We fought hard today as I knew we would. Again stupid mistakes at the back cost us. Really like the structure 4-3-3 gives us. Hope we continue in this formation. Allan and Doucs did their thing. Feel Richy isn't as effective up front than he is on the left. Weren't expecting anything from this so we move. Still a lot to play for.

 

[Frenk]

Which one is it, offside before, or not enough evidence. If it’s the latter then nbc made up the offside ruling. This is so unbelievably corrupt and the media just seem to just back them up.

 

[Lee Smith]

Obviously everyone will be sitting in the dressing room totally deflated after that, but Lampard needs to change the negative into a positive, say to the lads "OK, so we lost, but that was better, everyone will see that we were cheated out of at least a point, EVERYONE. But what was the lasting impression that the fans took away? That we were done, royally done and not that we didn't compete. Had that finished as a draw, the fans would've been made up and cheered us off. They know the score, we played well today, they were expected to beat us comprehensively, but they got lucky. NOW, go out and take luck out of the equation in future, there's clearly an agenda at work here, so let's remove that factor, play like we did today, put the yards in and luck will take care of itself"
There is clearly one rule for the sky six and another for the unfashionable clubs, we need to accept that, move on and overcome it, win some games and stay up in spite of them

Good post, but your user name has just pissed me off even more mate

So you didn’t answer the question. I wonder why.

What was the question?

 

[longers]

It possibly being 1mm offside (debatable) will surely be the excuse they go with, that way they can justify why they didn't call the ref over to the monitor.

 

[banno]

Allan and Doucoure absolutely brilliant until energy levels diminished

As for Keane, it's just such a shame our one defender that can consistently stay fit happens to be the worst of the lot. And he is, make no bones about it.

Aye, sorry about that mate, I had no idea 8 years ago that it would be so poignant or relevant

Nope, they’ve already come out and said it wasn’t clear and obvious handball. Which is incredible.

Usmanov got Putin working on a plan as we speak - probably in bad taste that but fuming here at EPL corruption

 

[carolinablue232]

All the pundits saying handball and VAR got it wrong

Joke refs got it wrong twice. The first was Tierney not blowing for it in the first place. Literally happened right in front of his face.

Pep supposedly quoted as saying he was told it was because it was offside

 

[Sassy Colombian]

That's never offside. The PL needs to punish the ref but probably won't be happening
