Xela Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 If Liverpool beat city next week they are champions IMO Never ever thought I would be saying that at the beginning of the season What a manager Rodgers is Rodgers has done a great job but I can't see them beating Man City and Chelsea. I think they'll drop points against one of them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they'll drop points against one of them maybe but they are both at home and City have to go to Everton, and Palace away will be no give me.

Electric Avenue Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 I'd agree. Liverpool were poor today and without the officials would have dropped 2 points. I think the officials will favour both chelski and Ci£y in the respective games. The FA and Sky wouldn't have it any other way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The West Ham goal shouldn't of stood, just like the second penalty shouldn't of been awarded. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Steve Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 It's shocking. I agree with Big Sam, the referee has made himself the talking point of the match, and it's disgraceful. The standard of referees in the English league is nothing short of abysmal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samjp26 Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 Nine straight wins is unbelievable Rodgers has got them winning when they play well and winning when they don't. Very much like Fergie would with United. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 (edited) Nine straight wins is unbelievable Yes when people say they were poor today. Look at the amount of chances they had. Suarez hit the bar twice. Edited April 6, 2014 by PaulC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted April 6, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted April 6, 2014 I think we will always have this level of controversy from refs until technology is brought in to give refs a hand. The game is just simply too fast for them to get all decisions right. I don't necessarily think the standard of refereeing is bad, it's just too hard of a job without further assistance IMO.

The game is just simply too fast for them to get all decisions right. I don't necessarily think the standard of refereeing is bad, it's just too hard of a job without further assistance IMO. The funniest thing was the way West Ham must have 'accidentally' shown the Carroll foul for their goal on the big screen. All of the Liverpool fans were screaming and pointing to it but the ref was having none of it. The technology is there to be used quite easily, rugby is a prime example, had the ref turned around today and saw the screen he would have seen the foul. He chose not to, just as the FA/FIFA choose not to implement such systems, quite obviously on purpose. Look how long it took to get goal line technology implemented, which was clearly very important in our match the other day for example, anybody else would have said yep that is over the line but the ball wasn't completely over - which was only evident due to the system.

The_Rev Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 Nine straight wins is unbelievable And Everton are on six. There must be something in the water up there. Just checked what the record is, it's Arsenal with 14 consecutive wins but that was split over two seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarewsEyebrowDesigner Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 (edited) By that point, Chelsea might need to win to stay in the race. It'll be a classic Mourinho 1-0. Edited April 6, 2014 by CarewsEyebrowDesigner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
