And we just got a freekick for the same thing that we didn't get a penalty for, love the consistency.

I have had to endure wolves 4 times already the last year and now need to do it another two times!
If the player throws himself down claiming for a penalty like that then he's either been fouled or is exaggerating contact and trying to con the ref (simulation), natural contact happens all of the time but usually players don't fall over dramatically demanding a free kick/penalty. If he'd stayed on his feet then I could understand the argument of it not being either a foul or simulation but if referees feel there is "not enough contact" to warrant a foul then why is falling down and claiming a penalty in such a situation acceptable.

Boro in form at the minute, potential upset on the cards?
I can't see what Mourinho is trying to get this team to do.
I read that Jose doesn't agree with teaching players set patterns of play and instead tries to help them play spontaneously. Against top level opposition I can see how the randomness can create an edge and reduce the chances of an attack being neutered but in the majority of matches, it makes it needlessly difficult because the team doesn't have a plan.

Klopp really doesn't like domestic cups and doesn't care about the fact we're playing Everton. Going to need some luck to win today with that side.
But as I said, a ref cannot give a pen unless he's sure it was. He's not going to book somebody for diving when he thinks it was probably a foul and equally VAR cannot give him a yellow under the current regulations.
The first part isn't necessarily true. A player can be knocked to the ground and believe he's fouled without it being a foul.

Bit concerned Gomez is playing tbh, given how well he's performing now after taking a while to get back up to speed we should be wrapping him up in cotton wool. His pace makes our defensive line so much stronger even if Matip is a better overall defender.
FA Cup can **** off tbh, keeping players fit for the CL and League is all that matters.

Ox on the bench 2 which is nice to see
What a load of old dross. Jose has been saying he will sort everything once he has time on the training ground with the squad after the December rush of games. If arteta can do it during December I don't know why Jose has deferred to January
Yup, I felt he was in good form prior to his injury as well

Wondered why Liverpool are 5/2, that's a fairly weak lineup.
