bobzy Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 There were a couple of moments earlier in the half where balls over the top caused a bit of trouble (nothing major) but we seem to have nullified that pretty successfully since. Very good half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mings clears the ball. Gets a booking for high foot. But no bellend on commentary mings is a very lucky boy. What high boot rule? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicho Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 (edited) Why wasnt the pen a red card? and how the **** has fabinho not had a yellow? Edited May 20, 2023 by Nicho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nepal_villan Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 Great half. They have not troubled us. Liverpool's strategy is to just beat our highline and we've been ready for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheltenham_villa Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 I think the ref has been alright under pressure. I'd have liked a card for fabinho but other than that he's not bowed to the crowd and given them a pen or awarded a red. Got our pen spot on when it first looked like Kanoute had won the ball. We've looked good, bright in midfield and tested them going forwards. I've just never liked Watkins taking pens 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sharkyvilla Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 I'm glad I've got the Spanish commentary by the sound of things. Nice to hear Deeboooo when the ball goes to Martinez. Overall a very good first half, the injury time must have been because the ref got a jolt from up above for such a great penalty decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He gave Mings a yellow, as he should. He didn't give a pen to liverpool on two occations. All big decisions have gone right. Yss can't fault the ref in that half 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annoyman Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 (edited) Enjoying watching the football we're playing despite the increasingly maddeningly hysterical atmosphere around the last ten minutes, Kamara looks fit and McGinn's strength and decisive distribution in the middle have been great to see Edited May 20, 2023 by Annoyman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshVilla Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 We should be 3 - 0 up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dale Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 Fabinho at least 2 yellows. Henderson with the clearest professional foul I've seen. Co commentator sent me potty with his claim for a red for Mings. Gakpo initiated contact, at no point is Ty's foot going in his direction. Ollie, oh dear. He ain't no Anwar.

sheepyvillian Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 (edited) So much for the "Sky six" conspiracy. I'll say this, even after just half a season, this is our best manager since the great Ron Saunders.

AntrimBlack Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 Shame Watkins missed that penalty. 2 up would have been brilliant and not undeserved. Could be an expensive miss, but hope not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villatillidie95 Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 Stan petrov is being interviewed by michelle lee at HT. he is saying mings is lucky to not be sent off, bet he hasnt seen it multiple times like us! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Segundo Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 So the ref managed to find an extra 3 minutes and 8 seconds in the already added time of 5 minutes. Mind boggling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
