Really impactful few minutes by Jack Grealish.
Van Dijk absolutely dawdling there
Rodri should be off
Clear yellow card foul when already on a yellow
Should have been a black card for a cynical haul down
Greals vs TAA getting heated
Youâd rarely see a second yellow given for a cheap foul like that.
Liverpool were on a dangerous break. The foul was from behind, a pull back and entirely deliberate. Yellow card all day, the type of foul that âManchester Cityâ specialise in.
Miles from goal with a load of players between him and goal.
If Rodri wasnât on a yellow heâd have got one.
Refs will rarely give a yellow for that if a player is already in a yellow.
I think that was his first foul after the initial yellow so he go away with it.
His first yellow was for a replica foul only a few minutes beforehand. Theyâre trained to foul inside the opposition half if the high press hasnât worked & a break is on. That incident ticked all the boxes, as Liverpool had played through their press & were breaking into their half with numbers. I was surprised he was dumb enough to make the exact same foul & was equally surprised he got away with it.
There was a goal on on the break and the chance was lost because of that cynical foul. It doesnât matter how you foul somebody as long as itâs deliberate. What Rodri did was the classic foulerâs act of trying to dress up a cynical foul as âawkwardnessâ, he knew exactly what he was doing.
It was a cheap enough foul miles away from goal. His first foul after the initial yellow. Because of that I think he dodged the second yellow.
I have often heard refs say he didnât think such and such foul warranted a second yellow to have a player sent off.
Did it reach the threshold.
I am not arguing with you I just knew he would not get a second yellow meaning a red for it. Seen it too many times.
If the foul was 10 or 15 yards inside the city half with the break on then I think it would be given as a second yellow.
How are Liverpool handling Haaland?
Nevermind, see heâs not playing. Advantage Liverpool.
Smashing banter there from Pep on the line after the goal.
COMS rocking to Bring It On Down
BRING IT ON FUCKING DOWN
VvD not at the pace of it again
