That's an appalling decision, absolutely awful.

doc_17

Scandalous decision but to be expected when we play Utd.

Utopia Parkway

No Yellow? Eh what?

Liverpool should be winning.

Yes.

But we're not.

Because we can't finish (as usual), and DDG is a freak.

Skylinehead

That's incredibly poor refereeing.

Harry Palmr

Well he'll get one the next time he sneezes.

BorneTobyWilde

nO TIME for extra touches in that situation, Coutinho was flowing on to that ball, and Salah broke that flow, took two touches and missed. Coutinho was hitting it into the empty space in goal.

This reminds me of last year's game. Utd trying to stifle Liverpool's attack.

Difference is that Utd have Lukaku up front so a smash and grab is more likely.

sligeach

Of course Atkinson wouldn't book Lukaku, he's United's biggest fan.

JaMarcusHustle

The inconsistent spacing between the letters on the back of Lukaku's jersey has spoiled this game for me.

Lukaku haunted there to avoid the card

chupacabra

correct decision

Don't let the sky hype get to you yes he saved it with his foot but it was more or less right at him you would expect any decent keeper to save it, it was the follow up that should have been scored

To be fair to Utd, they're trying to play further up the pitch than last season. Its just Lukaku is having a nightmare.

I usually enjoy a Liverpool game, but christ this is boring
Hopefully they score as if United score i'm turning it off

There's not a man alive who can take the joy out of football like Mourinho, it's awful to watch.

Salah not getting his attempt on target was desperate IMO

CB he is, but a free-ish shot, ten yards out, in front of goal. It should have been a goal.

machiavellianme

Only 11 more attempts for Salah to score. It's coming....

Rayne Wooney

If Salah could finish he never would have left Chelsea to be fair, he’s lucky Liverpool can occasionally create a ridiculous amount of chances for him to put it away

They're not the easiest side to watch. But they're getting results. Why would they care what the rest of us think about them?

Super Mig saves us again. Quality shot stopper. :cool:

tinpib

Coutinho is no Harry Arter, unfrt, cudda let it run.

SlickRic

Brilliant Mig.

murpho999

Mignolet saves from Lukaku one and one but DDG is world class (which he is) for sticking a leg out.

OwaynOTT

World class from mig Gary?

Mig with the first good save of the game at either end

Lovren trying to cheat

Liamalone

Lovren get some grass in his eye or what?

The slow motion replay shows his foot extending about two foot left in the time it takes for the ball to travel 3 yards. Incredible reactions

Agent Coulson

Nasty

Osmosis Jones

Should be banned once that's reviewed after the game.

blueser

Lukaku walking on very thin ice today.

Mantis Toboggan

Nothing incident.

Utd fans used to say the same thing about Suarez.

If Lukaku had kicked a ball at him instead you might have seen it.

martyos121

Lukaku has clattered Gomez and now kicked Lovren caught Lovren with his foot twice on the ground (he knew well what he was doing).

Are United players above the rules or is it just Lukaku?

citytillidie

Nice chants as always from the Anfield road end, kick from Lukaku ban coming up

Maybe he should of got up and said thanks for that boot in the face

He will miss games for that, should have been off .

He back healed his head on purpose .

Harry Palmr

Lukaku is a violent piece of work.

Yes he should for his heroics. No place for that in the game, Lovern should be ashamed of himself.

SlickRic

Hendo puts in at least 3 of those shít loopy crosses in a game. Infuriating every time.

super_furry

Referee letting Lukaku away with murder, hopefully he gets done by the video review panel.

Stream died after the save from Lukaku, what happened for this one?

Agent Coulson

Knew exactly what he was doing with that kick to the head of Lovren while he was on ground.

Very very nasty.

GreNoLi

Shameful Lovren, nil all as predicted.

BorneTobyWilde

He back healed Loverns head, sneaky but on purpose.

Sky will be embarrassing themselves if they spend the half time talk about lovren feigning injury

Thepoet85

Can't say for sure the kick was intended, can't see any retrospective action for that one.
