Apart from the early scare we were pretty much in control for the rest of the game. Great to see the young lad Delap back from that long injury lay off. Hopefully he'll get plenty of game time now to show us what he's got

Maybe Liverpool got confused (like I did last night) and put the wrong name on the paperwork, as there are 2 Carvalho's play for Fulham ???? Not sure but it seems the EFL didn't allow a 'Deal Sheet' to be issued for the loan back which had been agreed. This would extended the time allowed to cross t's and dot i's. AFAIK the fee was agreed, medical done and so, unless there is a change of heart by any of the parties, the deal should go through in the summer. 1
BangrakBob Posted February 7, 2022 Posted February 7, 2022 Looking forward to seeing this happen in a red shirt next season ???? 1
jellydog Posted February 9, 2022 Posted February 9, 2022 KDB my MOTM. He looks back to prime form. Long may it last. Also looks like City have found a deadshot PK taker in Mahrez. 1

He's getting to be a really special player now and some of his moves last night were marvelous. Agree with the penalty taker. Don't know why we struggled so much with penalties but now Mahrez seems settled on taking them. As for the game, it was pretty much as we expected I think but if anything I think we took our foot off the gas as if to conserve some energy. I'll take the 3 points all day long 1

But he plays pretty much as a midfielder sometimes when you have the ball

But he plays pretty much as a midfielder sometimes when you have the ball I get why you say that but it's mainly down to the high line we play and Pep using players in all sorts of position's. Cancelo plays best at left back and when we have the ball he overlaps into defensive midfield. However, he cuts inside a lot and has a great shot on him with both feet. I've heard people call him the best attacking left back in the league or a false left back. 1

The Premier League are saying no penalty was awarded because there was inconclusive evidence that the ball hit Rodri in the 'red zone', which is the area below the shirt line/armpit. Offside apparently not a factor. 1

Bias or Corruption? Too obvious to be just incompetence. 1 1

The ref didn't give it and the evidence to overturn his decision wasn't enough. It's one of those where if he had have given it, they wouldn't have overturned that either. Lucky - yes. Corrupt (as Wilai would like to think ????) - No

"They" ie Kavanagh, is hardly gonna admit he was in the wrong. As it clearly hit the arm and not the shoulder, Tierney should have at least been advised to check the monitor for himself. Apparently he wasn't asked/told to do so. I know you'll disagree (only person I've seen/read so far that does) but that smacks of more than just ineptness. It was a deliberate act. We all get good/bad VAR decisions so I have no problem with that, but last night's went beyond reasonable, fair behaviour IMO and could have serious repercussions for the Trickies (not that I'll complain about that????) 1

Liverpool (the same as us and United, Chelsea etc) have had loads of luck as well as decisions go against. There's no conspiracy going on.
