Frustrating though it can be, at least you get the right decision. Imagine the carnage on here if the lino flags for an obvious one and on replay, it’s actually onside. A good recent example of one is Borussia M‘s second goal v Bayern the other week, where all thought it was a blatant offside and the play continued half heartedly and the striker finished well. VAR showed it was onside.

Personally I think crazy bad decisions like that were few and far between, and I'd still rather that happens very occasionally than this nonsense of the flag not going up every single game.

It’s certainly frustrating but they are only meant to delay the flag when an immediate goalscoring opportunity is likely to occur.
It seems at the moment they are doing it for most offsides.
 
Scintillating or boring. What I'd give for the 'machine-like' get the lead and kill the game of last season.

Injuries at the back are catching up with us knocking everything out of kilter further up but my god we need to find someone who can just swing a boot at the ball towards the net! Shaq and Thiago having a pop and not trying to walk it in was nice to see.

Keeper kept us in it. A real chance to make a statement today but just not at the races.

He isn’t wrong though - Tierny blew every time a UTD player fell over , blowing early when Mane through yet both Mane and Salah constantly grabbed round the neck by Maguire yet nothing

This was apparently a foul on Maguire ?‍♂️

It was an awful game , Liverpool nowhere near on form and Utd had the two clear chances - UTD never had a better chance to beat Liverpool . We won’t be any worse than that - hopefully we will have some players back from injury soon like Jota , Matip

Garbage game superseded by a referee who’s whistle only worked one way

Do you really, honestly come away from that game more annoyed at the ref than the fact we created nothing? The Thiago hit from 20 yards was the only thing De Gea had to do all game. Yes, I thought Tierney got a few decisions wrong, but I can't see how the first reason given for not winning is the ref when we weren't good enough at all?
 
As a neutral, I dislike both teams ?, I thought utd gave a Jose performance and will be happy. They were organised and any team who sits back and are drilled will be tough to break down.

Liverpool were flat, the front 3 looked leggy. For all the possession De Gea had little to scare him.

A hugely forgettable game.

Where did I say he was the reason we didn’t win? I never did.

Hope this ends the conversation...
 
Must be the names.

Fabinho did a very good impersonation of Fernandinho constantly committing "professional" fouls to prevent the opposition breaking out.

Fair enough, every team does it to some extent, but the Liverpool fans on here have moaned endlessly about others.

We had chances , a few fell to Bobby in the first half which were scuffed , the chances were there just not making enough of them - the front three just weren’t at the races and struggling for some fluency

The ref wasnt the reason we didn’t win its just very frustrating to see the way he reffed the game - more annoyance than anything.

It’s not the worst result with the level of players out at the moment -

Good to see a realistic view of the game instead of some of the biased views (y)

Your crazy if you think the ref cost you the game?? your front three didn't perform well enough that's why you didn't win. (y)

He made 2 fouls,1 he was booked for. What else do you want?
