Somewhat overlooked re Liverpool but their tap-up / sit-back approach is behind so much of their problems.

Having pushed their interest in Isak and Guehi - they made derisory bids for both.

Then waited.

The result? Isak's head and fitness wrecked and the Guehi deal ran out of time.

Ref was very strange tonight.

This trend of match officials just making it up as they go along needs to be given more attention by the media

Still haven’t seen a repeat of a foul being given for an attacking player being too close to the wall at a free kick (Eze’s disallowed goal for CPFC)
