There would, Ederson basically kicked him up in the air, any referee not giving that should be sacked.

Oh @cleavers this is so, so, so terrible of me and I will definitely not go to heaven.... but when I read that post I burst out laughing at the first bit and in my head I said good old Eddie...... am I barred???? Will I be in trouble??
 
Relieved to get a point after a second half shit show.

The dippers showed much more mental strength than us. Ederson’s tackle was sheer fcukwittery. They grabbed momentum from that penalty goal and after that we looked shit scared of possession. Never thought I’d say that of a Pep side. On which subject, when we needed a magic moment to turn the tide, who goes off? The guy most likely to produce one.

Anyway, put that behind us and thank fcuk we didn’t lose.
 
Difficult for Haaland to get involved when the tactics were so negative for the second half.

He was on it first half, felt like he was everywhere and linking up play. Second half, non-existent but then he should’ve made something happen. Especially against an academy CB.
 
Played well in the first half and I thought we controlled the game. We went to pieces after the penalty though, the midfield was no where to be seen. We wanted far too long on the ball and at times struggled to pass to a blue shirt. Things improved slightly with the introduction of Kovacic but by that stage we were all over the place.
Pity, I really, really wanted the win, not just to go top but to actually win there. It is more the below par performance from a number of players, we looked bereft of ideas at times and just managed to drag ourselves over the line for the point.
I like Ake, alot, and yes it was a slightly under hit pass back but I thought Ederson was a bit daft to come recklessly charging out the way he did. Ake was by no means the only player to under/over/miss hit a pass today.
Another of those what might have been games.

Sorry but we aren't good enough, we've just not been at the races this season, I just hope now we can string some good games together and win the Champs League

We aren't good enough for what? We're a point off Arse and Liverpool with 30 to play for and in the quarter finals of both major k.o. comps that after not being at our scintillating best for most of the season.

The only thing shocking about today is how many fans have so little faith in us, especially given our recent history. I could understand it if we were trying to win it for the first time, but IIRC this time last season we were only one point better off but 6 points behind Arsenal.

what the fuck are you on about?

We hoofed the ball away most of the 2nd half and it just came back. They could have had 3 or 4 because we were fucking shite. If that 2nd half was Pep purist ball for you I will gladly take a batch of whatever you have smoked.
And don't fucking insinuate that me or anyone else are dippers after that. People are well within their rights to be disappointed today

It’s hard for him to play well when we had so little control. But his effort was shocking. Didn’t seriously press anyone. Shit himself when 1v1 with Van Dick.

First half 1 on 1 with van dijk I thought he did well. Let’s not deny van dijk is probably the best one on one defender in world football. We just don’t create much simple as and Haaland needs chances.

didn’t like Kev’s dissent to Pep. Kev didn’t impose himself and Pep was totally right to sub him. It didn’t look good on tv either. Kev should have walked off ashamed of his performance today. He offered nothing ( still not sure if he’s 100 fit to be fair to him) the right subs at the right time from Pep and we looked a little better too. None of our stars showed today, again the Anfield freeze. Great point to take back and very proud of this team as always.

I'm assuming that Pep will be having a chat with Kev about that. Whatever about Kev being an outstanding player, you can't go showing dissent/displeasure with the manager in public. Say what has to be said in the privacy of the training facility. That was disappointing from Kev.

I don't think so, no, when you do see it, you'll see how bad it was, I don't know why he did really, it wasn't a nailed on goal, it was a poor pass from Nathan, but a penalty or goal still didn't have to be the outcome.
