Yeah it clearly was. They just bottled it. Can imagine the VAR just not wanting any part in deciding a game that's balanced as a reasonable and harmless draw lol

 

And the reasoning for not giving it was pathetic. Can’t remember exactly what was relayed now but something like “his intention was to play the ball” lol

Would have taken gonads the size of busters for the officiating to give that penalty to Liverpool.Given the high stakes, global audience, pressure etc. they must have all been praying for full time and a draw. Imo based on how many of these follow thrus have been given and the danger of a high contact should have been a red card. oh well all hugs at the end.

arses get to relax a little they are still in pole position.

Not the most popular or liked I know but does he have a point here ?


Big name ref in the middle who maybe doesn’t like being overruled.

Definitely a foul by Doku and a stonewall pen. Can't believe the ref and VAR bottled it. Its like they are getting revenge on Klopp for his previous ref comments or they simply just want Man City to win it again.

 

110% pen and they bottled it.

Hiring a referee consultant in Mark Clattenburg is the most embarrassing thing a Premier League club has done.

 

Pathetic self-victimisation from Forest. 

You have to wonder if it is bound to backfire.


The PL refs know Clattenburg well as a mediocre ex-colleague.  And especially as a self-aggrandizing b**** who chased the money in Saudi, published an autobiography, and went on ESPN to critique their work to a huge audience in real time.  Now he's grabbing a few more pounds critiquing them directly to their bosses and in the media.  His whole career is to make a mockery of their code of omerta.

 

Could a conscious or subconscious desire to lift a middle finger to him and/or his new job shade marginal calls?

 

If intimidation is Marinakis’ intent, he’s screwed up yet again.

One of the refs already told him to get lost when he tried to go into the referee's room to speak to them at a ground last week.

And he probably feels he never made an error .

Painful watching Chelsea play out from a goalkick.

 

Gary Neville calling it out for what it is too :appl:

 

He was doing it the other week and he's doing it again tonight, thing is they're not the only team that do it and they're not the only team who struggle to do it/cause their own problems by doing it but they're the only team I notice he points it out with.

Well we do it and often get caught out in some way.

 

It’s as if managers and players have been conditioned to think it’s the only way to play !

 

Chelsea will probably be hoping their next spending spree will bring a few more Cole Palmers in .

Sterling is so selfish and wasteful in these situations, simple pass sidewards and Palmer has a much better chance.

 

Palmer also should be in the euro squad, has been exceptional in a frankly shite Chelsea side

Newcastle have a shite run til the end of the season and they could easily finish in 12th. 

That could mean a drop off of about 20m just in premier league prize money (compared to last season), not to mention the loss of European money. Will probably see them having to flog Guimares this summer, perhaps alongside players like Wilson, Lascelles etc

Surely Howe will go, can't see them being happy with a mid table finish 

I reckon there already lining up Mourinho take over in the summer. So how keeps even far north than Manchester. Didnt half moan about the commute from Manchester to London when he was man u manager.
