Liverpool FC Forum / Re: The corruption fallacy - they’re all out to get us!
« Last post by GivePeasAChant on Today at 06:35:51 pm »Thanks for that.
That is quite frankly disgusting. The club now has to act.
I agree but I think we'd need media on our side which isn't the case. The PGMOL are protected by media in this country.

I genuinely don’t think that there are many people who would deny that they cover their own arses. The denial is that they fuck us over intentionally.
It was Taylor who last week was the ref for the Forest game wasn’t it?
They’re just arse covering pricks. I suspect he’s blown his whistle out of instinct and then realised he’s made an error and told him to go down.

« Last post by Crosby Nick on Today at 06:35:21 pm »It goes far beyond that though. Referees are mic'd up. The two assistants. The 4th official and Stockley Park will have heard that. If the PGMOL do not act then they are complicit in corruption.
We’ve seen from the Diaz clip and also that one they released of Chelsea v Spurs that everyone’s taking over each other all the time. I doubt everyone in the VAR room were watching that in silence. Someone must have been asking what was going on. Woukd be interesting to hear but we never will.

Liverpool FC Forum / Re: Trent Alexander-Arnold
« Last post by Buster Gonad on Today at 06:34:23 pm »Trent moving inside vacates the left back position and isolates Salah on the wing.
He still sprays some lovely passes, but all too often these are from central areas out to the wings. All very pleasing but ultimately ineffective.
We had the world's best attacking midfielder and greatest assist machine whose assists made up for his defensive shortcomings. Now we've turned him into a above average midfielder who can't defend or assist.
Note his pass today for MacAllister's header..... a straight ball from central midfield to his head that made it so difficult to do anything with. He's played many similar balls this season.
We have Salah too wide, Trent not wide enough, and constantly get exposed down the right.
Tend to agree with this. That ball to Mac was fantastic but difficult to do anything more than he did with it. One of the greatest crossers of a ball in the world but he's not in the position to cross the ball.
Salah doesn't have the pace or engine to play out wide alone. His interplay with Trent on the wing used to be devastating. That side of the pitch is now a liability

Liverpool FC Forum / Re: Luis Díaz (Luis Fernando Díaz Marulanda)
« Last post by mattD on Today at 06:34:15 pm »Hahaha.... Short Memory Theater at its best.
I loved Sadio. He was excellent. But he went through long stretches of criticism because he "refused to pass to Mo" and he was selfish in attack...
It looks like Diaz is trying to do it all himself because he's seen what form his teammates are in probably. To make a pass to Darwin or Mo over the last month Lucho could probably just save his energy and pass it to the GK instead for all the good that will come from it.
Of course he did, I don't doubt his dips in form but his performance ceiling wasn't in doubt, he gave everything we needed and asked for from a forward right from the word go against Arsenal so we knew what he could offer in terms of the whole package. Diaz has never reached those peaks or ever achieved those all round performances.

Media and Arts / Re: Wrestling Thread (AEW, NJPW, WWE, etc) (*)
« Last post by damomad on Today at 06:34:03 pm »I watched it for a few weeks after the rebrand but got bored. The low crowds at TV are really noticeable, especially compared to TNA's heyday. The Olympia in 08 is one of my fondest memories of a wrestling show, these days it's a world away.
The wrestling is ok but I really hate the WWE style promos. AEW have taken the purists away, and there aren't many wrestling fans willing to shell out for 2 companies PPV's in such a short space of time. I'd like them to be successful but they have no special identity, if you took the TNA logo out of the ring, you would think you're watching an episode of WWE. And when you don't have any marquee names there, no one is going to switch over.
