Yep an Inter fan, but that corruption was beyond anything Juve have ever pulled in Italy. I've always hated Man U fans and today just tipped me over the edge, stand by what I said.

lol, try watching what happened to Watford yesterday. Anyway enjoy your ban.

I'd have to agree with those saying United deserved it. Probably not by much but I couldn't argue with a United win after watching that. They looked far more threatening for the most part. I thought Liverpool were awful once they crossed into United's half.

Liverpool fans should be delighted with the point considering how that game went. Still unbeaten and 6 in front with one of their toughest matches out of the way.

United might be shyte most of the time but there was always a chance they'd step it up against Liverpool, and they did.

What game did you watch, they created nothing. This narrative always comes out when the mid table team puts it up against top of the league.

A disgusting and juvenile comment that no actual Liverpool fan would want to be associated with.

How that CL night in here is easily forgotten.

The match.

Great argument.

"We deserved to win the game because we did"

"Here's all the stats showing Liverpool attacked more than United whilst having 68% possession. Their goal also wasn't controversial unlike United"

"Durr we won based on the match"

MD1990 · 20-10-2019 7:00pm

VAR is becoming a huge problem.

I dont if the referee's are so arrogant to think they cant get anything wrong but why they refuse to go look at the screen like in other leagues is meaning VAR is only really working mostly for Offsides.

Atkinson just gave everything to Man Utd today & I wasnt surprised. He has done that before against Liverpool.

2 shots on target and 39% possession is deserving of a win these days supposedly...Says a lot.

For the record, thought a draw was very fair to both teams.

“Everyone is always against us”

Good lord lads. Ye were **** today, at least have the humility to recognise that much.

biggest shock of the day is Liverpool and Utd fans not derailing the thread but an Inter fan.
the way the match panned out is probably a disappointment for everyone and none of us can be unhappy with a point, except me I'm unhappy

Yup I only wish they had done this when Mane's dive won a late penalty a few weeks back,I remember the uproar in the pool thread likening was only yesterday when VAR didnt overturn a blatantly poor decision

You didn’t speak too soon gimli, if a United fan wants to imply that I made or condoned any “disgusting and juvenile comments” as I put it on that night in Kiev, I’ll rightly not stand for it.

It’s no wonder there’s so much shît between the two sets of fans in here when everyone is permanently tarred with the same brush if one side does something wrong.

Thought we played well, hopefully utd bring the same performance next week. No saltiness here, was a fair result tbf. Utd had the first half, ye had the second. Like i said, from an utd point of view, bring the same performance next week but a better second half.

If United are blaming Ole for the draw yous have to ask yourself would you have taken it pre game.

I thought United played well albeit Liverpool very poor. Liverpool late goal strikes again and their record continues.

From both perspective a good point. Liverpool playing so bad but getting a point a sign of title contenders.

United stepped up and if Ole can drag that motivation from the players against other side's they should comfortable get Top 6.

Young is getting a slating but thought he played well aside from the goal they conceded.

As usual talking sense in the middle of all the madness that goes on here

How were we robbed? It was our own fault. We went asleep. No arguments from me.

Are you accusing me of that? Read my previous post, and either accuse me of it or don’t. No idea why I’m taking such shît for something another Liverpool poster said over a year ago.

Not accusing anybody of anything. Just clearing up what the other poster was referring to.

But you already knew that and just wanted to throw up the GIF of Henderson lifting the trophy. To try 1 up that person.

The same Henderson that Pool fans were slating all game saying he's useless. Amazing if anything.

ThunbergsAreGo · 20-10-2019 7:19pm

Would have been a draw either way but this weekend has shown VAR is more of a problem then a solution

VAR on the whole is great but just needs consistency.

AidoEirE · 20-10-2019 7:23pm

I seen mentioned before with var, they should do like they do with the rugby, where you can hear the ref and var room people talk about the situation.
Think its a brilliant idea.

s8n · 20-10-2019 7:25pm

weird performance from the greatest team to have ever played any team sport in the entire history of all sport.

Liverpool just didn't turn up (against the worst united team in living memory)

If you’re not, then kindly amend your post and we’ll forget all about it, because it reads an awful lot like you are.

Yes, I responded with a quip. Given the nature of the post I quoted, it was the least it warranted tbh. I didn’t wrongly accuse anyone of abusing other posters, for example.

Moving on from this little exchange now, no good will come from it.

Will happily move on. The you's is referred to Liverpool fans at the time. Not specifically to you. Nor did I wrongly accuse anyone of anything.

I merely asked did Liverpool fans do the same that year

Edit: If you wish to take it to PM will gladly do so. Don't want to derail the thread further.

I'm just glad the game is over with. Dread games against Utd and find them tough to watch.

Thought we deserved the point in the end but nothing more. Found it really tough in the final third to create dangerous moments due to how well Utd set up and played in defence. They got tight to our main ball players and didn't give us space to play. Our passing wasn't quite good enough to play around the tight marking. Nullified our fullbacks for the majority of the game. The Utd players put in a shift as expected.

As for VAR I think a pattern is beginning to show. It appears that atleast for the Premier League VAR will only overrule the ref for an offside or a handball. VAR doesn't seem to overrule the ref for fouls. There was slight contact by Lindelof on Origi which is usually blown for a foul but I never expected VAR to overrule the goal based on what I have seen in previous games where VAR did not change the ref's decision for more obvious fouls. I think the VAR decisions today were consistent with how I have seen it implemented so far, though I don't agree with it.

Dcully · 20-10-2019 7:53pm

Was always going to be a tough game for Liverpool regardless of the gulf in class.
It was manu`s world cup final so to speak and they worked very hard to put in the shift they did,they really frustrated Liverpool but in the end Liverpool bossed the final quarter and got their just reward, 1-1 fair result on the day.
Ox was excellent when he came on, delighted for Lallana to get the equalizer.
Salah was a big loss today, his stats are through the roof this season, the clueless point only to his goals only but he has evolved to a more complete package the last 12 months or so.

rob316 · 20-10-2019 8:00pm

Sitting back against Liverpool never works, there seems to be this misconception we struggle to break down sides that sit deep. The full backs are too good to be left cross the ball freely as no matter how poor they have played soon or later they'll make the right one.
Only way to to beat Liverpool is what Ole did first half. Outwork the midfield and press the full backs, but if your not a side that presses it's difficult to keep that pace for the best of 90 mins.
