The Mane one against the mancs was as innocuous and accidental as you're likely to see, yet if there's a positive about the new interpretation is that it should make decisions far more black and white. 

 

I wonder what the excuse is here.

The excuse is that the laws are different for a handball in the buildup to a goal, whereas defenders get more benefit of the doubt. Rightly so imo, would be ridiculous if a pen was given for that

How was that seriously supposed to be a penalty exactly? It comes off his legs and hits his arms point blank. Not sure why its even up for debate.

Consistency. If Mane's goal last week was disallowed because of his handball being deemed an offence then so too should Stone here.

 

I take your point though mate, and fully agree with tbh. The refs are useless fucking cheats.

In which case I look forward to a classic Liverpool break from defending a corner that results in a Salah goal, starting from a deflection off Lovren's arm.

He'll go down as one of the all time PL greats if he stays at City i reckon. The little rat.

 

TBF, he's a good player, but I fucking hate him.

If you Google Jack Grealish highlights you probably get pictures of his barnet, the sunbed hogging, leg shaving ponce.

 

Reckon he'd look gash for us, he'd have to work in a M/F that wouldn't suit his game. At Villa he's their linchpin, for us he'd have to get stuck in.
