The Rest Is Football guys also staggered at the two yellow cards Just seen footage of Jürgen refusing to shake hands with Kavanagh after the Carabao final ( Caicedo stepping on Gravenberch's ankle ) and explaining why to the media afterwards He'd have rocked PGMOLs boat after yesterday. We need to find our balls again.

Yep. Anderson moves his leg out of the way and then falls down in three stages. Thing is, Kavanagh will ref a game during the next few weeks with lots of feisty tackles in the opening 15 mins and you won't see one yellow card. His list of errors or decisions which were advantageous for City is growing to near Oliver levels. And his mate on VAR was always going to back him

We had five a couple of years ago

We need massive squad investment in the next 18 months. Will mean we hardly spend a single Arsenal pound afterwards but needs to happen. Signing a few players next summer as we lose Alisson ( definitely ) and Virgil ( probably ) won't suffice. Needs to be 2017/18 type players.

I wish I'd gone in high on Webb last time I saw him

Chris Kavanagh 2022: Rodri handball vs Everton, no penalty awarded. PGMOL later apologised. 2023: Ødegaard handball vs Liverpool, no penalty awarded. Howard Webb later admitted it was an error. 2024: Stones' late winner vs Wolves, allowed despite Bernardo Silva being offside near the goalkeeper. 2025: Van Dijk's goal vs Man City — disallowed. Independent PL panel ruled it should have stood.

Only LFC fans and a few decent neutrals on social media This inept group of officials are ruining this league and Webb seems to have convinced Sky to tone down the criticism; Kelly Dalglish has been more proactive on the BBC

Pretty much every pundit on TV and social media saying the ref was a joke

He gets into Coutinho positions and then plays a Joe Allen pass or shot

How is Doku on Mac Allister not even a foul yet Gravenberch on Anderson is a yellow ?

Howard Webb. The man in charge, taking absolute b******s in favour of City

The first yellow was an absolute joke Contrast with Guehi. The refs in this league are appalling

Sinama-Pongolle was more influential than Wirtz I'm fact, that bench carried a greater threat than the one today

Neshed out of the challenge with Anderson and then feigned injury. Also - we need to start with three midfielders and he's not a front three player in this league

Who's signing him ? I mean, I'd take £40m but the club....

There's about half a dozen levels of despair to that game. City for a couple, the PGMOL, the failings of our recruitment department since Jürgen left, Slot ( we're still feeling it ) Could have been a great day without our injury issues but the other glaring cracks in the game would still be there

Red card from me if that's one of your first port of calls after that game, even if in jest.

Fernandez waved one earlier and nowt happened

I think they might have won anyway due to their bench v ours but Kavanagh did his job with the red card.

We're a bit meek these days - see Virgil on the Haaland goal The amount of fouls given away by making tackles from behind because we failed to win the ball first time. Two of the most important roles in the cub at a such a vital time and FSG appointed Edwards and Hughes knowing it was likely short term. It's f***ed us for a couple of years at least. Look at that third - we've given up.

What the f*** are you doing there Virgil ? You've given him a free shot

Wow. Sent off for those two tackles ?

Aye. Barcola and Kerkez in space. He's a bit s*** really

Noel. Like Ramsay Bolton. Protected by thousands of knuckle dragging inbreds and puffing his chest out c***. Wirtz FFS. That's s***.
