He thought he was offside and knew Diaz was 100% onside
-
No mention of the possible red card. This is why things have got so bad. TV over the years have just glossed over the bad decisions but more live games and post-match analysis are highlighting them
-
It's the fact that the video tech guy seems the calmest and most knowledgeable person there compared to the two professional referees

Hamilton's an arsenal fan so zero points for the joke and zero points for accuracy. Unlucky!

"It's not even remotely a sport". Sport - a competitive physical activity. F1 is clearly a competition, both between the teams for the constructors title and individually between the drivers for the drivers title. Physical activity - driver's have to be incredibly fit to handle the g-forces during acceleration, braking, and cornering, incredibly fit to continue driving to a high level in sweltering heat where they're losing kilos of bodyweight over a couple of hours of racing, the reflexes to catch a slide and minimise time lost. So when you say it's not even remotely a sport, you're just making a fool of yourself. It doesn't have to be something you're interested in, there's plenty of sports out there I have no time for (a lot of them Olympic events), but I'm not idiotic enough to claim they aren't actually sports. "How is driving a fast (the fastest) car in a field of 20 competitors in the entire world and emerging on top make you a top sportsman?" It's driving a car faster than the other hugely talented competitors (distilled down to a group of 20) and consistently emerging on top in the pinnacle of motorsport. That's what makes you a top sportsman

According to hmrc he's in the top 5000 tax payers in the UK and I'm sure the response to that will be that he should still be paying more. Mansell iirc, Button, and a lot of other F1 drivers were also tax exiles but it was never thrown in their face. Then again, they're white
-
Except it is, and saying it isn't just makes people look thick Apart from it actually is Sky Sports. If that's the criteria LFC play some games on BT which is closer to CNN than F1 - can I vote for Anderson Cooper?

Jesus Christ some of the posts because Jordan didn't win - and we call Everton fans bitter. Some crap about how motorsport is not a sport, or about residency, or how much tax is paid - nonsense, brexiteer nonsense, and tory brexiteer nonsense Jordan would've been a fully deserving winner of SPOTY for what he has done for the club and during the pandemic. Great player, great captain, and seemingly fantastic all round guy Hamilton this year basically became the most successful F1 driver in history and is widely recognised as one of if not the best ever. For a guy of mixed heritage who didnt grow up rich to get into F1 was an achievement but to go on and do what he has done, with or without the best car, is a massive achievement. Plus he's pushed heavily for increased diversity within his sport and further down the chain

Linesman do your f***ing job. Clear offside

Arsenal Vs Liverpool - Friday 22nd Dec 7:45pm
FC Showster replied to LondonLiverpoolFan 's topic in Liverpool FC
Watched the 3rd again and Mignolet is diving full length before Ozil has even taken his shot. The man has got to be replaced -
That is massively massively unfair. Henman was never the most talented but through his own hard work and determination made himself a top 4 player and almost reached the Wimbledon finals

Arsenal Vs Liverpool - Friday 22nd Dec 7:45pm
FC Showster replied to LondonLiverpoolFan 's topic in Liverpool FC
1st - Gomez and Robertson (ends up 3 yards behind CBs and way out of position to block any type of cross) 2nd Mignolet 3rd Gomez and Robertson (awful first touch to give away possession) Pretty clear the Gomez/Mignolet mistakes on the goals. Robertson and Gomez deserve a bit of slack though for their performances - Mignolet, it's time to go. Spend big in the summer on Oblak or the Milan keeper and sort it out. I think Karius should get a run of games to see how he goes I thought Lovren and Klavan were excellent though tonight. Can we find Mane's confidence though? Salah so good but Bobby MOM tonight for me -
Which one did he assist?

LFC vs Crystal Palace. Sunday April 23rd. Late game.
FC Showster replied to New York Red 's topic in Liverpool FC
not very likely =/= very unlikely -
Nonsense, it was at least 5 yards. No attempt made to get anywhere close to a position where he could make a decision
-
I think the wall position is fine, I think even his positioning is ok, but he is slow to react and in the moment doesn't get a good spring which means he's late getting to the ball and only gets a weak hand to it. That's what bothers me. That and givng away a dopey free-kick in a dangerous area to the best fk taker in the league
-
And here's Joe Hart (who I've seen ppl on here suddenly decide they'd prefer to have as our keeper) describing how to setup a wall for a central free-kick. Spoiler, he sets it up to cover one side of the goal like I said. Neither your video nor your response actually talks about the wall or clearly shows the setup by Neuer so it seems a bit irrelevent
-
If every keeper in the world didn't position their walls in a similar position you might have a point. Are you the Dutch coaching expert from twitter?
-
Klavan is clearly his worst signing, the fact he plays Lucas at CB ahead of a CB he bought kind of shows it Yeah, he made a mistake for the 4th goal. As did Clyne, and Lucas. And Lovren and Milner for their first. etc for the second and third Second half was a team who thought it was won and game over. I doubt Klopp will be focusing most on the keeper this week in training

LFC vs. Bournemouth (A) - Sun Dec, 4. 1.30pm
FC Showster replied to Sir Tokyo Sexwale's topic in Liverpool FC
2nd - think his slip puts him slightly out of position and he doesnt have time to correct Midfield ridiculously overcommitted (I think we had 7 players ahead of the ball when Origi gives it away) Lovren actually gets lucky that the ball is overhit slightly and doesnt put him straight in on goal 4th - yeah he should save it but it was the kind that keepers spill from time to time - even the best. Why were Clyne, Lucas, and someone else triple marking 1 player in the box while the guy was having a shot unchallenged? Re-watch the goal and watch Lucas - he doesn't move, just stands and watches. Terrible defending A week or so ago we didn't need van Dijk, we have cover, solid defence etc. Now, I think we can see why we should be in for him in January -
Well he made a couple of good saves against Sunderland did he not? Easy to gloss over solid performances were he did his job with minimum fuss and then say he's not good enough after the 10 in front decide to not turn up for the second half. The only mistake I thought he made today was unfortunately for their winner but even then he wasn't helped out by his team. What was Clyne doing right back in the area? We had so many back there who didn't react after the shot and no-one to actually block it or put a challenge in. A lot of the outfielders need to take a look at the shift they put in/didnt put in today

FC Showster replied to Sir Tokyo Sexwale's topic in Liverpool FC
Re-watched their goals and some of their other attacks 2nd half and tbh I'm surprised at the rush to blame Karius and excuse the players in front who were more culpable. -
Burton Albion (Away) - Tue, 22 Aug 1945hrs
FC Showster replied to usualsuspect 's topic in Liverpool FC
Missed a relatively simple header and held onto the ball far too long instead of playing Mane through. Thought he wasnt great myself -
Already getting tired of play slowing down as Milner has to check and get the ball onto his right foot
