I'd love to see a tally of Rodgers tactical changes that lost points vs ones that gained them. 

I would love to see the goals conceded / Vestergaard mins play ratio. Actually I wouldn’t love it but I’m interested. 

[dayday]

Seen it again, how’s that given, ****in disgraceful decision

So how many is that from corners and set pieces now?  Does anybody know?

11 I think

[walkerleeds]

They genuinely must not practise set pieces at all in training. Madness.

[Royston.]

Inexplicably LAME start but I'll take the point.

 

Not for a second did I think we would hold the lead.

 

What a total nightmare.

Top, I'm begging you, pay the twat off

For the purposes of determining handball offences, the upper boundary of the arm is in line with the bottom of the armpit. Not every touch of a player’s hand/arm with the ball is an offence.

 

So it was a handball?

No. We just hoped it was 

[FoxOnWheels]

I’m honestly fvcking raging at that

[Vazman]

Who else Cried when Vasterguard's face turned up on the sidelines for Tielmans, I nearly bought my Sunday dinner up when the corner happened, as you just knew the equaliser came, just sums our season up.

 

Still we played better and got a point I suppose, feels like a loss though.

[Scotch]

Ok...

 

I thought the first half was shocking. Same old crap. No fight, crap going forward, arguing with each other and half our team didn't even bother to celebrate our equaliser.

 

To be fair to the lads, they fought back. Showed a bit of balls and more importantly, some half decent football. For 30 minutes there, Barnes looked like he did before he was injured. KDH ran the midfield, Ricardo played well. Maddison and Daka ran their socks of and Thomas really dug in. 

 

But ultimately, it's all for nothing if you can't defend a set play. I honestly don't think that the sub made a differance as their corner came like 3 seconds later but how can a man the size of Vestergaard not jump more than 3 inches of the ground? It wasn't his man but he had a clear header at it and should have got it. 

 

I'm disappointed, ofcourse I am but let's be honest, it was much better.

We can’t afford to

[nabb7]

Very typical of Rodgers’ tenure: I’d have taken it at the start, but to have bottled at the last I’m fuming!

[Sgt_Crapgame]

As I said in the week, how the F@ck is Kolo Toure still in a job…..🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡

[Foxdiamond]

So Brendan where is the game management again ?

[Blue ROI]

Bringing on vestergaard with a minute to go....

 

Rodgers is toast.

Lacklustre first half but a number of positives to take from the second. However, yet again, our failure to do the basics has cost us again. It’s beyond jarring at this point.

 

On the positive side, I thought that Ricardo, Tielemans, KDH and Maddison all had decent games.

Barnes and Thomas too. Much better second half. 

[lee7]

Throwing on Vestergaard at the end just gifts the initiative to West Ham to lump the ball long. Unfortunately for Rodgers minutes after making that sub we concede.

[Aus Fox]

Craig Dawson had pretty much just admitted it shouldn’t have stood - He was worried VAR was going to rule it out - bullshite officiating again!

[SheppyFox]

Expected 

[dylanlegend]

Even Dawson knew It was handball in his interview. VAR ****ed us today

[EnderbyFox]

It's a shit rule but technically it's not a hand-ball. Hits the top of his arm. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

More annoyed at our pathetic attempt at defending yet another set-piece and 90+ minute goal.

He knows it's a handball given that response in the interview right now.  Facial expression says it all.  Guilty.  Got away with it.  Disgrace.

[kingkisnorbo]

Rodgers apologists will say we played well. Yeah, we didn’t. What more does he have to to do? Shag your Mrs?

I’ve gone beyond rage into just acceptance and hope that it won’t last forever 

[splinterdream]

Id really like to see a replay of that handball goal
