2020/21 Jordan Pickford

[bicycleheader]

Different angle on the replay looks a fair tackle tbh

man those movies are fantastic....so funny

Halsey piping them right down. It was a rash stupid challenge but it’s what Pickford does whenever the ball is in the six yard box, he throws himself towards it as big as possible as you can see by his arms being out. It wasn’t violent or malicious it was stupid.

Decent angle here too. Clearly gets the ball tbf.

 

[Zezti]

Just a tangle of legs tbh. Happens.

honestly, Pickford is a legend he's stopped any hope of Liverpool winning the league they wont even finish top 4, we should be praising him.

Everton players don't purposely go out to injure players. We leave that to thugs like Robertson.

Don't like to see players get serious injuries, especially good ones. But serious injuries are part and parcel of football, as are poor VAR decisions. Liverpool have had a good run on both scores (especially as regards key players) so we'll see how they handle a change of luck. Judging by the initial reaction of the club, their fans and their media, not very well would be my guess.

Got the ball imo

Are they really going to punish Pickford retrospectively? Ridiculous. What's done is done. This could create a hideous precedent wherein every Prem match is scrutinised frame by frame for possible transgressions.

Given the amount of cheating and dirty play that the RS get away with , I would think most of their squad would be banned for the majority of games if this happens

 

[Barnfred 55]

See the Liverpool FC Trinity Mirror are on the case. What a surprise.

Maybe somebody should send then youtube videos of the challenges on Allan and Mina As if.

 

[TyphooToffee]

id prefer to see that Carlo recognises the problems and will drop him if it keeps up, rather than being forced into it

Well if it happens and Olsen plays well he might struggle to get his place back

 

[AsiaAsia82]

Could Mane be reported for his off the ball kick at Mina that wasn’t seen by the ref?

 

[MercuryBlue88]

Surely if they seek retrospective punishment, we should be doing the same for the blatant off the ball kicks from Mane and Robertson both are clear attempts to hurt an opponent with the ball no where near, rather than a keeper defending his penalty area.

 

[Welshy]

How that rat Robertson hasn't been sent off is beyond me.

 

[BlueDraka]

VAR examined the incident. Found no foul play. So it cannot be reviewed. Oh hang on this is the RS we are talking about.

Fixed.

More clumsy than malicious, bad for VVD, but it is a contact sport and nobody is immune, Christ we've had enough of them long term injuries ourselves.
