       Poor performance from Taylor. Neither penalties are correct in
       my opinion.

       I thought Longstaff was offside which is why the clear foul by
       Endo wasn’t given but he was clearly on, so it is astonishing
       that wasn’t given yet the Jota one was.

       Think todays performance sums Taylor up this season in the
       premier league, you dont know whether he is going to give a
       penalty or not for similar offences from game to game.
       You can argue either way for each of the penalties, the second
       one Attwell on var was never going to overturn as he gave a
       similar penalty kick last saturday. To me the second penalty
       given was simlar to the one he gave against wolves earlier in
       the season, which was believed to be incorrect?
       Seems nowadays you can get a penalty kick for the slightest of
       touches on a player, falling belatedly but not get one if a
       player has his shirt pulled off his back or you take the lace
       out of the ball.
       If the forward in the second penalty award had stayed on his
       feet would it have been given?
       Good spectacle, some good advantages, some brilliant real time
       offisde calls correct by each AR. Should have booked JoeLinton
       for the cynical foul (unsporting behaviour) which failed to stop
       a promising attack as the referee played advantage. I doubt
       JoeLinton would have then committed the foul he did to get
       cautioned if he had already been cautioned previously.

       ANother game which convinces me even more that I shoud not waste
       money going to watch players whose sole intent is to 'con' the
       officials. The amount of players falling over, holding their
       heads and rolling over and over in their attempts to influence
       officials is now getting beyond a joke.
       Players win the ball fair and square but are penalised because
       they are too aggressive or whatever reason is now given. May I
       ask if this is still a contact sport because in my 500+ games as
       a semi-pro when I was in the RAF a lot of these players would
       have been laughed at. Similarly, when I refereed after I
       retired, some of the ludicrous behaviour of players would have
       been dealt with amicably but with a stern warning as to  their
       future conduct.
       THank goodness that I can spend my money in watching Ashington
       play in the Pitching Northern Premier League East where the
       players get on with the game and the officials do their best.
       They make mistakes but players, management, fans etc. accept
       that and get on with the game which is so much more enjoyable
       without all the histrionics of the 'elite' game!

       Some of the advantages he played though were sublime.
       Nunn and Beswick had cracking games. They didn’t get a thing
       wrong.

       Tbf- I actually agree with TTFL. Tonight was one of Taylor’s
       stronger performances. Only errors for me were not booking
       joelinton in 1st half and the 2nd penalty which was a poor
       decision. But Taylor has previous this season for soft/ wrong
       penalty decisions.
       Liverpool were worthy winners on the night regardless of the
       penalty decision

       Having seen both penalties I don't think either of them are
       penalties especially the 2nd one where I genuinely cannot see
       any contact and am surprised that VAR did not recommend a OFR
       where as with the 1st one there is contact but not enough for me
       to say that it should have been a penalty.

       Liverpool absolutely should have won.
       But there needs to be an explanation as to how Endo’s clear foul
       on Longstaff was not given as a penalty (Liverpool went straight
       up the other end and scored to make it 2-1).
       There was more contact there than on either of the penalties
       that were given.
       As for Jota, it is embarrassing for all involved. It is never a
       penalty in a million years.

       With regard to the Endo challenge on Longstaff perhaps there was
       too much contact

       VAR was Stuart Attwell who proved on Saturday at Villa that
       there is only a need for a very minimal conact to award a
       penalty, therefore, he would not get involved. Sad isn't it?
