Sorry I can’t recall shirt pulls on games 2 months ago ?‍♂️

And doesn’t matter what tool if the ref is still that poor he can’t even see the infringement in front of them

Don’t need to have appeals -don’t need it rugby which is a more appropriate game to compare to as opposed to cricket which has no comparison at all to football.

Selective memory, your red spectacles must be welded to your head.

Shirt pulls that were all over social media, decisions described as “massive” on here by fellow reds and yet you wish to bring Pickford in to, a situation that involved the Laws of the Game and you blame the VAR Official, what about the Ref and the Lino?

Why would someone remember a shirt pull from over two months ago as opposed to a tackle that ended someones season with a serious knee injury ? - can you really not see why fans would remember that ? And yes i blame the VAR ref for seeing the tackle and deeming it fine

Maybe you should read a bit clearer then - I did say that can’t recall two shirt pulls and your response was that I selective memory ?

The Pickford Incident was also relevant because it was the high profile incident with VAR in the Derby that you brought into the discussion ?
 
CL draw

Borussia Monchengladbach v Manchester City
Lazio v Bayern Munich
Atletico Madrid v Chelsea
Leipzig vs Liverpool
Porto vs Juve
Barce vs PSG
Sevilla vs Dortmund
Atalanta vs Real Madrid

You can’t even remember your own replies! You only mentioned not remembering the shirt pulls after your first reply ignored them and you brought Pickford in to it!! So I went back at you!

I asked you about 2 specific instances that were similar and not picked up by VAR, you ignored those instances and brought an another incident in to it (Pickford) that WAS seen by VAR! Completely different to what was bring discussed.

Ok

I’ll try and explain

You mentioned the Derby and two incidents being missed by the VAR , I actually agreed that the VAR that day was shocking ( Coote ) hence why he did nothing in regards the Pickford tackle

So overall VAR that day was shocking both in missing things and then the actual VAR ref clearly being utterly incompetent- poor application of the tools and poor referee

Can't believe he didn't see red for that. The team really is a shadow of its former self, unless something changes pdq, I fear this may become the first time we get relegated from the top flight.

The ref was poor imo.
He should have gone your right.
But the ref was three yards away from Xhaka incident and only gave him a yellow.
He was told by the Var ref to look at the moniter and changed that to red.
Everyone knows if you grab someone by the throat it’s red ,except the ref yesterday without his VAR crutch.
 
Joking aside I know the draws been done which has somewhat overshadowed Houlliers sad passing. What’s the Liverpool’s fans thought on him. I quite liked him personally.

Whose next and can you really see any improvement with that squad without adding quality players to it?

Id stick with him personally, not sure it will happen though.

Only way we improve with the current squad is to remove the long standing poisons like Xhaka from it and play some of the youngsters but long term far more quality is needed. Its amazing how many times some of them need to fail yet get given chance after chance. Been saying it for years but isnt going to change under the current board set up sadly

Would like to see us set up something like:
Leno, AMN, Saliba, Gabriel, Tierney, Ceballos, Partey, Saka, Smith Rowe, Nelson/Martinelli, Aubameyang

I would put the following up for sale/free tfr: Ozil, Xhaka, Luiz, Willian, Lacazette, Elneny, Mustafi, Sokratis, Chambers, Holding, Bellerin, Kolasinac, Cedric

The second list shows just how the big a problem anyone incoming has!
