Noticed we got no FK's around their box that I can recall , certainly not after Coutinho came on

I was desperate for him to get an opportunity. Oliver certainly did a number on us,

He gave us lots of meaningless fks at the start , none in really dangerous areas, then gave us a stick on pen which he couldn't not give. After that everything went their way and instead of what should have been a couple of RC offences he booked a couple of our lads for nothing

 

A Webbesque effort from Michael Oliver yesterday and his career at OT is safe ,

Ive been saying that Oliver is the best ref in the Prem(not much of a compliment really) but he was shocking yesterday,he shit himself and if he had any bottle would have sent Rooney off for that shocker on Milner. Same way Mike Dean didnt send Barkeley off in the derby.

Clattenburg is by far the best ref in the league, Imo. Mike Dean is comfortably the worst and the rest are pretty much equally shite. That being said, refs will always miss/bottle stuff so I think it's pointless to complain. Nothing can really be done about it unless you build some kind of robot official.

No robot required. Video refereeing/ a challenge system could clean the game of the widespread player and official cheating probably overnight, or over a summer.

Twitter noticed something odd about Trent Alexander-Arnold's body on Sky Sports

 

Trent Alexander-Arnold will never forget his full Premier League debut for Liverpool.

 

Jurgen Klopp threw the 18-year-old in at the deep end and started him at Old Trafford in a titanic clash against their arch-rivals.

 

While the youngster experienced a few nervy moments, he coped remarkably well on the big stage and didn’t allow Anthony Martial any opportunity to exploit him.

 

However, not everything went Alexander-Arnold’s way.

 

With Nathaniel Clyne playing every minute of the Premier League before Sunday’s match with United, you can’t really blame Sky Sports for being caught by surprise at his absence.

 

Clyne had picked up a rib injury ahead of the game and, as a result, was sidelined.

 

With Joe Gomez still slowly returning from a long-term injury and Alberto Moreno not being considered to play left back - allowing James Milner to switch the right back - Jurgen Klopp had no alternative but to play Alexander-Arnold.

 

Now, Sky Sports are pretty adept at planning for big matches but they failed to get the youngster to do the ‘green screen walk’ before Sunday.

 

This meant that, when the teams were displayed before the match, they had no body or legs for Alexander-Arnold.

 

So what did they do?

 

They stuck his head on the body and legs of Gomez.

 

While their Photoshopping skills were pretty impressive, fans noticed one big problem. Alexander-Arnold has the number 12 shorts on. His shirt number? 66.

 

While that was the biggest giveaway, the fact that Gomez is fairly bulky and Alexander-Arnold is very skinny and slim in was another clue.

 

Of course, something like this was never going to go unnoticed and Twitter was full of people pointing out Sky Sports’ cheeky attempt:

On the pitch, everything went pretty smoothly for the highly-rated youngster as he helped his side pick up a respectable 1-1 draw with United.

 

And his boss sang his praises following the match.

 

“Nice, eh?” Klopp said.

 

“It was clear in the beginning. Then you see Anthony Martial, one of the quickest players in the Premier League, in the first two situations it was difficult and he needed a little bit of time to adapt. But then he did brilliantly.

 

“All the boys like him and so they wanted to help him.”

 

Alexander-Arnold now looks set to continue at right-back after his encouraging performance during Liverpool’s draw. The Reds face a long trip to Plymouth on Wednesday to play their FA Cup third round replay following their 0-0 draw at Anfield last week.

 

Clyne will no doubt come straight back in as soon as he's fit but Liverpool fans can at least be safe in the knowledge that the future at right back is in very good hands.

Maybe already mentioned but wtf

 

"The France midfielder is set to avoid punishment for the fracas, even though replays clearly showed grabbing Henderson in the neck area with his left forearm before throwing him to the turf. The FA believes that it is unlikely to be able to persuade a panel of three former referees that the incident merited a red card"

So if this is true, what they're basically saying is that it is now ok to literally throw/wrestle an opposition player to the ground off the ball as you won't get sent off for it? You might even get away with not being booked? I'll try that in my next game and see where it leads.
