@Walshy07 ???
At least a yellow card should have been given
I consider it a minor miracle that they didn’t contrive to send off Díaz when he challenged the GK.
There’s no way that was attempt to play the ball, unless he was looking for it down the back of his shirt.
Absolutely glorious half first, everybody a 10/10!!!
Get in the red men!!! The allmighty reds!!!
How in the fuck does Gross not get at least a yellow card? Assaulted him! Thought he should have got yellow for his challenge on Darwin early on. Never tried to play the ball, just cut Nunez off.
Somebody just reminded me that the AFCON is in January. Salah is so important to us. Fuck the Saudis as well, you aint having him.
Since they gave the pen not really a red
Probably deserved yellow though
At half time we need to remind mac allister his team are in Red
the only thing sweeter than an undeserved lead away is an undeserved win away…so here’s hoping…
Think I’m gonna vote for my MOTM’s now in the post match thread.
Mo Szobo and Virg.
Be sure to thank the wee streak of piss for the good luck shite!
It’s not debatable. A shirt pull is not an offense that gets you out of. A red card. The only debate is over dogso and there is surely no debate there. This is an indefensible decision. What they are going to argue is player on the line makes 2 players to get the ball by even though the goalie wa already taken out of the play by the angle.
This is the description from the bbc update
Bart Verbruggen’s pass to Pascal Gross in the Albion box is awful and Dominik Szoboszlai is on him in a flash. The German is struggling and has to drag down his rival to stop him getting an effort on goal.
Should be yellow, I thought it was automatic on issuing a yellow card as that what always happens, maybe I’m wrong
i really would take elliot off, macca needs more protection
It was a big leap forward. They allowed the goal tomstand
A bit premature here. You might get away with that in the bedroom, but not here.
This is a house of learned doctors…
Poor half but the quality up top turned it around.
For me, Szobo needs to help Mac Allister out by dropping deeper. Mac Allister is not capable of covering that much space on his own. Don’t know why there are shouts for Endo to directly replace Mac Allister, he’s the exact same with less quality on the ball. The team shape is wrong there.
Clinical from Salah. Nunez has had a good game but the service has been terrible. Diaz and Elliot not in it at all from wide.
Change the shape a touch before changing the players, we have the quality on the pitch to play much better in the second half.

Dan: And that my friends, is why Mo Salah is priceless. Game changer.
James: Is there any point in scoring first against Liverpool? All it seems to do is remind them how good their attack is!
