Tiresias Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 Such a shame the red ruined the game (it was definitely a red though) had good potential till then. Still City look very good going forward, think Liverpool rested for midweek rather than even try with 10 men though, they could have gotten at them a bit even to keep teh scoreline a bit more respectable Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

themanupstairs Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 Klopp talking some absolute bollocks blaming the drubbing on bad luck Sad that he's become one of them. Just lose with grace man, admit they were played off the park after the red, and just move on. I'm quite sure he would have been singing a different tune had that been Aguero on Mignolet, and no red card had been shown. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 Both have the right to go for the ball. Both could have hurt the other. I can completely understand why a red was given by the rules as they are, and if that happened against us I'd be baying for blood. My question would be what should Mané have done differently? He has to go in in that way if it's there for the taking and he's in any way a competitive athlete. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm quite sure he would have been singing a different tune had that been Aguero on Mignolet, and no red card had been shown. No one in their right mind is going to view that as a drubbing or insist that they were played off the park, like. A man down against Man City and they'll do that to anyone. Liverpool's own 4-0 win over Arsenal was both of those things, this wasn't. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has to go in in that way if it's there for the taking and he's in any way a competitive athlete. Not with your studs at face height, he could have challenged for it with his head if he was half a second quicker, possibly. But he was never going to get the ball either way and should have done neither. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiresias Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 Yeah no chance goal down and down to 10, had it still been 0-0 could have gone backs to the wall defending and tried to nick a goal late but that wasn't an option. Harsh perhaps, and I don't rate Liverpools defence much but really shrug that one down to the red card that was fair imo but bad luck considering lack of malice.

Tiresias Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 Those tackles absolutely need to be discouraged severely. Imagine watching your kid on the receiving end of that in sunday league.

He did what came to him instinctively trying to flick the ball over the keeper with his toe. Couldn't have done much else if he wanted to go for the ball IMO. He put himself at risk of committing serious foul play and was rightly sent off for it. It also means that he clearly saw the keeper coming. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just playing devil's advocate here, but if the alternative is him not going for the ball, that brings in other criticisms. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
