Greenlizard0 Premier League Football Thread ** spoilers ** [25th - 27th August 2023]

Better with 10 men for the second week running but happy to only be 1-0 down.

 

[Bigpig]

Is there a football match on or something?

 

[Calpol]

Newcastle are quite a physical side. I'm impressed by their workrate and appetite particularly at home. They blew Villa away and have developed a good habit of starting fast. I wish United ( of Manchester ) played like that. I thought Newcastle might have a case of second season and clearly CL football has an impact but they've made a good start.

lol at that view of Trent throwing the ball half way down the pitch and people on here claiming he just casually tossed the ball back to where he thought he'd get a free kick from

 

[Trusty]

Good i'm not the only one, Carra doesn't think it's a straight red either

 

[Tombstone]

Hmmm... 12-1 for Trent to be sent off in the 2nd half. Thats too tempting for me to not pop a tenner on

You're right like. A completely unbiased viewpoint.

I'm with Lewis Hamilton in the studio, on the fence.

Gotta love Carraghers logic - you can't give a card for denying a clear goalscoring opportunity as long as you make sure to wipe the player out before it's 'clear'

 

[fez]

Oh Carragher, really. He was clean through on goal without VVD wiping him out. Quite the mental gymnastics. Trent shouldn't be on the pitch either.

 

[Colonel_Klinck]

lol Carragher with a face like a slapped arse That was clearly going to be a goal scoring opportunity and so a red. The guy is a joke and shouldn't be anywhere near Liverpool games.

It's one of those yellows where you're literally on thin ice after, any mistake or foul play and you're getting a 2nd yellow. But it doesn't hit the threshold of a straight red for me. Lewis should give an opinion though, he's an ex pro.

No its a red because the player is clean though on goal on the edge of the penalty area.

Whatever happened to trying to keep 22 players on the pitch eh

I like Carra but he should try to be a bit more objective when critiquing Liverpool games.

 

[Purdy]

Another foul as we counter

@Trusty have you been posting to the BBC?

Trent booked for being shoved, Van Dijk sent off for getting the ball? Are we going to get an explanation for this one?

 

[CliffyG]

Got to laugh, number of fouls by Joelinton, ref has a word with him, guess to say cut it out, 1 min later he kicks clean through a player and no booking. Maybe ref told him him I'll give you 10 more fouls

Happens every game I see him in. Runs round like a bull in a china shop and never gets brought up for it.

Neville trolling Carra on comms!
