For some nothing but crazy reasons, I had Liverpool to lose 2 - 1, I already had Leceister to win and missed to make a pick for Southampton vs Burnley (I would have gone with the former, though).

It's still goalless at the 55th minute, could it be today ? Grin

In Liverpool match you and me has one thing in common which is to have 3 goals 🤪

2 - 1 win against Liverpool means beating Alisson twice in a match. I doubt it's possible for any team considering the current from of Liverpool team. Almost 15 minutes gone from the 2nd half and yet no action though but I am still confident that the deadlock will break soon and we will see more than 1 goals from Liverpool.

I too had Leicester and it sucks how this team slowed down after some good run in the league. Southampton vs Burnley was a disappointment.

I went with a 3 - 0 for today's match. I am expecting Liverpool to go all attack in the 2nd half. Good for Norwich that they were able to restrict LFC without scoring any goal.

^ Rofl. Pretty sure throwing City down to League 2 is def not true. What a disaster that would be.

There are reports that the same fate had befell juventus in time past
And that not only were they banned, they had point deductions too.

Perhaps Mancity are able to buy their way out of a 2 year ban, but if point deduction applies ; then league 1 or the championship is inevitable.

Totally crap. I had a big parlay with wolves to win (and what great value that was), but that wasn't even the point, this is yet another reason for me to hate VAR so far. Btw there is a bet for wolves to win a champs league spot at 24/1. Good for anyone or they can't win games enough?

VAR sucks most of the time however I had Leicester to win and it was really frustrating to see another draw in this round. I really feel terrible when a match ends with a draw.

In today's match Liverpool got a massive favor from Alisson in around 36th minutes or so. In last 10 matches Alisson had 9 clean-sheet which is quite impressive and this is why I went with a 3 - 0 for today's match. I am expecting Liverpool to go all attack in the 2nd half. Good for Norwich that they were able to restrict LFC without scoring any goal.

Those are rather to extreme measures imo, If at all they were to be found guilty, and to be honest I'm not going to believe everything from the media, they always make a mountain out of a molehill.

Be interesting to see what the English FA & PL do, their rules have been broken too.

I'm expecting: Relegation to the Championship and removal of every trophy they've won (starting from 2012) that's currently running under the The Football Association (Premier League, FA Cup, Community Shield, EFL Cup) ...But meh, we all know The FA won't do anything, Mansour's probably bribing the entire FA board as we speak Roll Eyes

I'm just waiting for Man City to start selling players next summer because of debt and whatnot. I'll send Zidane a DM asking him to sign De Bruyne and Rodri, and maybe Bernardo Silva to replace Bale lol

I think possibly on appeal they’ll get a smaller fine & a 1 year CL ban instead of 2. UEFA have to be strong, no way City get away with nothing, they’ve been making a mockery of FFP for years.

Whoa - Man City banned from Europe 20/21 and 21/22 seasons .

Manchester City banned from European club competitions for two seasons by Uefa https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/51510284

Just heard about this and wrote a post with couple more links in it, this will hurt city badly but they still have right to appeal. If punishment stays like this it will set City back for a long time.

Wooow... That changes eeeverything. Looking forward to see Chris Wilder and his men at the CL tho. Lolol. Sheffield United vs Barca anyone? Grin

I find on local newspaper today, that Premier League also thinking about punishing Manchester City. There is a fake financial report to PL and UEFA, it is against PL rules also, and it is a possible penalty, subtraction of points which is not a big deal, they can't win the league and no European games for sure, but there is a possibility to be thrown into a lower rank like English League 2.

Btw did anyone hear about City ban in CL? Huge news but I haven't read into it... Pep will leave almost for sure without european football. And they will focus fully on EPL damn. Even tougher for Pool to defend the title!

The offside call was for the guy who was taking the corner. He played short ball and when player returned it to him, his trailing leg (tip of the heel) was still few millimeters behind last defender. Totally stupid, but there you have it.

Did anyone else see Wolverhampton's goal which was disallowed by another controversial VAR call ? Goal or not ?

I watched the game. Pisstake.

I'm still not entirely sure if it was offside.

It never should have been an offside call imo, Let's analyze this way, the corner was played short to Jota(which definitely according to the rules can't be offside right ? And it was played back to who ever took the corner (he was clearly onside too, as shown in the screenshots below), He crossed the ball into the box (then Jota was totally eliminated from the play, he has no influence whatsoever on the play) How was that ever even a call to be reviewed to begin with ? There was absolutely no protest from any Leceister player, not even the staffs.

For those looking to make a call you can find the highlight in the link below, It's a 7 minutes video but you can start from 3:57 to see goal in question.

https://highlightsfootball.net/video/wolverhampton-vs-leicester-city-highlights/

Well that's what I was thinking and other people were saying that was the case, but the commentators or pundits after the game didn't bring that up, and how would all the officials get that wrong? Must have been something else going on surely to allow it? Regardless, this is another example of VAR going out of their way and looking for something. Not a single player Leicester player complained. Things should only be reviewed at request of the team or manager.

Bitcoin needs you!

Just watched the match - VAR is what it is - at the moment !
This sort of tech has massively improved cricket and rugby , but it is in its infancy in football . Over the next couple of seasons it will improve and adapt as the rules for VAR improve and adapt . It’s a feedback mechanism!
The craziest thing is that every media channel that has spent millions on showing premiership football now has a ‘Valid “ reason to justify the airtime pre and post match and can now tell their bosses that they have actually anything to discuss AND that viewers will be interested !
Sorry beer rant over

They'll appeal and likely win. Punishment does seem quite harsh, but at the same time there really does need to be some ramification for breaking these sorts of rules otherwise clubs will just break them continually and eat the fines. If they don't manage to appeal successfully I wonder how this will effect the big players with no Champion's League football? A lot of them could leave.

Pep when he sees the UEFA ban news

https://twitter.com/kayabellz/status/1228413650026799107?s=21

How much you love seeing Man City fail cannot overestimated, Lol. Isn't it bad enough that they're getting hammered in the league, It would be rather more fun to see them get eliminated early than not being eligible to play, wouldn't it ?

I get to kick off another week with no points for Wolves vs Leicester, even if I were to go for a draw, I would have gone for nothing less than 2 goals apiece.

Yes this VAR is going to be more controversial because as they are doing its not acceptable but still we cannot do any thing just comments and reactions I am really shocked with this decsion.

VAR should be scrapped until these clowns really know what they are doing, How the fuck can you check for a possible offside for someone who's got nothing to do with the play ?

If they do loose the appeal -
- Pep leaves?

1) IMO Pep will probably leave no matter the final decision from the CAS (Court of Arbitration for Sport ).

Quote from: Mbitr on February 14, 2020, 02:48:29 PM

- Which players leave ?

2) Those who have ambition? Premier League is good and all but, the Champions League IS the most prestigious competition in Europe. If you're a top player not playing in the CL, might as well just go to a low-tier club or league.

Yep - I’m sure Pep will go AND some major players - Man City will have loads of cash and no Top quality players .
@LFC_Bitcoin - something tells me you’re a happy man - lol
