Don't Liverpool have a chant about the Ox with a line like "scores crackers every week" but it's actually about his missus being fit?

He's the best.

Stadium went mental when his first one went in, he just needs a decent chant now.

Que Salah Salah?

Why does the goalkeeper try to head it away? I think that would be the harshest backpass ever if he saved it with his hands.

Niasse charged with diving from the weekend (first PL player under new rules)...

Assuming he misses a game (or two), what's worse for Everton, Niasse being banned? Or having to play Rooney?

lol the first one they ban is someone who didn't actually deceive the officials since even "minimal contact" there is a foul

It's such a grey area isn't it? Guess with this incident though that the contact was in the upper body and it caused him to go down like he had lost of control of his legs probably didn't help his cause...

Wonder if we'll get VAR next year. Seems to be have settled in the European leagues a bit after some initial dodgy decisions...

(Skip to 50 seconds if you just want to see what happened)

"Ball Kid" ( :lol:

) knew what he was doing. I'd have more sympathy for him if he was doing his job and got pushed to the ground, but the fact is he was holding on to the ball and turned away from the player and then, to top it off, feigned an injury. I hope they video review his performance and fine him by taking his internet enabled devices off him. Also kick him in the face.

Just happened again in the Liverpool match.

This spurs v dortmund game is very frustrating. We've had some really good chances and played some great football but losing one nil. The dortmund keeper has pulled off some good reflex saves.

3-0 up at half time. More than happy with that.

Bobby is boss. Such a classy player!

Liverpool aren’t playing that well, Sevilla have been awful at the back.

Moreno has found his old form again. :dread:

Oh my god. :fp:

I mean can’t factor in Moreno’s implosion but Jesus.
