We didn't deserve to win stop blaming the ref. We looked sluggish and rightly so after playing 48 hours ago
----------------------------------------------------------------------
It's all very well saying stop blaming the ref, but he was poor. The fact that we weren't at our best doesn't change that. I don't know why some people think that if a team plays poorly it excuses a poor refereeing performance.

Exactly. Ref was poor and has got nothing to do with our performance. It was never easy playing away after a tough game against City. I'm sure it was Klopp tactic to try to win with less effort. He almost succeeded

Let's not mention the ref every one of the them is shlte every week. We can not let teams like Sunderland score 2 goals.
As for come on Hammers or and come on Spurs 😳😳😳😳 proper fckng cringe when we need other teams to do it for us.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Silly comment even from you. Every team relies on other teams to beat their rivals.

The ref was poor. He looked like he couldn't wait to give the penalties.
Having said that, some of our lads weren't at their best today. Chelsea may lose their next game meaning that this is one point gained as opposed to 2 points lost

But we need to win our games Igor, Chelsea can feel bit more relaxed knowing that we could of been breathing down their necks. A truly shocking day

I dont believe any referee is really biased due to where they hail from, its just that some are so p!$$ poor at their jobs that bothers me.
Give me 10 referees from Manchester who are good at there jobs over 10 refs from around the country who are flucking clueless.
Well maybe not 10.

Part of the problem as well is they never get demoted for poor performances anymore either.

Geo....
A few years ago the officials were getting slammed for being extra sh!t and to stop players shouting / confronting them they introduced the respect campaign - what a load of b0ll0x - aka you're not allowed to tell us how bad we are.
You can not appeal a yellow card ??? Who the flying fck came up with that one
