ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC" part 3



I don’t even think the quadruple is a thing tbh.

The big three trophies are the PL the Fa Cup and the CL. That was the real treble.

Of course I’d love Everton to win a league cup but no one can pretend it’s up with the other three, it’s not. I’d trade 5 league cups for one FA cup without a shadow of a doubt.
Correct, League Cup has only been taken seriously since Mourinho joined Chelsea in 2004. Before that you would regularly see finals such as Boro v Bolton, Spurs v Blackburn and Leicester v Tranmere. I remember Alex Ferguson used to treat the League Cup as a joke, going out to York over 2 legs for example.
 
That fabinho elbow should be getting a ban. Blatant intent. I looked back at Thatcher's on Mendes. He got an 8 game ban. It was only worse because of the momentum in his contact as he ran at him. Both had exactly the same intent.


Yep. You can tell by the expression on Fabinho’s face that he knew what he was doing. Do they still do retrospective bans?

Can't the powers that be still issue retrospective punishment if they see fit.
I recall Duncan getting a three match ban after flooring a Villa player in the build up to a Rooney goal. The incident picked up after being spotted on a TV recording.
