For any scousers who wonder why nobody likes you, you have a player fake an injury when we have the ball on the edge of the box. Ref stops play. Instead of doing the decent thing and give the ball back, you go and score. That’s why. Cheating hypocritical bastards #NFOLIV

When VAR was introduced, Origi was fouled on the halfway line at Old Trafford. 3 passes later the ball was in the net. It was deemed that it was "too far back in play" to disallow the goal Why are people now saying a drop ball 1:50 directly led to Liverpool scoring?

Are we going to scrutinise every wrong decision that leads to a goal 2 mins later?? Throws, corners, free kicks, drop balls! Baffling this over-reaction. This wasn’t a goal defining error by the ref!! Forest had plenty of time to stop the goal and didn’t! #NFOLIV

Wolves goal was disallowed due to limitations of the tech. Those same limitations led to a goal being incorrectly awarded against Liverpool at the Emirates. In none of the examples, did the officials all say "goal" and then not award the goal.

Liverpool's disallowed goal at Spurs was "unprecedented". The same way VAR forgetting to draw the lines to allow a Brentford goal at Arsenal was "unprecedented" and Wolves having a perfectly good winning goal at Liverpool disallowed because of no camera angle was "unprecedented".

@robbohuyton This conspiracy goes right to the top. The way that the two Forest players were told to dribble the ball out the box and be dispossessed by Endo, rather than boot it up the field is obviously much easier to coordinate than, say giving a penalty for the foul on Danns

So sending off Jota for a (now ruled incorrect) second yellow, when Liverpool where already down to 10 men (for a foul by Jones that wasn't as bad as Kovacic), and an actual goal ruled out didn't "have a negative impact on the game"?

@DaleJohnsonESPN Surely it is a case of Liverpool playing a high line because they know that VAR will get the decision right. The fact they have caught the opposition offside far more frequently than any other team suggests they're actually defending very well.

Nobody forced Everton to spend £27m on Iwobi £25m on Kean £24m on Klaassen £20m on Tosun Spending £45m on a player who turned out to be a nonce is the only misfortune around Everton's transfer deals.
