We’ve played full strength very good Liverpool teams at Anfield, played well, but gone away with a draw or loss and received zero credit, just the media laughing at how we didn’t win again. They’ve come to Goodison and played teams we’ve put out that have been injury ravaged, down to ten men, shafted by horrifying refereeing, yet no one cares afterwards, just more mocking if we’ve lost, or belittling if we drew.
Now all of a sudden when we win it has to come with a load of caveats? No it doesn’t. The conditions of every derby are different and if we’ve received criticism in the past regardless of the circumstances then they deserve it now. Not arsed about their injuries, we had to play Matthew Pennington at Anfield once and no one said anything after that game. The wind and lack of fans was the same for both teams.
