Liverpool were poor again, but Friend showed a clear bias against Liverpool for the whole game. He wasn’t quite as bad in the second half.


Friends decisions didn’t lead to Liverpool losing the game, but that’s not why I recorded this. It was to see if I was imagining how bad the referees are.

Have to say we can all be sad sometimes, but to have sat and watched the game that way. No doubt having to keep pausing it does take the biscuit.
You can almost imagine him getting more and more annoyed as he went on with any semblance of impartiality disappearing after about 5minutes.
The thing is, regardless of what he has achieved at Liverpool - and to be fair he's done what he promised in his first press conference when he said he'd win them the Premier League title - this run of results isn't so much as a blip as a full blown crisis which has similarities to his final season at Dortmund, and those calling for him to go do have a point. If Pep had presided over a run like that then this forum would be in total meltdown.

It truly is a staggering regression though. Nobody who predicted burnout, luck running out with injuries, etc, could've predicted a sequence of results as bad as this. United must be kicking themselves that they didn't go for it more back in January at Anfield, otherwise it could well be 7 home league defeats on the spin. I would add though that I thought they played quite well in the first half of our game there and after Gundogan missed the penalty, it was definitely in the balance at half time. Thankfully we stepped it up hugely in the second half and although they drew level, we played them off the park in the end.
A completely mad season and series of events and it does appear that the stars are maybe aligning for him to walk away.
It would be the same for any well thought of English manger should Southgate go from his job. He has done what he said and with the downturn, a possible feeling that he isn't being supported by FSG and a desire to maybe closer to family back home. He could really be thinking about his position.
I wonder if we could steal Allardyce from WBA to save us from relegation?
 
I would be happy with FA cup and Thursday nights for Everton in the next few months
You haven't spent 30 years telling everyone that you're European royalty and the last 2 years telling everyone that you're going to dominate the league for a decade though I'm guessing?
 
It's like the script is writing itself for Slippy G to return.

Who would want to be a DJ in Liverpool. They have not been able to work due to Covid, then when things open back up again, they may have to run the gauntlet of having Gerrard back in the town, with the fear of getting punched for not playing Phil Collins for him!
Can you feel it coming in the air tonight..?
 
And turned into a cockney pub team by signing the likes of Ruddock and Dicks. Mind you both would probably get into their current team even if they are both in their 50's.
With the help of some top quality engine oil they could grease Ruddock up and wedge him between the posts. They would never concede another goal.
