Ok do you think anything he said was wrong?

No, not wrong, but he did say something that made me laugh.
He was criticising the ref for not giving the penalty he thought they should have had and went on to explain that the ref had the best view!
So maybe the ref could judge the situation better than Klopp as he 'had a much better view'.
But having said that, i can't think of many coaches/managers that don't moan when the match didn't go their way.

He did have the best view.
But only him and the VAR ref thought it was not a pen.
Normally at least one pundit says it’s soft or not a pen but there wasn’t one.
 
Amazing match. Happy with a draw of course as I thought we'd get battered, but felt we were the better side and unlucky not to win overall. Personally I'd have had Kane and Robertson challenges as both yellows - they've both gone for the ball and made a mess of it, neither was two-footed. But Robertson's certainly wasn't worse than Kane's, so if that's a red they both are.
Didn't see the Jota one clearly, looked like nothing more than a strong shoulder barge but I could be wrong.
I know they've changed the hand ball laws six times but the Salah hand ball on their second goal just has to be hand ball for me. They don't score if he doesn't handle it, it's that simple.
It's a shame Dele isn't sharp, produced a top save out of Allison but he could have slotted it the other side, plus he fluffed that cut across to Kane which would have been a goal if he'd have got it right. So many clear chances we should have been 4-1 up at one stage. I think both sides having unfamiliar midfields is what made it so open.
Anyway, it was a fantastic game that had everything really. Never going to complain much about a point against this Liverpool team.

Would agree most of that. But two reds
And the pen was a bit more than a barge.
Let us know what you think when you see it.

Found a Twitter video. It's a strong hip to hip challenge, he went down a bit easy but I wouldn't have complained too much if it was given. It's clumsy. We did see the same challenge not given the other way as well though in the second half, think it was Matip on Winks, just outside the box though.

Your eyes must be different to mine ???;)
They normally give them outside the box.

Did you watch the game live? Hip to hip?? He ploughed through the back of him.

Hip to hip ??

He has gone into his back
 
Where's our resident arbiter of the rules today? We need his expertise.

Yeah I watched but on a small tablet and I missed the replay, haha. It wasn't through the back though he came in on his side, but Jota dived* away from him as he went down which made it look like it was in the back.

*not dived as in it was a dive I just mean the direction he falls

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.

Utter bollocks.

Jota fell forward, its almost impossible for him to fall forward had he been pushed feom the side, no?

Surely if it was side to side Jota would've fell to the side, no?

Throw stills up all you like, watch the full tackle in real time again.

Who's exaggerating? Jota is running at a decent speed, not standing still.
