[Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Liverpool *** Official Match Thread ***

[birthofanorange]

Liverpool of old always struck me as a fair playing team, but they've turned into a team of hacking thugs.
Serves them right for losing what was (overall) a pretty even match.

I dont know how they finished that game still with 12 men on the field.

Really? Robertson has always been a thug, Mane was as well.

A trip to Bristol would be nice. Haven't been there in ages and a great place to speak a weekend.

Just got in and before I look at any other posts. 1st thing to say is
YES.

Second is it felt in the stadium that there were LOADS of bad decisions. I know we won, but fùck me. I was right behind Klopp and yiu could see he was sending on the old guard to go out and do some damage and so it transpired. Hard to tell but I'd like to see those incidents on TV.

I’ve only watched two games with my Liverpool-supporting boss, and they were the 3-0 and this game. Gotta watch more Brighton games with him, he’s our lucky charm.

I'm talking historically - they were never a team known for such foul play.

Because the ref gave something here, and not with the Ali Mac one.

I think that's how it works.

No, VAR should look at all possible reds. If the ref gives a yellow, but it's a clear & obv error, they get to change it to red. Sometimes you see them after looking at the screen pulling out the yellow again and doing the cancel signal, and then showing a red.

McCoist said they’d had the better chances in the second half

Glenn Murray said they were the better side but also said that Liverpool could easily have had 2 reds.

Mane’s elbows are legendary.

and outside the area.

What? In or out of the area does not determine whether VAR get involved.

 

[maltaseagull]

I want two of them to play each other

Man United always seem to get easy games. They will get another easy home draw.

We're going to get City or Spurs away.

Same here. first half was fairly even, second half was more like we were playing Leeds in 1971.

Given everything that has gone on this week what a team we have

Terry Butcher...

To be fair to Terry, his brain isn't what it was, and he doesn't think it's a foul unless there's at least a pint of blood lost

The pessimist in me says this is Liverpool all day long. They'll have come up with a strategy after last time and we're missing the players who are key to ours.

The optimist says RDZ will take the negative energy of the last few days and use it to turbo charge the 11 starters, whoever they are, finishing with the Italian for "lads, it's Liverpool" before we go out and smash it.

We'll see which bit of me was right at about half three.

The optimist won.

You don’t need to wait for the TV. Two blatant red cards. Fabinho was actually waiting to be sent off!!!!!
