Today’s Games 2023-2024

[Aimless Balls]

Draw was fair.

 

[wolfslair]

So now kung fu kicks are legal if you play for a sky 6 team……

 

[SquaddieWolf]

Liverpool vs Man City and the winners are Arsenal

 

[WolvesAndCows]

Draw was fair.

Thought Liverpool deserved to win

 

[Oh When the Wolves]

City should have battered them first half.

Playing out from back only cost the 2 goals today

 

[tamwolf]

Probably the worst I've seen Man City play in years.

The VAR cowards were never going to put their arses on the line in a potential title decider. Far too much trouble coming their way if they get it wrong so they stick with the on-field decision.

 

[Kashmire Hawker]

Doku very lucky not to see Red. Don’t care he got the ball first; he pummelled into Mac Allister’s rib cage. Absorbing game and a mighty title fight.

 

[SingYourHeartsOut]

It's never a pen once you can see he touches the ball and hello again, CLEAR AND OBVIOUS, it's taken a while, but actually being used correctly at last.

Behave. He kicked the ball. There was very little force.

 

[manchesterwolf17]

Only Liverpool can do that to Man City. What a manager he is Klopp.

100% penalty at the end as well. VAR bottled it.

P.S. - I want Mike Dean's job. Talk about money for old rope. **** me.

It's hilarious, what is the actual point of someone who just repeats 'yes the ref got that one right' every 5 minutes.

Never a pen though, never mind an obvious error.

 

[Watfordfc]

Good game .

Liverpool will probably feel they should have won overall

 

[JonahWolf]

West Ham 0-2 Burnley
Brighton 1-0 Forest

And now Villa 0-3 Spurs.

Was looking at the fixtures this weekend, and thought ‘what a god awful set of bankers for our other lower Europe chasers’.
Cheers West Ham. Shame there’s not a hope in a hell of Forest getting anything out of Brighton.

 

[Monketron]

VAR bottled that.

 

[Frank Lincoln]

The late penalty appeal apart, Liverpool should have had the game wrapped up by then. Manchester City were average in the second half and I think Liverpool will rue those missed chances.

 

[Hot Fuss]

VAR bottled that.

Odd, cus I’m always told on here that LiVARpool get all the decisions??

 

[Norman Bell]

Incredible that such an incompetent person at what was his job now gets paid to talk about refereeing.

It is as credible as having Rambo lecture on being a pacifist , Wile E Coyote tell me how to catch the road runner or Henry the 8th discuss the secret to long marriages !!!!

 

[lobodelsur]

I totally understand not disliking City fans as much as the rest of the Sky 6 or whatever, but I cannot help but feel they have severely cheapened the competition. It's all just so cynical.

The competition was 'severely cheapened' the day the PL, with all its emphasis on money, was formed.

 

[bully9]

Wash your mouth out

 

[lobodelsur]

Kyle walker has been awful on the ball today

On the other hand, his covering defensive work kept them in the game...

 

[WorcesterWanderer]

Already been said on here, but Liverpool should have won and that was a red. Really not a fan of Man City.

 

[Woolywolf]

Anyone watching Silva for Rangers?

 

[Werewolf of Wombourne]

Fabio just scored

 

[Axle]

Fabio just scored

Recall option button pressed

 

[SingYourHeartsOut]

Recall option button pressed

I wonder if we would, if we could?

 

[Frank Lincoln]

Florentine 1 - 0 up against Roma. It should be more as they have missed some excellent opportunities.

 

[WolvesAndCows]

Wash your mouth out

They made City look ordinary

 

[Thank you Sir Jack]

Florentine 1 - 0 up against Roma. It should be more as they have missed some excellent opportunities.

Well that just takes the biscuit.

 

[Frank Lincoln]

Roma Level, but I don’t know how. They have been second best by a distance, though to be fair they have improved in the second half.

 

[Frank Lincoln]

2 - 2 at the full time whistle, Roma equalising with the last kick of the match. Fiorentina must be very annoyed, they should have won comfortably.

 

[Monketron]

If you put your foot up that high and make contact with another player than it is a foul, even if you win the ball. The onus is on the person choosing to put their foot high to make sure it doesn't endanger another player. Just like how some bicycle kicks are fine and others are called up for dangerous play.

 

[Hawkguy]

There's this Jonathan David fellow that scored 4 goals in 2 games in 3 days this week.

Maybe someone's heard of him?

Yes, I mean having cogitated, it could be a pen, although I think McAllister has made the most of it (understandably) and maybe Oliver would have given it elsewhere on the pitch, where it wouldn't have been basically deciding the game. For a pen he needs to be sure and I think although it could be a pen, it isn't an obvious pen, so Atwell (much as it pains me to say it) is correct not to intervene.

My broader point is that VAR has stopped being used to overturn 40-60 judgement calls, and the game is all the better for it.

Probably out of our range these days. Ideal Neto replacement

 

[Wonder Boyo]

The thing I like about the Villa forum is that they are a very level-headed sensible bunch. Always consider the season as a whole in order to keep all results in perspective. We could learn a thing or two from them on the Mix

 

[Hawkguy]

To be fair... maybe not. He only has 1 year left on his contract after this season. Usually lose a bunch of value in those situations.

Doubtful he'd come here anyway now. He would have when he was in Belgium though!
