Apparently it was tactical genius from Dracula.... Seeing as it basically won them the game...
Same as Chelsea hacking down Maddison until he went off helped them no end! (ok, Romero and Udogie didn't help)

thing is, do we stoop to that level, and just get Gil to clean out Haaland in the first minute on Sunday? (yes, I'm joking... it'll be Davies to do that?!) Or do we keep on as we are... The nice guys getting the shit kicked out of them, until there's barely any left!

I'm not expecting SPECIAL treatment, I'm just asking for fairness...
which there hasn't been much of recently!

I hate to say it but Nice guys tend to win Fuck all, I love what Ange has done for us in his limited time but my only gripe would be he needs to as Jose once said make us "intelligent cunts"
Take City for Example - Haaland is just back from an Injury, if we give him a nice tackle and leave a little bit extra on him then does that throw him off his game?
 
Funny how people are now starting to get stressed at refs and VAR not going our way.
Are we all still happy for Ange to just man up and get on with it?

Whilst Klopp has a megawhinge and ends up getting the rub of the green for months after, we get kicked off the pitch, players injured, goals checked and ruled out, players elbowed in the face and nothing.

Whilst it's sort of nice not making a scene after a bad display, all it's doing is hurting us, isn't it?

If we tried it there would be red cards and bans etc

We can’t win!

Bissouma back from suspension, Romero will be back the following game, Bentancur may also be back by then.

We showed against Villa that we can put together a midfield in Maddison's absence that can still play the football Ange wants and create chances, which was a big concern following the Wolves performance.

Come West Ham we will have something resembling the spine of our team back, and I'd imagine they will have a point to prove.

Knowing our bloody luck, we’ll get the harshest punishment for daring to question them

Honestly, this season is the worst I've ever seen from officials.
I'd give Eric Dier a massive sign off bonus to come on as a sub at some point and just absolutely waterboy the ref.
Fuck respect. Useless bastards.

I admire Ange for not slagging off the officials in public, but what should be happening is for him or the technical director, or whatever he's called, to be providing evidence to Howard Webb privately (and there's plenty of it) that we are certainly not being treated fairly.

That midfield was the best thing of that game. Never thought they would give a performance like that.
Press saying we didn’t play a def midfielder and probably should have done, ignoring the fact that after 30mins we were playing such a player when Pierre came on for Bentancur. Don’t think we were any better.

I think every manager should have a megawhinge...VAR is ruining football. I'd rather have a dodgy decision by a ref than some people in a dugout drawing inaccurate lines and so on and ruining the celebrations after a goal. When it comes down to it, the ref consults the monitor so VAR is still interfering. I enjoy football less now than I did before this game changing monstrosity appeared...
