What are you guys talking about? City have no chance... Oops, wrong city. I thought this was the Championship thread!
The entire world has noticed that apart from one man, Mark Hughes Having now seen the match on MOTD, I think the first Liverpool goal was legitimate. It does not look like all the ball went over the line, so by the laws of the game the ball was still in play. That goal was down to bad defending more than a dodgy decision.
So the cheating West Ham forward is getting a two match ban. how about a 3 point deduction for his club as well.
But West ham scored 2 other goals and Stoke didn't score so unfair to punish the team. If anyone should have points deducted is the Everton for their player doing a superman impression a week ago. Also refs need to be consistent in what they give, there was 2/3 challenges in the City/Spurs games at the weekend that should have been red cards.
Personally I would deduct a point from a club for each lie that the manager tells before or after the game. Stoke would lose quite a few for Mark Hughes' regular bleating of 'we was robbed' and Manchester United would become the first team to relegated with negative points for all Mr Mourino's porky pies.
Nah never a pen in a million years. Any player would put there hands out to keep touch with the oppo player. Its done countless times every game, where is the pens for those ones? Not given as they are not penalties. Guy feels Loverns hands then jumps on the floor, because he knows what it would look like, conned the ref into that one. As it was the only way they were likely to score. Everton had taken the 1-0 lose, they had stopped playing well before that dodgy pen decision. No one will agree on that. Only Liverpool fans that will say its a pen are those that hate Lovern.
My computer is broken. Each time I look at the football results it says Stoke won. Need to get this bug fixed as soon as possible. Also I would like to congratulate Referee Moss on his new membership of the I Love Manchester United club.
Nice to watch Liverpool win without ever really getting out of third gear. Love Salah being annoyed at substituted because he had not scored yet....you want that desire from the team.
Now that was a satisfying win....best bit Can kicking the drop ball into the corner after they did that to us when they were winning to waste time (after we had already gave them back a drop ball gentlemanly). Salah one game goal draught ended too @bongorob Stoke going down?
Definately with Hughes in charge. Stoke are now the club which has conceded the most goals in the top division in Europe . Berahino failed to score yet again.
In 2017 Stoke City conceded 4 or more goals in 6 games, in 2016 they did so in 8 games. The total in two years is 14. During the period 2005-2015 Stoke conceded 4 or more goals on 14 occasions. Hughes can't work out that zonal marking is not working. My prediction is lose tomorrow at home to Newcastle and get thrashed in the F.A. Cup at league two (Division 4) side Coventry. Then hopefully bye, bye Hughsie.
