What a trio they were. World class all three.

I think Anthony will give Bruno a run for his money in the punchable stakes.

And even though it was 7-0 the reffing was deplorable.
Missed fouls on Salah.
Bruno should have got yellow for simulation.
McTominay should have got red card.
Lots of little bits that were conveniently missed.

The fan who ran on the pitch to celebrated and accidently rammed into Robbo was a 16 year old kid. What an idiot!
He now faces a potential lifetime ban. How come nobody near him stopped him? :thinking: Or he sped off too fast.

Hannibal is on loan, else would have suited perfectly for them the way they were playing the last 20.

Can make a Manchester XI

Ederson Walker Martinez Antony Bernardo Foden Bruno ā€¦ surely missing a few.

The captain would be so difficult to choose.

He didnā€™t get them all, but I was pleasantly surprised how many calls for little tugs, blocks and clips Salah got.

The team was on the ball, I get that, but as a fan I think I have a heightened level of perceived risk when watching United games in particular. Another identical example was the minute after the opener where they lumped the ball down and Weghorst had the shot that we blocked over before the flag went up; it looked like an issue in real time but again the actual threat was naught once the flag went up.

Yepā€¦the first forearm smash needed a ticketā€¦but noā€¦

Yeah, there were at least 3 occasions where the ref allowed the game to play on because the flag didnt go up until after weā€™d wont he ball back and that gave an exaggerated perception of how at risk we were

Thatā€™ll become a separate team in itself. Legends XI type.

Haha I wondered what to call him myself but surmised a bang average midfielder with a punchable face didnā€™t make him a ā€œlegendā€ in any sense. :joy: Still we have some lads showing up for the legends matches (Salif Diao sticks out from a recent one) who are nice guys but werenā€™t exactly legends if weā€™re being serious.

Yep defo. Watching on TV there was a through ball for Rasford?? Straight away I was confident, offside I inmediately said. The commentators went on for about 2 mins about dangerous the ball was etc etc, Liverpool need to be alert, All the time Iā€™m offside mate!!! Finally he said, I think it was offside. Annoying!!

One of the few games where I have forgotten that we still have Diaz.
