LOL. Red all day.
This and the Mane red bias may make me rethink my most bias poster vote.
On 2nd thoughts Jodly easily.

I just saw the Rooney half line goal... can someone please tell me what the hell was Ogbonna thinking? (The defender that tried to reach the shot with his hand).

Hate to point it out to you but FIFA changed the red card rule in 2016 to:
http://www.bbc.com/sport/football/36047575
Accidental fouls on the last man are no longer considered an automatic red card. It is only a red card if the referee deems that the player has made no attempt to play the ball - not the case with Mignolet.
"Don't let him score".
Sure, it's a straight red, and well inside the box for the pen, but Rooney had already missed a penalty earlier. Thinking he'd gamble he'd miss again, and the rebound might not fall for him this time.
Or, he wasn't thinking.
50/50 either way.

Still red if deemed reckless, so even if you try to play the ball but are reckless, it's a red. See: Malik in the A-League.
Hart used to be a rich man's Mignolet, now he's the s**t version of Mig

Considering a red card means he misses the next game, I'd say both would be the right answer. 2-0 down, miss the game against...
Guess he was trying to book a vacation to get away from that slaughter.

On SBS right now
Man City will pump em.
Chelsea will beat them by a goal or two
Arsenal at home could sneak a draw
Fancy Stoke to beat them.
Arsenal will beat them at the Emirates.
Looking pretty dire for West Ham.

I must be missing something because this has completely gone over my head.

I can't stand Bozza, but he was right about that one. Should've been a yellow, but any time you slide in for a tackle with the studs up, you're running the risk of the ref thinking red is appropriate. Particularly given he was blocking a shot on goal.

I thought he got the ball first then followed through. The VAR replays we had at the ground were shithouse, couldn't quite make out what was going on.
But yeah, ball was clearly in dispute after a scramble in the box and the attacking Perth player wasn't in possession of it I felt. Game was over from that point on.

Not surprised with Sterling. Said at the time that 50mil will look like a snip, he's brilliant.
He's no Mo Salah though.

Watching our game again, we were really poor.
Very sloppy in possession and very slow buildup. Reminded me a bit of Pellegrinis last season.
Southampton worked really hard and put a lot of pressure on our ball carriers. Suspect clubs will have watched that and last week and thought "thats the way to go".
Two important wins though. Imagine the chasing pack would be a bit deflated after twice seeing us close to coming back to the pack, and twice pulling it out late.

Definite signs of improvement from a couple of years ago.

Hey don't tar me with that brush.
Still gutted he left but happy he's doing well, the abuse he cops from the gutter press is a joke.

Sterling leaving annoyed me when our front 3 was Coutinho-Lambert-Ibe
Now it's Mane-Firmino-Salah with Coutinho in midfield.
It's been a few years. We have different players and different managers, I'm over it.
Go back to when Sterling scored the winner this morning. I posted "Sterling!" with no salt added.

We were well compensated for when we sold Sterling, 50 mil was a lot more than we thought we were gonna get, dunno why he gets so much stick sometimes, other Liverpool players who were better have left in worse ways

Reckon we'll see a fair bit of rotation against West Ham and definitely Shaktar midweek.
Good opportunity to rest a few in the leadup to the derby.
But means West Ham won't be straightforward.
