      That was never a penalty as the video proved, he never made contact should have been booked for cheating.

      Yeah thought exactly the same myself. Couldn't believe everyone on BT thought different. But obviously going that route gives them more talking points and "clicks", even if it is a completely incorrect opinion

      Wonder if kids in Spanish playgrounds go round waving imaginary cards like these lot do.

      Does my head in.

      The ones I played in Majorca on holiday whe  I was a younger did.

      Itz just in their culture I think, because all us English kids just wanted to do was try and score dead fast where they used to tiki taka it about until we wilted in the heat. They got more satisfaction from nutmegging you then they did scoring a goal. Second you touched them though down like a sh*t rolling about.

      Anyway. We are a hard watch during games but ill be rewatching that one back over the comfortable 2-0 we probably should have played out.

      Exciting team to watch and a good team to bet on because boy do we score goals and concede them.

      Ronnie Whelan on Irish TV was adamant it was a penalty for Athletico and couldn't believe it wasn't given.. F**k off..

      Just read that this is the first time in Simeone's tenure at Atletico that they've conceded three at home in Europe. Enough said.

      Boss game of footy that from start to finish. Delighted with the win

      Simeone's a gobs***e but I still can't help but love him. The way he gets the crowd going is great. Pantomime villan when you're playing him but I'm sure there isn't an Atletico fan who doesn't absolutely adore him.

      Regarding their penalty though - did Jota even actually touch him?? Watched the 700 replays like everybody else was subjected to and still couldn't say for definite if there was contact

      Same here, Simeone is a weapon but if he was your manager you'd love him. Absolutely thrives on the siege mentality and they must hate him at Real and Barca so that'll do for me.

      Did love him running down the tunnel and refusing to shake hands at the end. The injustice of it all!!!! They are always the best wins for me

      Good god that game had literally everything, this is why I love football soooo much when you get Champions League games like tonight, oh the drama, the highs and lows, the amazing win to beat them on their home ground and for all Simeone's shenanigans, well in the end it didn't really help them did it  :D Can't wait for the return at Anfield...bring it on  :scarf: :scarf: :scarf: :scarf: :scarf:

      Brilliant result tonight lads, they kept their heads and came out deserved winners.

      Reminds me a bit of Mourinho when he was at Porto

      Another thing I'll give him is he hasn't fu**ed off somewhere else. Sure he must have had offers left right and centre over the years but he's stayed there. Fair play to him!

      He’s the highest paid manager in the world by a long stretch and he’s spent a bomb on that squad.

      Unaware he was the highest paid!

      Worth every penny though in my opinion. He's moulded a half decent club into one of the elite & most feared sides in Europe

      Had no idea he was paid so much. Almost twice as much as Pep in 2nd place.

      Simeone was making himself look an idiot with all the cheerleader crap for 90mins and then went running off like a child because he lost.

      Game was crying out for Thiago to be honest, we really lacked someone in midfield taking control of the tempo, hopefully he will be back for the next game.

      Literally forgot we have Thiago, old biscuit legs.

      Hendo, Milner and Keita is a very pedestrian midfield and even substituting Thiago and Fab in there it’s still just as slow.

      Is and will be a huge issue for us unless Curtis and Ox can step up, which I’m sceptical.

      As captain, let’s all agree Henderson had a bit of a shocker.

      Even Fabs struggled to control the midfield - it was the weirdest game ever.

      Atletico were miles better than us with 10 men - just couldn’t work it out, they had so many chances.

      The blind back heel in midfield which resulted in a very dangerous counter attack summed up his day. It’s ok, I’m sure he wasn’t happy about his performance also.

      That was a brave (and correct) refereeing decision to disallow that Atletico penalty. I thought for sure he was going to cave and give it to appease the home crowd. He had a bit of a wobble in the 5-10 minutes after giving the red card where he got conned into booking Milner and gave a few cheap free kicks to Atletico, but on the whole he did a pretty good job.

      The double-whammy for Atletico with the red card is that Griezmann will miss the return game at Anfield which will benefit us.

      9 points from 3 games, 5 points and +6 GD ahead of 2nd place, with two home games to come. Glorious position to be in. Hopefully we'll beat Atletico again in two weeks with Porto not winning in Milan to seal 1st place with 2 games to spare.
