Looking forward to seeing which collection of pundits over the next few days take pity on Newcastle and call it a disgrace that additional time was added on. I'm going to assume the list will be quite lengthy.

And everyone of them will be talking through their arse.

There was only so much injury time because of them faking cramp and generally wasting time all game. Then they did the exact same in injury time itself, which led to more time being added.

Then, karma stepped in...

So, he was complaining about time added on at the same time as claiming we were wasting time ?  Some mental gymnastics going on there.

God they hire some 4th rate people over at TalkSport don't they, Simon Jordan is the only person they have who is kind of worth listening to on certain topics. But other than that it's just another huge serving of the shite narrative the other outlets like to spew.

Agbonlahor earlier said City and Arsenal were on 15 points and he could not see City ever drawing never mind losing. This is City who conceded 3 at Newcastle and should have been 3 down against Palace.

There was a moment where Salah plays a beauty of an outside-of-the-boot pass to Bobby who has a shot on goal.

The "He doesn't know his best team" line was getting levelled at Stevie a lot this week. Must be annoying for managers to hear that. Your "best team" depends very much of a few minor things like strengths and weaknesses of the opposition, form, injuries', knocks, confidence, mentality. Changing your team only results in the he doesn't know his best team criticism if you lose.
Also a bit tiring to hear the "there's something not right at Liverpool" line, Christ Sutton being the latest to come out with it. There always has to be some kind of shady insinuation in the way it's said too.

That was last season weren’t it? We then went onto to become the first team to get closest to doing the quadruple. There’s very few commentators/pundits I can tolerate. Peter Drury is probably the only one I can listen too. He only does games on the American channels now though.

Did Danny Murphy say the ball was played backwards for Coutinho's offside so he shouldn't have been flagged? That's irrelevant isn't it? I mean he was ahead of the ball, so he would have been offside had he been in front of the defender. Whether the ball was played forward or backwards doesn't matter.

As long as Coutinho is behind the ball I think he is onside if played backwards.

Though in VAR era anything is possible you might be allowed to pick ball up and run down wing rugby style next week 😂😂

Yeah that's what I mean, if he's behind the ball, he's onside but the ball could be played backwards and he could be ahead of it and be offside. He wasn't in this case but it's possible.

Paraphrasing Martin Keown last night referring to our poor start to the season...Klopp's team always have it in them.  They lost 6 in a row a few years back and Dortmund had a similar run under him.

Now I think we all know why Liverpool had such a bad run a few years ago and I'm fairly certain that Dortmund had similar injury problems when they had a bad run.  But why let facts get in the way?  Also twice in 10 years with extenuating circumstances is hardly "always".  It's OK being able to ignore half-time and full-time "analysis" but christ when can we just get crowd noise rather than having to listen to fuckwits talking shit?

Also, according to him we were in the Community Shield Final.  I must have missed the earlier rounds of that competition.

Martin Keown last night was appalling. Not quite Steve McManaman levels but the amount of misinformed shite he spewed out was winding me up almost as much as our performance.
Rafa Benitez: "I'll always keep in my heart the good times I've had here, the strong and loyal support of the fans in the tough times and the love from Liverpool. I have no words to thank you enough for all these years and I am very proud to say that I was your manager. Thank you so much once more and always remember: You'll never walk alone."
