    Scouse not English

    hate em
    Agreed - absolutely vile bunch. 
  • Mane is one of the absolute worst for playing to win free kicks rather than..you know..trying to play football. 
  • Been a good first half and the second kicks off with the hospitality area opposite the TV camera almost totally empty. 

    It's absurd.

    Mount should be 2-0 up on his own

    Mount needs to add goals to his game cos at the moment he doesn’t offer anything more to England than we have with other better players

    Van Dijk screaming “I didn’t even touch the ball” when the screen showed the offside but he did foul James so he’s involved in the play.

    No way was that offside. I've seen so many goals given, even in the VAR era, when a player who doesn't touch the ball is offside.

    But the other way around I bet they wouldn't give a penalty.

    Difficult decision but probably the right call. At least the Ref had the chance to look at it which should have happened with the Everton non penalty yesterday.
  • VAR is awful, how are they using it to disallow that goal, but Keita is still on the pitch after a studs up challenge on Chalobah that wasn't even deemed to be worth a second look?

    That disallowed goal was the correct decision in my eyes. Yeah you can’t stand in an offside position and block players. By all means block players but you’ve gotta be onside.

    Is the right answer.

    No surprise it's going to extra time but it's been a decent game for a 0-0.

    Victims to lose on penalties would be a nice result

    That’s because the defender can’t be offside. The goal was ruled out for offside not a foul.

    Was the forward offside? Yes

    okay, is he interfering with play? Yes, he’s blocking the challenging defender.

    Lukaku and Werner live offside
  • That is a bullshit VAR call as well. Looking at the lines on the pitch he’s onside.

    Outrageous on Mendy if Keps comes on

    Seems weird

    Mendy is a class keeper.

    Not sure this obsession Chelsea have with playing Kepa for penalties, like he is the best keeper in the world at saving them

    Should have refused to come off

    How was that Lukaku goal offside, I don't get it

    Kepa has saved 7 of 24
    Mendy has saved 2 of 32

    excluding shootouts

    But you can't score with your arm. Or has the rule changed?

    Really wouldn't be happy if I was Mendy. Ok,  it seems that Kepa has played in the rounds to get there but if you've been the keeper for 120 mins you should be the keeper for the pens.

    Would have loved Kepa to have had a shot to save, spilled it & Liverpool scored.

    Something to do with someone from one side being in front of a defender from the other side.
    So my wife tells me.
    me? Haven’t a clue.
