First of all hard luck to the redmen. liverpool is just a special club like no other. Question for the eds. Are fifa, fa, uefa going to do anything about the constant diving, playacting? Watching sturridge and moreno look for penos was disgusting yesterday. Its in everygame i watch, i remember gordon watsons got slated in the early 90s for a dive. now grown men fall over with any contact or not contact eg young, sterling and most pros. when did this become acceptable?, i love soccer but hate what it has become, grown me rolling around then then sprinting seconds later. I remember watching a video of Barcelona practising diving/ simulation and it just made me sick.

This is the way the game is now, its all about trying to get your opponenets sent off.
This is why we need video refs, any player taking a blatant dive needs red carding.
Go back a couple off seasons I remember Ashley young every weekend diving for pens and getting them.

Video refs will signal the end of football as we know it. I'd like to see post match fines for obvious simulation such as Moreno.

I think the punishment for diving should fit the punishment for the player were it not a dive, especially in regards to cards. However in general, you can't tell the difference between a dive, foul and a player tripping over in real time (often the player doesn't even know) - you need a video ref.

I think it's crazy that video refs aren't in football yet. They've massively enhanced cricket and tennis and the only sport they've been a nuisance in is Rugby but I think that's got far more to do with how it's been implemented.
Team Captains should get two or three appeals a match. When requested the Captain states he thinks something's happened and the ref checks if he's right. Yesterday was a perfect example, it wouldn't have been advantageous to us but Toure could have told the ref to check the penalty incident and in seconds the correct decision could have been made. It would make the sport better not worse.

Long time looker, first time poster. Thanks for a great site. Before we want a new team and millions to be spent we need to stop been so weak and panicky when defending set pieces, crosses. I hope klopp has a solution/ system to solve this asap. Same applies to our attacking set plays.

Thank god. We could do with a few more lookers on here. Ed001 and Waro were scaring off all the ladies!

I wouldn't mind some decent crosses and corners from us, as well as being still worried when we face them ourselves!

My opinion is close to 20million may seem expensive but if he solves the problem and is our keeper for the next 5 to 10 years he will be worth it. Goalkeepers are such an important position yet some fans want us to break the bank for flash big names eg texeira. what value have we got from benteke 32m, lallana 25m, lovren 20m etc? . I want the best keeper we can get this summer above any outfield player whether that is stegen or another.

Ashley young. earing wearing diving cheat.

Nigel clough. He always seemed to destroy us with forest and i thought he would be real liverpool type player. Agree on litmanen also, what a brain.

Sean Dundee was no goalscoring machine.
