Rode our luck but that's a big win against a much improved Chelsea.
**** the ref.

Fun match to watch as a neutral. Well done Liverpool, but Chelsea will feel they could have won that

Such a weird match. I mentioned at the start of the weekend that I wasn't sure how Slot's style of play would work in these sorts of games and we got the win, deservedly so imo, so it's hard to be too unhappy but that could and should have been an easier win. At 1-0 Chelsea looked there for the taking and I can't help but think that last season we'd have made it 2 or 3 within 15 minutes of going ahead. Curtis Jones in many ways summed up the performance - he was really good and probably was the MOTM but at the same time it could have easily been so much better. The Gakpo offside goal, Jones just held onto the ball too long and Salah ends up drifting offside. Similarly the non penalty, Jones should be shooting and just making it 2-0 there.
The ref was all over the place today, almost making it up as they go along and never having any control of the game. Oh and Neville's an absolute gob*****. You can laugh now but his commentary of Liverpool games is just so desperate it's silly. It's to be expected from somebody that wets himself over the thought of dunking a custard cream in his tea though.
Finally it's been a bad weekend for Webb having appeared on the Overlap, banging on about the high bar for VAR overturns. I thought the Saliba challenge was a pretty clear red but once it wasn't given and what we've seen and heard about the high threshold for overturns, I was surprised it was given. Then we have the City winner today. Again I think the final decision wasn't wrong but it was hardly a clear error - a perfectly reasonable argument could be made that Silva was interfering. And then the Jones penalty. Those sorts of challenges could go either way but once it was given how on earth can you overturn it? Sanchez gets a touch on the ball but he's not disposed Jones and then wipes him out.

Onfield refs should not be var refs on their "days offs" Dedicated vars without any pressure either way from their so-called superiors.
We all know who said it and he's been wrong about pretty much everything he's said about Liverpool for the past 6 years.
adam cool dude?

The ref needs his bank account checking. Did everything to try and stop Liverpool winning.
Where can I send money to in order to fund this for future matches?

I believe the excuse is due to there being players closer to the incident, but we all know they aren't going to send off an opposition player inside 6 minutes against Liverpool.
