GWT: EPL - Matchweek 20

[al secord]

You just knew Jota was going down like that. What a greasy team.

 

[hatterson]

I don't think there's enough contact to even be called a foul there. It's absurd that VAR doesn't send him to the monitor for that.

Yea but the PL VAR standard has generally been if it’s called a pen live and there’s any contact, it’s going to be upheld 99.9% of the time.

Honestly it’s not great, but if they are going to win today at least it was just an insurance goal; (still ends 3-2); and at least it’s a game LFC thoroughly deserved to win.

I don’t think Newcastle can feel they were robbed here. At all. By any metric.

Nope. We'll never know what could have been. By any consistent logic, Liverpool won the game but put a massive asterix on their season. It doesn't count anymore.

 

[Live in the Now]

It was a big dive but don't pick and choose when you get mad about it.

My complaint in the first place after the Spurs match is that there's obviously something wrong with VAR so I have nothing further to add.

I mean if it makes you feel better you can do whatever the heck you want.

I’m not apologizing when the xG difference is probably going to be like a half dozen

 

[robertmac43]

The right team won.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

More dropped points for Newcastle is good for us

I just find it so funny, and kind of sad that people either cannot, or choose to not, see the difference

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Just going with what you say.

 

[luiginb]

It's a pen because there was contact, but Jota could have been booked as well for that pool dive.

I cannot remember the last time I saw an XG line so out of hand.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

I cannot remember the last time I saw an XG line so out of hand.

I'm not sure I've ever seen an xG north of 5 tbh

 

[maclean]

I mean some angles it looked like there wasn't even any.

But whatever, Liverpool shone and deserve that win, and the title, unless they bottle it of course

 

[JeffreyLFC]

The right team won.

Newcastle robbed!

 

[Jussi]

I'm not sure I've ever seen an xG north of 5 tbh

Didn't United get close to 5 vs Chelsea?

 

[Savant]

Just going with what you say.

When and what did I say? Please be specific. I’ll tell you if it’s equivalent

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Didn't United get close to 5 vs Chelsea?

Just south of it, I think? 4.6 or something like that

 

[Savant]

Do not think you can bottle a title when the entire fan base would be happy finishing third or fourth. Especially before the season started.

Just so funny people can’t see the differences between these things

Newcastle robbed!

Not going further into this with you but everyone knows I'm talking about when you flooded this board with your tears and shat your pants for an entire week after Spurs-Liverpool.

I will put myself on record saying we'll win the title and it will be fun to watch everyone cry about it.

It's only a bottle job once you lead by 6 or 7 points though. As soon as you do, it doesn't matter what was expected from the team.

 

[hatterson]

By this logic then Arsenal couldn’t have bottled it last season.

 

[Live in the Now]

Match was ridiculous. It was like they were giving Liverpool chances on a conveyor belt.

 

[Savant]

Yes. That’s a completely different situation.

If you can’t tell why that’s a completely different situation, that says more about you than it does me
