At times on this forum its fucking pitiful with some of the toys being thrown out of the pram for next to nothing to complain about.Do we really care? The last thing we want is for us to become a snowflake, offended by everything fan base like them. Let them print more Liverpool stories, it will only make it even sweeter when we win the League again so they can create a Petition for a Joint Premier League Winners Trophy the Weirdo's. Fuck em!

Some people are never happy unless they whinge about anything and everything.Unfortunately its the same posters again and again ...
We wouldn`t need to if people stopped whinging about owt and nowt. ;)There is constant whinging in this thread about the posters and posts in it.
As I understand it, the new rules were in force last season in the CL from the quarter final stage, even though they were not be common currency until this month. So Llorente should not have been able to score off his arm, elbow, or whatever was sticking out of his shoulder!
My understanding is that it was for defensive handball (Rose vs City, Otamendi vs Schalke, the Utd/PSG match). but not for attacking handball.
The only reference I've seen is something Rossetti said before the new laws were finalised, and make no mention of attacking handball. If there is anything about it, I've not seen it. I think the new laws on "not scoring off an arm" are new additions.
What I'm expecting is much kicking the ball at arms and screaming at the ref. I think that's what Mane did in the CL final, because that's how it's now reffed.
(and, er, I've helped to drag the media thread into VAR thread. oops).
We weren't stitched up this season. We conceded a bunch of goals at home and missed a penalty away from home.
The application of handball within the penalty area via VAR will be based on different criteria than if the ball came into contact with hand or arm outside the area. I think the sole purpose will be to benefit particular teams and disadvantage others.
Llorente 's handball never happened then ? Any contact with the arm or hand accidental or not in the penalty are is now considered an offence in the Champs league , the referee changed the rule on the night and we didnt go through , and yes with Kun's penalty we should have gone through by two clear goals. As for conceding a "bunch" of goals ' the Dippers conceded more goals in the Champs league than us , and won it.
No change there then.It's gonna be another season of a Scouse wankfest from the media.
The goals comment was intended to be only about the Spurs match, not the whole competition.[/QUOte
We didnt lose because we conceded a "bunch " of goals at home to Spurs , we lost because the referee didnt interpret UEFA's new handball rules. The result would have been 5-3.
