[YMJ]

I love the new handball rule.

 

[BlueDraka]

James makes us tick. Everything good came from him. They tried to kick him,close him down. He came through. Privileged to watch this great player

 

[blue to the bone]

We are still not good enough.
Maybe next season we will be.
But not this season.

To do what ?
We are certainly good enough to get Europe . That's huge progress

 

[MacAttack1878]

Obviously jordan man of the match for that glorious tackle

Barely touched him

 

[MockBu4]

Think I've Aged 10 years in that last 10 mins oh my god

been there mate, I think I know the reason why my hairs falling off too early

 

[LinekersLegs]

Can‘t believe you got up this early for a derby

I was really regretting it when Henderson scored!

 

[JohnTheBlue]

Pundits just said "technically it is offside"

Shut it then, It's rightfully disallowed

 

[collymcd]

We were lucky in the end but that's still a frustrating performance. If we had played like previously, they were there for the taking. So many of our players looked well off the pace.

Hopefully that performance gives us reason to refocus and keep putting the hard work in.

 

[Earwigjoe]

Top of the league, unbeaten and VAR going our way. UTFT.

Bit of luck with refereeing decisions and VAR for a change. Certainly when it comes to derbies.

Anybody who thought there wasn't going to be a backlash from their heavy defeat last time out were mistaken. This is a very good Liverpool side we played today. We caught them on the rebound from a heavy defeat and at a time when we were badly affected from the International break and injuries to key players leading upto the game. To come from behind twice shows tremendous resilience and to get a draw when we were clearly not at our best is also a good sign.

I'll happily take a point today.

Pickford my MOM today although I probably wouldn't be saying that if it wasn't for VAR.

 

[dubfade]

almost makes up for 10 yrs of biased officiating in the derby

 

[Gerbs]

Gomes played so so slow today. Was a major weak link against a pressing team like liverpool

 

[billyblue80]

Insane game. Just dont get why we cant keep it like we do in other games. We seem to piss our kecks in this game every season. At least we fought back but a bit of belief and we could beat these. Not nearly enough service for DCL looked what he did when we got it to him. Pickford is a liability I am afraid.

 

[everton1953]

Pickford cemented his place by this display.
