Someone is on a yellow card -and then commits a yellow card tackle - he should be off , even if the first yellow was soft

But it wasn't a second yellow was it. you and others may think so, but it's what the ref think that counts.

So basically the ref made 2 errors.
One favoured Liverpool,the other didn’t

Was the ball OK tonight?

 

[Arthur Wedge]

No the kick on Jones.

At least it’s just the first leg

Guess someone needs to tell Ange though

Too yellow and round

Tsmikas was off the pitch as well after the foul and the goal came from where he would have been.

I think he did think it was a foul but played advantage fair enough.
But should go back if it’s a yellow.

Unfortunately that’s correct.

Not round enough for me.

That’s fine - that’s good that you have put your line in the sand when it comes to being behind the refs decisions

I was hoping for more goals but overall a decent game.

Our final ball was shocking we never looked like scoring.

You can't simultaneously complain about a perceived wrong decision whilst ignoring the first.
That's not how the world works

I was disappointed with Salah, is his mind elsewhere?

Who says the first wasn’t a yellow ? He went flying in on a player

I’m not a fan!
He’s anonymous in lots of games but scores and gets MOM.
But look at his stats they tell a different story.

I can’t belive he took Gakpo and Jota off and left him on.
Everyone has bad games but he very rarely gets hooked because one moment of magic and he scores.

We were poor tonight sloppy passing .
But the ref done us not Spurs.

That's not how things work though. Even if he got a red, you have no idea how things wouldve panned out.
Full strength LFC against injury hit spurs. You can blame the ref I guess but I'd be looking at your players tbh

Well I know for defo that he wouldn’t have scored
Would Spurs have reset and sat back?

It’s over now ,we will never know !

One thing I don’t understand is why managers are not allowed to speak their mind without sanctions.
If he does it in a measured way .
Protecting the refs seems to be the most important thing even when there so wrong!

I'm appreciating your totally objective and impartial analysis of this situation.
