Match Thread Liverpool v Everton, FA Cup 3rd Round, Friday 5th Jan 2018

[Maltese_Falcon]

Firmino is mixed with every race known to mankind , if he said anything to Holgate he was offending himself too FFS !

Problem is mate, if you don't call that a pen, then neither was Lewin's in the last Derby, both players felt an arm, both players went down, both soft pens.

At least the DCL one was at pace and the touch was in the back. This one, they were standing still, no contact on the legs but his knees buckle.

Well in shearer

 

[Midnitemike]

Duck me how does he blow for half time there. Play was stopped at least 2 mins for holgate incident

 

[bag a yoko]

Def ban for a dive there

 

[KaiserEFC]

DANNY MURPHY saying it’s NOT a penalty ffs.

 

[II McColl II]

Calling it now, not scoring a goal this half

Throw in Madley being on the pay roll we'll be lucky this ends 1-0

 

[technojoe]

Haha another soft pen in the derby!

 

[Deulofeumygod]

Oh to have Ross charge through the centre of midfield and shake things up. Still not exactly creating a lot.

Who?

 

[Tubey]

How's it different from Niasse' "dive"

It isn't, it's a pen.

So naturally a two match ban should apply.

 

[Huyton Layne]

Send Sammy Lee to the refs room at half time with a maglite in a footy sock.

 

[Fansince1988]

This is what I mean - he's played a lot of games and isn't always going to shine. Niasse, much as I like his attitude, isn't quality! Hence the need for reinforcements in that position.

DCL rarely shines he's poor, we haven't got anyone else tonight other than Niasse, but I'd much prefer him up there tonight.

 

[ford_uk]

Fair play to the BBC pundits

 

[matty1878]

We’re awful just awful.

 

[Osamabindiesel]

How's it different from Niasse' "dive"

It's not. He should be reviewed, but I have a feeling they will use "it was a cup game" as an excuse or something along the lines. I don't think they would mourn Lallana too much either, so it wouldn't affect them like it did when Oumar got his ban.

 

[KaiserEFC]

4 people there who say it’s not a penalty. Will it go to a panel?
