The world's worst derby: Liverpool v Everton

They did have a good game in the cup semi final at Maine road and the hillsborough final was good but other than that yep pretty crap.

You have obviously never watched any of the following:

Stoke v Port Vale

Bham v WBA

Boro v Sunderland

Burnley v Blackburn

Barnsley v Rotherham

hope that helps

*derby between two relatively big local rivals.

And no, I've never watched a game involving ant of the above derbies.

was top draw in the mid to late 80's...even the fans were something to behold especially post Hillsborough (never forget)....

this one was pretty good....

sofaking,was it a mistake you didnt have salahs goal as a pen?

BetfairSports offering evens Salah a shot on target for a tenner.

Hi,
I have picked up that Betfair offer.

I think Liverpool are worth a lay today.

think Even money on SB for Mo Salah for 1 hot or more on target is great value

Mo might not be fully focused today

There really needs to be a button to turn off Ali McCoist.

ABSOLUTELY!

strange prices on AOH, imo. Should be much higher.

Not anymore

red card everton

Didn't think either any challenge in that half warranted a card. Obviously the Ref has money on Liverpool.

This Ref is a cheat

The Ref, and other Pool backers, sweating a bit now. They'll probably get the win eventually, but making heavy work of it.

Liverpool no chance of winning anything this season

Penalty Liverpool

at least Dyche will have plenty to moan about.

1-0

whys that gib?

yes it should of been red but even with 10 men Pool shouldbeat Everton

2-0 ft take that in a derby game always tough games

Why are Referees allowed to make decisions and never have to explain them?

Why was Konate not booked for deliberately stopping a counter attack?

If the handball really was a penalty why was Michael Keane not booked?

90 +7 ffs

Had no bets on this game at all, 11kv. Sounds like it was yet another drab, insipid Merseyside derby.

Both yellows for Young were right. Both cynical attempts to stop an attacker. Penalty was also an obvious one. Have to wonder why it needed VAR to make the ref see it. But Everton have a shout that Tsmikas should have been booked and Konate could have been given a second yellow on another day.

Though I don't think 10 v 10 would have seen Everton change their shape or mentality one jot.

usual garbage from the toffee noses

Neutral view:The Ref applied common sense to the Konate foul but not to Young,that's the problem with common sense these days as it's not very common.

The handball law is crap.

If an accidental handball (ball to hand) is a penalty then why isn't deliberate holding at corners?

If Young deserved 2 yellows then so did Konate.

I suppose based on the 2 yellows that Jota got against spurs the Konate was a defo second yellow

but its like russian roulette with the refs there is no consistency

Konate was probably saved by being so far from his own goal. Not sure why there's any discussion on handball. The lad had his arm out at ninety degrees in the box. As clear a handball as you can ever see. Every other defender knows you have to keep your arms in tight but he decided that was a bit dull.

yes the hand ball was a cast iron pen

i suppose the OP should have been Ive never seen any good 12.30 kick offs after the international break

The visit of Everton on October 21 is Klopp’s 13th Saturday lunchtime kick-off in the Premier League immediately after an international break, which is more than double the amount of the next club.

away to man city for the next one

it's good that Liverpool are back in business, it means City will have a challenger, just watched Arsenal pass sideways and around Chelsea's defence for 45 minutes, you watch Liverpool and they're far more direct, only have to look at Klopp's record against Pep compared to Arteta's

Every other defender knows you have to keep your arms in tight

He was moving at speed.

If you'd ever played a physical sport you'd know that arms pay a irreplaceable part in balance.

If you have your arm out and the ball strikes it then it's probably a pen. Been that way for years. No one to blame but himself.

Keane's arm was in a natural position for someone moving at speed trying to stop.

Had he been rooted to the spot I would agree with you.

nope

Nobby Keane never moves at speed just ask blues supporters

handball has to be deliberate or used to be and deliberate handball is a yellow card but none of these pens for handball are yellow cards

Harsh and wouldn't have been given back in the day, but in today's game it is, hence why most players hold their hands behind their backs. SNC having a moment.

Has Dyche asked for a replay
YET?
