't a foul. Just that he comes in sideways rather than "through the back of him" as was stated. If you think he can get his left leg in front of the player while simultaneously barging through the back of him then he must be some kind of shape-shifter.

Anyway, bored now. Have a nice evening.

[Piece]

Another Barney about Liverpool not getting 16 penalties, and another whinge about refs and VAR being absolutely shocking. ?‍?. Just another standard week on the Football Thread ??

It's not a rant at all.

It's standard physics.

Genuine question?

How can a human fall forward whilst moving forward at a decent pace if he is pushed from the side?

There were similar challenges all over the pitch that didn’t get given as fouls.

If that’s a pen. Spurs should have had one when a Liverpool player jumped into a spur’s players back. And the one on Ali was a pen, TAA put two hands on his back. It doesn’t matter that Ali didn’t have control of the ball, a foul is a foul. Jota didn’t have control of the ball either, but I suppose that doesn’t matter ??‍

Nothing is impossible for Liverpool’s front 3 probably practice these moves in training.
We’ve all seen Mane and Salah produce some corkers even when not touched.
This time it probably was a penalty,but when you dive constantly the obvious ones don’t always get given.
I thought Salah the one season wonder was oblivious today also.
TAA probably the best passer since Beckham.
If Spurs had took their chances today 3 of them would have been because TAA was caught out of position.

He fell diagonally forward (due to his forward momentum of running) and to the side (because that's where the impact came from). You can see all this on the video so I don't know why you're asking me anyway.

You obviously never watched the game.

2 fouls exactly the same as the jota incident were given in the middle of the park. Klopp was booked for pointing out this.

Er it was outside the box so it would've been a direct free kick.......

The Ali one wasnt under tbe current refereeing laws.

Jota never had comtrol of the ball? ????

Because his forward momentum is greater than the momentum from the side which unbalances him (LiverpoolPhil tells us that it only takes a little touch to unbalance players when they are moving at speed... )

Or he dived.

Or his forward momentum is greater than the momentum from the side which unbalances him and he dives.

Take your pick.

I'm asking you because you've pulled my point.

If you dont want to interact thats fine, just dont quote what i've said.

Are you genuinely trolling? Have you watched a game of rugby!?(Note; they fall forward when tackled quite a bit, it's called momentum)

You can also fall forward from diving, but a Liverpool player would never do that.

Even the most die hard Liverpool hater cant deny that was a pen??

Never.

No trolling here

I've no idea, I haven't seen it, but I understand Newton's Laws of Motion.
