WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 Hypothetical scenario but would've been interesting to see what would've happened if that was Coloccini. Type of ball that catches him out time and time again. He's dreadful facing anything over his head. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

madras Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 Am I the only one who thinks MYM hardly touched Suarez today? Does placing a hand on a shoulder warrant a foul? I hate modern football where Suarez is in the right for going down to win a penalty when he could easily have stayed on his feet. It probably is a foul by the letter of the law but it's a sad state of affairs how is a player in the right for hitting the deck as soon as he is touched ? surely it's only a foul if the challenge does enough to impede the attacker which it doesn't.

Dave Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 Was a clear backpass that, I thought. If he's not trying to play it back to the goalkeeper he's trying to pass it into his own net. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he's not trying to play it back to the goalkeeper he's trying to pass it into his own net. Definitely. Way he angles the tackle and he clearly looks to Mignolet as if to suggest "you got it?" Mignolet should've just put his left foot through it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well he was impeded. You see lots of little tugs like that in a game, where it's enough to throw a player off balance or slow them down. It might not be enough for them to hit the deck, but it can prevent a player from getting in a shot or going past a defender. It's a deliberate foul and I don't blame any player for going to ground and making sure they get the pen or the free kick. If you fight to keep on your feet, you're far less likely to get the decision. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it was enough to impede the player, you can tell by suarez's exaggerated movement, up and back before going down. FWIW I will always blame any player for going down when they can stay up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benwell Lad Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 What a horrible team they are. Suarez and Gerrard personify it. They're not really that good, if they were they'd have beaten us easily considering their numerical advantage and the possession they enjoyed second half. Typical Rodgers team, retain possession, pass square but don't get it forward quickly enough to the players who can hurt the opposition. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
