But I thought it was only bent in favour of Liverpool and Man U ?
Yes, but not in the same year.
Liverpool are quite good, and are "joint top" with a team who clearly aren't.
Klopp is confused, because last year there are at least a couple more penalties they would have had. Confidence saps quickly. Opposing teams think they have a chance.
Ole is on a roll, coaching is easy, he's sussed it - "get in the box, trip yourself up and fall over". Penalty. (SOO thread no longer necessary)
I've always thought it was bent. Not to favour one team but to favour a story. Utd were done over in the game v Wigan in our first Prem win, they were ahead of us and it made the telly more interesting for the "Match of the Century" - they thought Utd would win anyway. We won every game in the run in, they lost to us, drew (ha ha) with Everton, so we wo on GD.
This year may be the Utd recovery / redemption story. But I doubt even Sky can do it with that shower of .... without 50 pens, which really would stand out.
So this year is - the most even league ever. And we're showing pretty much every game. So loads of games matter. Great telly. Watch it. £££
Rant. red wine.
