Weekend 5/6 March - Other Games

Not sure how you can say we were happy to settle for a point.

[Sour Mash]

The decision could have been reviewed and the correct decision made and it would have taken no more time than the Liverpool

players did in their surrounding the ref

it wouldn't have been over turned though, so would have been a waste of time.

[Sour Mash]

Unlike us, Liverpool when down to 10 men weren't happy settling for a point

What should we have done differently having gone down to 10?

Yeah I'm really annoyed we didn't go for the winner after we equalised yesterday......

[Shroppie]

Well we scored with ten men and with pretty much the last kick of the game so.........

And with a real goal

Why are you so sure?

Never a pen IMO

Yeah, we had plenty of time after VVD scored

There was contact on the attacking player from the defender. You're then just down to interpretation of the vent and the referee and linesman on the spot have as good an interpretation as anyone. The fact that plenty of pundits have said it was a pen shows there is doubt, therefore the decision would stand and would take ages to deliberate over.

Plenty of pundits?

Carragher bias scoucer and Henry who said he had to be convinced by his Scouse co summariser

So yes there was doubt and not clear like it should be so not a pen IMO

[S-Clarke]

The quality in this league this year is absolutely diabolical. This WBA v Utd game sums it all up.

I don't think you understand the point, so we'll leave it there.

[Shroppie]

Unbelievable comments from Van Gaal re sending off. Basically the ref doesn't know Mata well enough or he would have known he's never been sent off before and is really nice, so should have shown leniency.

 

In other words, should be influenced by who the player is. And his reputation.

 

So reassuring to know Jose shouldn't have been sent off yesterday, except he doesn't play for a big club so perhaps he should. And Wanyama clearly needs sending off every game.

Never penalty.... awful refereeing yet again

 

You must have missed his foot getting clipped.

In your haste to be clever you missed the point. As soon as we went down to 10 men Koeman withdrew a striker (Mane) and Replaced Fonte with Yoshida, suggesting he was content to hold onto what we had, then a 0-0 draw. Even when Liverpool were level with Palace and with 10 men they didn't settle for a point

Liverpool didn't lose a CB though. I can't think any of any manager, who goes down to 10 men, playing with 1 CB. Almost always you take off an attacking player and firm up the back. Seeing as we penned Sunderland back in to their own area and battered them after going a goal down with only 10 men I think you're being overly critical.

Liverpool were already losing when their man was sent off and it wasn't a CB that had been shown red. Quite a clear difference

Accept but even when they pulled back to 1-1 they still kept pressing and they were the away side

So exactly like saints then who penned Sunderland into their own area despite only having 10 men and scored

Yes once we had fallen behind when we had nothing to lose by attacking, but when when Fonte went it was 0-0 and then taking off Mane for Yoshida tells me Koeman was happy then for a point

Nothing clever just a fact....

Different a views I guess FF but my thought was taking off an ineffective player to bring back presence in defence to stop us going behind (I know that didn't happen, but you can follow the thought).
