West Brom 3-0 Liverpool: In game and Post Match debate

We seriously dun have enuff quality players.. Few are good.. Few of the players are aged.. Most of them are sub-standard..

Everything that could go wrong has gone wrong. 2 pens, wonder goal, red card, Coles hamstring....

Long took the ball. Skrtel took Long.

Skrtel kicked an opposite player inside the area, and never found the ball. It's the very definition of a penalty.

when it comes to textbook then yes it was a penalty, but the ref have to take the situation into consideration too. Skrtel didnt know long was there. silly penalty but we lost the game because we were poor and not the decisions against us.

I am unsure whether to laugh or cry. This is ridiculous.

The final blow...

Hope so, there's time left yet!

Terrible, terrible day.  I know we are down to ten men, but we weren't great before that.

This is really embarrassing.

Can we please just put 9 behind the ball and take 3-0 please?

When do the Olympics start?

Dun say this is only our first game.. We dun have the luxury to start playing well after 5 games..

when it comes to textbook then yes it was a penalty, but the ref have to take the situation into consideration too. Skrtel didnt know long was there. silly penalty but we lost the game because we were poor and not the decisions against us.

It doesn't matter a F**k if Skrtel knew he was there or not. He kicked him, penalty, end of story.

Suarez another sitter! He should be heading that in

Disgraceful defending. Just pathetic.

It's a good learning curve for Brendan. He has to realise now he cannot put his faith in cowards like Downing. He needs to get ruthless

We need a proven world class goal scorer because Suarez misses too many chances and we have no one else with a real  goal threat.

Suarez is sh*te in front of goal, I worry if he's leading the line all season

How do you miss that. Bit of a shocker from Luis.

when it comes to textbook then yes it was a penalty, but the ref have to take the situation into consideration too. Skrtel didnt know long was there. silly penalty but we lost the game because we were poor and not the decisions against us.

What the F**k does it matter that Skrtel didn't know he was there? That's Skrtel and our team's fault not being aware of him.

I'm done though.

No excuses need to be made for today. Silly fouls, silly mistakes and not taking chances. Story of the day.

So kicking a player inside the area isn't a foul. Why? Intention doesn't come to it, read the rules of the game.

I've played this game since before slow motion replays existed. The rules are there to be interpreted by refs using common sense.

Brendon, Brendon, Brendon what the F**k are ya going to do now.

Suarez misses quite an astonishing amount of chances for such a talented individual.

when it comes to textbook then yes it was a penalty, but the ref have to take the situation into consideration too. Skrtel didnt know long was there. silly penalty but we lost the game because we were poor and not the decisions against us.

Well the rules are a textbook, the referee just acted accordingly. Skrtel not knowing he was there was Skrtel's mistake, the ref has absolutely nothing to do with it.

Just think if it was the other way round - Suarez is kicked by a defender who never got the ball. We would all be crying for penalty...

Harsh on Andy Carroll to bring him on when we are 3 F***ing nil down.
