And just like that City are 5 pts back with 2 matches in hand. They are inevitable.

Well yeah. We play Wolves at home final game. 

We always lose by a point to them when we play Wolves last match at Anfield

It was an embarrassing performance from Liverpool, absolutely deserve nothing from this game. Just a shame we didn't make Arsenal work for a single goal. Handed every single one to them!

This was the flag display before Luton on Saturday:

They've just announced (late) the rest of the March tv fixtures. Chelsea on a Monday night...

Although it'd be a while before it got implemented by the PL, sin bins can fuck off, by the way.

I'm sure giving spotlight-seeking PL referees a shiny new kind of punishment to dish out for very subjective incidents won't cause any controversy at all.

[Baddar]

It's just bollocks. We already had Dalot given a double yellow for one instance of dissent this season, then not even a week later, similar reactions going completely unpunished. 

This will just lead to twats like Dermot Gallagher backing all the decisions the refs made, despite no consistency being applied whatsoever. Throwing 10min sin bins into the mix will cause uproar, especially when some teams are seen to be allowed to protest more than others with no punishment.

Think Van Dijk's the only one fined for dissent this season as well. 

Its like the whole start of the season the crack down on waving yellow cards. Saw Nunez/Mac Allister booked in seperate games and then Joelinton went on a waving rampage and got fuck all in our match then Udogie did it while on a yellow and got fuck all. 

Remember that season they were gonna crack down on pulling shirts in the box and there was 2 pens in the opening week and then nothing happened after. You'll get the same with blue cards.

 Manchester City being evil shit bags? There's only one gif for this. To quote the great lawyer, Vincent LaGuardia Gambini:

Isn't there a massive element here of "if the referee sees it"? Because I've heard you mention Joelinton on this before and having been at that game I certainly didn't. And Van Dijk was acting a right twat.

That's just an instance cause he did it that many times to the ref and nothing happened. But it happens like every game players asking for bookings and nothing happening cause its the classic this is the thing we're cracking down on (for 2/3 weeks)

Van Dijk was a twat that time. I do agree and he held his hands up over it.

One of these rare occurrences there that makes you think "what's the law again", Diaz fouls DCL off the pitch with the ball still in play. Where is the free kick taken from? 5 yards onto the pitch apparently.

Indirect free-kick on the nearest boundary line to where the offence occurred.

[Szumi]

Honestly don't understand how our goal stood there. Feel like Burnley was hard done by.

Pretty much sums up the fact refs genuinely don't care where dead balls are taken from.

[Bobfoc]

I thought VAR was supposed to be designed to hurt Liverpool.

[DavidMarrio]

One of those games where you go "well if you wanna win the league you need to win when playing bad"

If Burnley had anyone who was half-decent at finishing would have been a different result

[Gazz]

At this point, you can't blame Big Dan Burn because Eddie is just setting him up to fail.
