It's almost like the league is invested in us not winning this game or Spurs winning it and they're getting all the bloody calls anytime one of them goes down at the slightest touch and yet mug one of our players with a rugby tackle right in front of the referee's eyes,......and nothing......crickets.

No wonder Klopp lost it and got himself booked.
It's so obvious it defies debate.

Nah makes no sense. It’s in their interest for us to be competitive with city as long as possible. We the most watched team in the league.

Not saying Man-city would have lost today.. but fucking hell the officials ignored a clear penalty in that game as well. It seems of late the officials are kinda helping city. Look at the wolves non existent penalty that game them the win.

BBC saying spurs will be pleased to get in at half time and regroup. I’m in Liverpool and can’t watch the first half, strangely.

I’d imagine Klopp will be working out how Conté has set his team up to play like a bunch of opportunist Italians and may have some ideas for reorganising things second half.

Come On Ye Mighty Reds!

They've been playing like the dirty blue shites, sliding in early and hitting late, a recipe for disaster.

They’ve been known for that for a few seasons now

Then why are they putting shite referees to officiate our match?

This lump of trash is a mess.
And obvious red card that he didn't give (a little bit more understandable, since they're not sending off Golden Boy at home), and an even more obvious penalty call right in front of him.

Could you say a little more? I’m not sure what that means

Should have been a pen but it was a very unusual incident.

Bloody brilliant first half of football. Very very hard to critize any of the midfield as neither would exspect play with another never mind all 3. We should've had a penalty which was a stonewall and Kane should've been sent off.

I’m putting down to sheer incompetence for now.
