Granted, Chiesa was the only Liverpool name I even recognized. They rolled the dice with the yutes.

Nunez, Diaz, Jota and Chiesa should have been able to get something done against the worst team in the Championship even if Liverpool put out a clearly B side.

I am at work. Saw the score, swore, and walked back up front.

There's a pretty good story behind this club this season.

Yeah, that's awesome

Liverpool fielded half a youth team, but played like absolute dog ****. Elliott in particular was terrible -- as one of the players who needed to step up and run the show. Lost track of the passes straight out, straight to someone in Green, or lost thru a mistouch. Just awful even given the ~12 players rested. Congrats to PA.

Well, theres always the Europa Cup!!

I thought Chiesa was pretty poor too. Often dribbling at 1 guy and losing it. I always liked him in Italy - never understood why he wasn't a monster there... Hoping he finds his touch in England, but this wasn't that day.

Just saw Chiesa lost possession 29 times. And Elliott's passing accuracy was 71%.

So, yeah

No City vs Real Madrid in the CL talk?
Sporting vs Dortmund?
PSG winning 3-0?

Guessing Juve vs PSV is being discussed in the National Team thread....

 

[B Maverick]

Boy, that escalated quickly.

19' 1-0 City
60' 1-1
80' 2-1 City
86' 2-2
92' 2-3 Real Madrid

Can Santi play for Milan today vs his old team or is he cup-tied?

 

[encaitar]

Can Santi play for Milan today vs his old team or is he cup-tied?

Yes, he can play against Feyenoord. I don't remember when they changed that, but he's registered on their Champions League roster with no restrictions.

it's their "everybody's excited about" lineup up front- Santi ahead of Leao, Felix, CP

and of course they're down 0-1 early.

Everton played 100 minutes with their only plan being to con the ref into a red card, then only managed to execute it after the game had ended.

**** those guys. Can't wait to get them back at Anfield and watch the hiding.

 

[Eephus]

I'm a neutral but that was awesome

 

[Dinsy Ejotuz]

Everton are fighting relegation (I don't actually care about Everton, but I'm committing to the bit)

I take it back.

 

[The Gator]

Well that was…something

 

[titusbramble]

Big three points for us tonight. Obviously we score the winner about two minutes after I leave to get my train

Sorry about that tears comment!

What a great match though. Definitely can understand Liverpool fans being salty about that first goal. But both sides were embellishing to get the whistle.

By the way, the last Derby in Goodison Park. Glad it was a good one!

 

[B Maverick]

Wait, so Arnie Slot got a red card for shaking the ref's hand to hard post game?

And why did Dracoure see red? From the replays it looked like Curtis Jones went after him. Jones did see red too, as did a Liverpool assistant coach.

Apparently, the league released a statement that Slot was being suspended two matches for abusive language, but the statement has since been deleted as they will take more time to review tape of the exchange.

I thought Doucoure got a second yellow for taunting the away fans rather than a straight up red.

Makes sense for Douncoure if that's what it was. Just saw red cards everywhere.

I also wouldn't put it past this ref to card someone for a rough handshake. Or a snide comment.

Doucoure and Curtis Jones' red cards (after FT) were both second yellows.

A UEFA Conference League classic today - Borac Banja Luka v Olimpija Ljubljana at Gradski Stadion in Banja Luka, Bosnia and Herzegovina. Strap in boys, this one could be an all timer.

According to the aforementioned lip reader, Slot said "great game" to the official.

In which Michael Oliver showed him RED

Well, because it's Oliver.. he knows anybody telling him "great game" is yanking his chain.

 

[Dinsy Ejotuz]

Liverpool were whistled for a foul every 90 seconds out of possession. While Everton got hit once every 6.5 minutes without the ball. Sure.

Not sure what more Salah needs to do to get a call, but man it's bad.

 

[Dinsy Ejotuz]

Also, holy ****, but I think it's true... it's plausible at least.

There has never been a POC reffing in the top flight of English football (since I've been watching).

If you are saying what I think you are saying, Uriah Rennie certainly was, and I believe we had someone else pick up one of our games towards the back end of last season

Edit - Yep, ironically Sam Allison did us v Luton last season. But I can understand if you missed that one

Michael Oliver called this a dive

 

[bigbottom]

Everton keeps rolling! 4-1-1 in league play since our manager switch. Now 13 points clear of relegation.

 

[titusbramble]

Blades win, Georgians win, FC United win and Stockport win. Today was a good day

Kid's game reminds me of Vinnie Jones.

 

[Dinsy Ejotuz]

I'd be pretty upset if that PK was awarded against Liverpool. Diaz fouls the defender to get the pass thru to him and then plays the ball straight out before pretty marginal contact from the keeper.
