Liverpool 1 - 1 Newcastle United - 04/11/12 - post-match reaction from page 53


Recommended Posts

Very good point which most of us would have taken prior to kick off. I thought the goal we conceded was horrible, the way we surrendered possession in the middle was amateurish Liverpoolish.

I'd actually swap the point gained for no red card or injuries because I think the impact on the next three games could be more than on points worth.

Colo didn't make contact with Suarez and was clearly pulling out of the tackle . But by dangling his foot in the air he has given the officials a decision to make.

Does the lino have the wherewithal to quantify if there was intent, as it seems on his say-so that the red was brandished ?

There was a small glimpse that we CAN play a bit of football and it came at the time we scored. Those last 10 minutes of the half were the best I've seen us move the ball this season. One of those moments where you just want the half to go on. If we had more time we would have scored again and buried the red rabble.

 

Makes you tear your hair out when you know we can play that way, and we spend the other 80 odd minutes half asleep, then defending for our lives.

 

Liverpool are a one man team, and we allowed him all the room and all the space within which to work. Having said that, I can't fault our defending as much as I do our attacking. We were just not dangerous enough, and with players like Cisse, Ba, Ben Arfa and Cabaye that is just unacceptable.

 

So happy to get a point finally at the klan rally (copyright Bontempi), but I can't help knowing we should have taken all 3. Quite comfortably as well.

I've not read through the full thread but did anyone else notice Sterling kicking at at Simpson in the second half?

 

It was one of those nothing tackles, he went down to ground very easily to gain the freekick but then kicked out at Simpson afterwards.

 

I bet absolutely nothing comes of it.

 

If it had been Tiote....

 

I didn't see Sky's coverage, but in the HT analysis I saw, there were ridiculous comments about Colo giving away a definite penalty for some minor contact AFTER HE HAD CLEARED THE BALL. Is that bias or just braindead punditry?

 

Joe Allen gave the ball away in Danny-Simpson-on-a-bad-day style at least three times. After ten games, he has no assists and no goals. Even the pricey Mackem managed some last year.

 

TBF to Sky, both Coleman & Adam said it wasnt a penalty. They said if the ball had gone over Colo it would have been a penalty.

It's ridiculous that they even discussed it tbh, especially considering they ignored Sterling's lashings out (I think anyway). It was a legitimate tackle in the penalty area, so unless they were to talk about it for what a was, a potentially goal saving challenge, then it wasn't worth mentioning. That's what annoyed me anyway and I knew for a fact MOTD was going to do the same.

There must be an argument for Liverpool being the biggest example of a one-man team in the league at the moment, it is a shame that he is racist mind but a super player, i dont even mind the diving.

 

and re: one man team, before anyone says it,

This photo is such bollocks, all the papers are using it as if Colo hits Suarez's right leg.

Just seen SSN footy round up with Curbs, no mention of us at all..just about Suzarez and what a goal.

 

Oh and that nobber, i forget his name says "lets stop talking about all the negative stuff about Suarez"...erm ok lets just ignore that he is blatantly cheating in EVERY match.

Still can't get over suarez's reaction to the colo incident. There is such minimal contact but he throws himself on the floor like he's just broken his leg.

 

Not only that, but also have a look at his reaction to the excellent tackle on him by Taylor straight after the red card. Taylor slid in and kicked the ball out for a throw, and Suarez went sliding over the touchline with his arms wide open having not even been touched. w*****.

Just looking at the highlights, near the end when Suarez took a free kick and it bounced over Krul for a goal kick, Suarez claimed for a hand ball when the ball hit Cisses leg. He is an utter cunt, cant stand the bloke.

It really pisses me off how there's nothing being made out of Sterling kicking out at Simpson twice. He should be looking at a three game suspension, it's as nasty as it gets. The fact that he's shit at kicking shouldn't matter here, there's far more intent there than Colo's sending off.

Bergkamp-esque? :lol:

Give over man. It was a long ball he brought out the sky very well. No different to what Ba's done several times over the past two seasons.

 

Exactly  :lol: i don't even think it was that great of a goal and further more we should have dealt with it.

 

Cabayes was miles better, the build up, Ben Arfa's run and cross and Cabaye's excellent finish it shits all over it IMO.

I didnt see the game live, so sadly I am like the most of the rest of the country (until i read about it on here) - blissfully unaware that it happened.

I was stupid to think I would see it on MOTD last night.

The Sterling kick was conveniently removed from the highlights. (not just on Simpson either) Usual "unbiased" editing we've come to expect.

But in a years time some people on here will be sneering at anyone mentioning media bias or Liverpool getting pref treatment from them.

Short memories.

Talk Sport with Keyes and Grey actually DID NOT MENTION Newcastle at all ! Cabaye and Collocini ONLY one because he scored, and the other because he got sent off.

If ever anyone needed actual PROOF of pro-Liverpool bias in the media, this was the one.

Remember just sitting with my rather poor stream wondering what on earth the commentators were wanking their cocks off for. Liked our goal a lot more, but Suarez did admittedly do really well, watching it later.

On SSN, "don't care how many good goals we see this season, that will be goal of the season."

 

Wasn't even goal of the match. Never known such hyperbole for a goal before.
