Lukaku has touched the ball 15 times and none in the second half.

15 mins later...he touches it

Wonder what will happen when Tuchel wants to spend another £100m on a striker to try and compete with Liverpool/City. Who would pay more than £50m for lukaku?

I've wondered this twice and yet there always seems to be someone. Players like Morata and Lukaku just seem to always have a new suitor.

I’d happily take either of them at the moment

I reckon Tuchel wears that beanie hat to bed

This post match analysis is more entertaining

I've only seen it in a video on Twitter, and I'm a Liverpool fan but would say I'm generally pretty reasonable on decisions, but I think that's a pen. Yes, Jota missed his kick but the ball isn't moving that fast and if he doesn't get taken out I think he gets the ball and can put a cross in. It's debatable but it's far from the worst VAR decision I've seen this season

Just seen it properly on MOTD and I've changed my mind, not a penalty - Jota went into the keeper

 

[robfosters]

Yellow correct or should it have been a red?

 

[rebel rebel]

That's a straight red if it was the Arsenal player doing it.

An image isn't enough to decide if something is a red...

How much force was there, how fast were the players moving etc etc.

That's a straight red if it was the Arsenal player doing it.

Also, everyone knows Arsenal are a dirty side so they probably would have deserved it

A picture without context is not enough to judge anything, you need the lead up to the incident.

 

[ThundyCat]

Idiot fans, I’ll never understand that

Disgusting behaviour, I hope they're banned for life and heavily fined.

Definite red. Looks like he's dived in, off the floor with both feet.

Why do you try to be such a smartarse?

If a Burnley player did that to a Liverpool player, you’d be screaming blue murder for a red

Thats a horrendously harsh red.

 

[Shamikebab]

That is an absurd red

 

[ThundyCat]

Agreed, that is not a red.

This is one of the problems with how VAR is used. One cut-down clip from one angle in slow mo looks terrible, and that's the one the referees use to judge the incident. But when you have the whole context it's clearly not a red card.
