Final Score Brentford 1 (KLP) Liverpool 2

Brentford 1 (KLP) Liverpool 2

Been back only about half an hour, thanks to a truck sideways across the M27. What a wonderful way to end a sh*te day. The scouser dive, the ref was very 50/50, and we were rubbish for nearly the whole game. It happens, doesn't mean I have to like it.

I didn't think we were rubbish at all.

It's on the BBC so must be true...."Previously unbeaten Brentford paid a heavy price for the red card given to Yehor Yarmoliuk in first-half added time for a "headbutting action" - in the words of referee John Brooks - on Liverpool defender Jeremy Jacquet."

In my opinion the ref should have sorted out the squabbling. Yehor was looking at and pleading with the ref to stop Jacquet walking into him fouling him. ( not looking at the ball from a corner) Virgil van Dijk was also involved as he always is. Yehor turns his head towards Jacquet to give him a kiss on the cheek, probably, and his legs give way. I thought he had an aneurysm.

It like what we see in the world, protect the rich and f*** the rest! Disgraceful refereeing, we will bounce back.

In my view - different from yours i do accept - i thought that Liverpool dominated us for about the first 30 minutes and all of the second half. As I said, it happens.

We just didn't click like previous games and our midfield were a shadow of their normal selves. As I said, it happens, but why did it have to bloody pick today. Bah.

I genuinely thought Jacquet had died.
Not moving for over a minute, i feared the worst for him.
Then realised he is just a scumbag cheat.

Perhaps we should acknowledge that we are generally too honest. Brentford gets fouled, we get up and get on with it. Most of our opponents respond to every 50/50 ball as if they’ve had their legs snapped off. And week in week out refs reward the cheats.

Sunderland, Villa, now Liverpool have benefited from only barely disguised cheating.

I’m glad we’re not them. But unless referees are going to reward our honesty it’s going to cost us all season.

Shame Thiago didn't finish that cross from Anthony. To me, he didn't seem aggressive enough to make sure he got to it. Just needed any decent connection.

2-2 would have been a fair result overall and a great point in the circumstances.

Lacked any belief whatsoever to get there. So poor.

VAR just showed slow-mos the wholetime. I thought they had to show full speed too?

Watching that back, it’s such a terrible call. I’m 100% certain that if that’s the exact same incident in exact reverse it’s still their guy that goes down and Yarmo gets red.

And the pundits would all say Yarmo should be facing the ball, should not provoke the contact, etc.

Just watched MotD highlights.
He did actually get there first.
Got a toe end to the ball just in front of VvD.
Admittedly, obviously didnt get enough on it.

Clearly I must have been watching a different game, that’s definitely not how I saw it.
And whilst I’m in whinge mode it really winds me up that people keep describing us as overly physical and comparing us with 1980s Wimbledon which we are absolutely not. Yet Villa, Liverpool today and other big clubs get away with the dark arts with no comment.

John Brooks -2. Brentford -1

Brooks has form for bad refereeing.

He produces more cards than a magician dies from a hat.

Inconsistent decisions throughout, and favouring the Liverpool playacting.

Liverpool are not up to much if they feel good about this win, they just scraped together, because they could only just about beat 10 men, let alone the final 9.

They would never have beaten our full 11.

There was a good football match about to break out, until Brooks did his normal thing of I want you to look at me - I’m the ref.

Well fought Bees, you deserved a draw, but we are still a very good team regardless of today!

This was definitely a pre-match Liverpool tactic.

Complain that they were hard done by for the Gravenberch sending off last week and then have us painted as overly physical. All designed to influence the referee before the match has started.

Iraola sides always do this.

It was a red, at least the ‘action’ gave the ref a decision to make. Some gamesmanship from Liverpool/Jacquet, but a calmer more experienced head would have realised where he was being led. He’s young, he’ll learn, but his lack of discipline cost Brentford today. Positives that 11vs11, Brentford looked comfortable.

Yellow for this :ROFLMAO:

But not a yellow for the Liverpool coach/sub entering the field of play however

Kev does like to chuck the opposition about these days, doesn't he? Needs to put a lid on it a bit. Except when it comes to Matt Cash. Chuck him as far as you like mate.

I mean, what is the point, just makes the game a mockery when that ginger **** play acts like that, yet, absolutely nothing is done about it

You cant have a good football in which the smaller team win.

Just been looking through socials and Liverpool fans are crying about Wirtz dive in the box as a stonewall pen.
Am i missing something as he clearly just collapsed to the floor for no reason other than Yarmos arm was near him

Yes he had an arm across him and yet somehow managed to fall forwards. Physics eh?

I can't add anything substantial to what has been said here already. But this game was was another stark reminder why I can't enjoy modern football. It seems like cheaters get away with everything now. No honor, no self-respect, just desire to win at all costs even if you look like a clown in a process. Now I hate Liverpool again.

We seem to see worse and worse every season. Because it’s always rewarded and never punished. I’m not far behind you.

Pressed the like by mistake. Sorry don’t agree with your comments at all. In my opinion I thought overall we were the better team in the first half ( borne out by the BbC interview after the game. Liverpool were there for the taking but the red card changed the whole impetus of the game. I do however think Wilson should have come on to replace Thiago for the last 10 minutes.
Proud of the performance today.

There was no pull, no grab of the shirt, just an arm on him.
If thats "stonewall" then there are 10 penalties conceded per corner 🤷‍♂️
