It doesn't matter if its an accident, if you break someone's leg or ankle and don't get sent off, the other team are going to try and do the same to you. Same thing happened with Shawcross/Ramsey. That ref Atkinson is an idiot but he saved Son from getting a revenge-style injury there.

It was absolutely clear form the everton players reactions that they didn’t blame him.  There was clearly no malice at all.

Son couldn’t have continued anyway.  He was broken..

I don't think he sent him off to protect him.

Regardless, Son didn't look like he was in a fit state to continue anyway.

That is some insanely twisted logic

Remember when Frank Lampard broke Alonso's ankle? Did any Liverpool players try to break Lampard's after that?

I doubt they will worry about the ban, I think he needs a week or two off now

[Father Ted]

If I was out there and saw that sickening injury it’d probably put me off putting in any challenges altogether.

Apart from Lucas Digne. Watch the replays; he's begging Atkinson to send him off.

That's just a hangover from his Barcelona days.

I remember someone from Napoli jumping into Matip after the final whistle at Anfield last season and breaking his collarbone, this stupid stuff happens in football.

Also, Funes Mori's tackle on Origi and he went off kissing the badge and waving to their fans. As I said, doesn't matter if it was an accident, sometimes fans/players want blood.

Yeah, all that might be relevant if a) if it were Son that did the damage, and b)if it were a nasty and cynical tackle, like a two footed lunge going in to do the player, and c)if it were between two groups of fans that hate each other or if it were a derby or something. None of that applies here. It was a freak incident. Atkinson's a reactionary cock that makes up the rules depending on what mood he's in.

Coming out of the ground afterwards he still looked distraught. Spurs are away in the CL on wednesday to Red Star, be interesting to see if Son travels for that.

Might feel better knowing that the surgery went well.

How many liverpool players tried to break an Everton player after that Origi incident? Or do you believe they only try to get revenge on the culprit?

[Yosser0_0]

You heard it here first!

The so called TAA handball is a stonewall penalty and the Silva hand ball which actually diverted the ball back into the box won't even be considered during the analysis. Also the Salah goal was offside too.

Oh, and they dominated possession with 55%.
 

[Iska]

What was that montage based on?

[Crosby Nick]

Talk about aiming for the penalty spot with a cross.

[Trotterwatch]

Nice dive that by Mane

[LanceLink!!!!!]

Backwards pass from Henderson there

[OsirisMVZ]

Shearer: 'What do you want from the perfect milf'

[mc_red22]

Shearer: 'What do you want from the perfect milf'

I heard that

[slaphead]

Did my ears deceive me or did Shearer nearly say "what do want from the perfect Milf" ?? instead of midfielder ?

[slaphead]

Shearer: 'What do you want from the perfect milf'

haha beat me to it go on Crouch pull him on it

[Ray K]

I forgot whole watching it earlier, the crowd in the Kenny after Henderson closed down City and they kicked it into touch celebrated more than for the third goal 

[DonkeyWan]

Pretty fair by MotD this week. No penalty because of Silva, but no break and goal because of TAA.

[Red Eyed]

Shearer raised some good questions there, what DO I want from the perfect milf?

[DonkeyWan]

God, James flopping again. Didn't even think it was a free.

[Crosby Nick]

Shearer and Crouch in the analysis room before the show.

If Silva's handball doesn't come into consideration then surely there should be outrage from the pundits that the ref and var missed that obvious handball, I won't hold my breath waiting for it. 

[mccred]

Did Shearer just make a clever point or was it just an accident?
Silvas handball wasn't taken into consideration cause no goal came from it but would have been if it also created a goal scoring opportunity?
So if Oliver or VAR decided arm in unnatural position,  Penalty, Silvas handball has now created a goal scoring opportunity, so no penalty?
Or he may have just been bumbling along without realizing what the goal scoring opportunity would of meant?
Really pleased it's caused Pep to have a breakdown & the saltyness in tasty.
As for Company, show some dignity when doing the pundit bit, couldn't shut the dick up. Just wanted Souey to remind him of his tackle on Salah last year.
Fucking great win, shame its 2 weeks of international shite now.

Its absolute nonsense isn't it? What I actually think happened in reality is that Oliver probably didn't see the first handball from Silva, but he did see the Trent handball. Being a pragmatic referee he's decided it isn't a deliberate handball because firstly its not like his hands are above his head or anything, they are pretty much by his side and secondly the ball has been driven at him, you know at the sort of pace that you could probably punch a football. When its gone to VAR, I think they did consider the Trent handball under the 'new rules' whatever they are this week, but then saw the Silva handball and they thought shit that should be a Liverpool free kick but we can't call it back because they've gone on to score. So they now justify the no-penalty decision with the natural hand position, which I actually think is a reasonable call but they now come out with this nonsense about the Silva handball because it would have meant calling the play back for a Liverpool free kick when they'd actually scored which would be fucking stupid.

They've actually got it right but the way that they seem to be making rules up Wallace and Gromit track-laying style is making them look foolish, its as if they are trying to come up with a process to fit in with a series a still photos taken during the game rather than taking account of the dynamics of the game. They should really be applying the 'advantage' rule in these circumstances rather than making random shit up about the Silva handball not being considered.

Those saying his hand is in an unnatural position need to look at Aguero. He’s doing a similar stop-adjustment to Trent and his right arm is in the exact same position. In the other Trent incident, if his arm is removed, the shot hits his body - it’s also a foot away.

That’s an excellent point.

Shearer’s a good pundit now; he’s certainly closer to the truth than any of the fools droning on on Sky after the game.  What a downer those guys were.  Also, the giddy Shearer afterwards who laughed through the compilation of our best bits is quietly one of my favourite people on football TV.

I took genuine pleasure in the after game love-in directed towards us by the team of three Sunday night. They were marvelling at the beauty of the passing and the very high standard of play that is rarely allowed as it comes across as bias if all are in agreement. They were of course also seeing it for what it was, a magnificent display. Credit to Chapman for managing that as a redmanc.

[Skeeve]

I think he is one that has benefited from the bar being steadily lowered by some of the fuckwits they get on these shows as pundits, he can be shit at times and okay at others, but that's a big step up from most of the pundits they get on there these days.
