I think the controversy about the ref in the Man City match has hurt Liverpool today. Looks to me like Webb didn't want to be seen to be favourable to Liverpool.

you mean, like in every game he refs pool

Am I the only one who thinks referees don't have 'agendas', and that they just make really **** decisions sometimes?

It seems every club these days has fans who believes a ref has something against them and will wheel out a catalogue of fixtures with the ref they feel hard done by.

He was the same at the end of the game. Would he just let his players get the glory. It's all about him.

Nothing new there tbh.

Gary Neville ludicrously said that was the best game of football he has seen all season.
Pretty poor fare overall for the neutrals.

Have to laugh at Liverpool fans claiming they were robbed by not getting a peno.

No, had you got (and scored) that penalty it would have been Chelsea getting robbed due to being the far superior team.

Don't troll this thread

Could be mistaken

Not sure either but I can only base my assessment of him on the games I see him referreeing , and in most games he is very poor.
Someone needs to tell him the game is not about him ..

Is Neville a closet Chelsea fan? Wasn't it him with the famous "scream" when Torres scored against Barcelona?

He's a shìt ref. Bottles a decision in every big game without fail and eventually loses the run of himself when put under pressure by players

Another thing about referees and something the commentator was saying, why was Eto'o not sent off or at least booked for his knee-high challenge? Commentators reasoning was that it was early in the game. Why the hell should that matter? Doesn't matter when he did it, he should have gotten red.

I'm so peed with the result, and the decisions that went against us. But also, there were too many bad performances today by Liverpool players. Johnson was muck, Mignolet should have done better although he did pull off a great save before Hazard scored. Sterling's final ball today was terrible.

But at the end of the day, we had to play 2 teams from the top 5 of the league, away from home and with a thin squad. We didn't get any points and were very unlucky in both matches. We scored 2 and conceded only 4. It was nice to be top at xmas but we can still make top 4. Onwards and upwards.

There really needs to come a time when officials explain their decisions and I don't mean via the mouthpieces that are Halsey and Riley. Whatever for us fans it must be completely galling as a player and a manager to have to witness that.

That's exactly it.

Lets remember here that Howard Webb started refereeing in 1989 as an 18 year old lad ref'ing Micky Mouse games with 1 man and a dog watching.

He didn't start doing it then based on some dream that someday, somehow he would wind up ref'ing a Liverpool game or 2 and could stitch them up!!!!

Refs get so much grief but i honestly believe they do their best. 99.9% of refs in England will never get to even ref a Conference game let alone a Premier League game.

Without them we'd be lost. They're as vital to the sport as the goal-posts, football and players. Fair play to them. I certainly wouldn't have been out on a sunday morning at 18 ref'ing an u-14 match in the freezing cold, i'd have been hugging the bed praying for the hangover to pass.

Good man Jose

The ref really cost us badly today. Eto should have gone after 3 minutes for studs right into the kneecap of henderson and the stone wall foul in the box he committed on suarez in 2nd half was even worse. The fact he scored the winning goal shows how much wrong decisions from refs are ruining games.

Chelsea were the better team today but no papering over the fact they got incredibly fortunate with key decisions.

Johner

Peno for Hazard and yellow for Suarez for diving.

Utopia Parkway

Mourinho blaming Suarez for Etoo fouling him.:D

GavRedKing

Its going to make the return game very interesting....jaysus hes not mincing his words :eek:

José spot on there with his assessment of the Suarez-Etoo incident.

A tackle that early and from a forward is always gonna get a bit of leeway.

Is it trolling when you are just plain wrong though. It works better when it's a grey area or an I wrong.

Mou says he hates players that go down easily, he must have fcuking despised half his Real team so..

Until the day Jose posts on Boards in a similar manner, I couldnt care TBH.

Nothing he can say is actionable by me.

That Real team aren't fond of him anyway, so the feeling would be mutual.
He is like a parody of himself these days.

I dont believe that Jose is a member of boards but even if he was, his trolling outside of boards would not earn him sanction.

There is definitely a bridge somewhere missing a resident.

Letter of the law says it's a penalty against Eto'o but no ref gives that when it's so far away from the ball. It would have been a big surprise if he did tbf.

Not exactly fair though is it? Makes it worse that he goes on to score the winner and then get away with a definite penalty. :mad:

He wouldnt last 2 mins in the soccer forum anyway if was on boards, perma ban nearly instantly I'd reckon.

Just seen an interesting stat on Suarez;

16 goals against the bottom seven teams and 3 goals against the top thirteen teams with two of them against Spurs.

Seen this stat just before the City match and found it interesting.

Thought about it a bit more during the City match and again today against Chelsea.

He seems to have played deeper in both these matches and created space for Sterling - who, coincidentally, was one of our most threatening players in both matches.

Either way, in both matches, Suarez was just as much a menace as he was in games that he scored.

No it's not fair but the whole notion of 'a forward's tackle' is ingrained in the game, so it won't be looked on as harshly.

Go on Rodgers - moan about the ref - I know u want to

That would be interesting, Shreves would be sacked for a start.

Suarez entitled to exaggerate that challenge from Eto'o

Def penalty

It never happens though so it's hard to compare it to anything. I can't remember a player been taken out of it like that before besides from a corner maybe.

He's learned and not going to on tv at least

Does not need too really as camera angles pretty damning for Webb and his decisions
