Bobby was a good goal scorer though. He may have not been elite, but he was a reliable goal scorer.

Here’s my take: It’s a soft call. I’ll be honest, I have no fucking clue if VAR can/should go back that far in the play after a goal is scored.
What I can say is, Mac’s arm influenced his control of the ball. It happens in football. Most footballers wouldn’t call that a handball but by the definition of the law, it might be.
To me, the discussion shouldn’t be whether or not it was a handball. To me the discussion should be: Should/can the officials rewind the play that far back to disallow a goal for that?
It was very rarely spoken about, but there was no doubt that Mo and Mane had a bit of a rocky relationship.
Around 2020, Mane basically stopped celebrating goals. Even when he scored, his emotions were extremely muted. Some people thought it was due to his religion and trying to be modest, but it was fairly obvious there was more to it. You could often see Bobby trying to get Mane to celebrate goals and joke with him when he scored. The thing was, Bobby kept getting injured so he couldn’t play that role in the team as often.
In the end, if nothing else, it shows the level of professionalism within the squad and the brilliance of Klopp. Even with stuff going on in the background, none of this nonsense leaked out and the team generally speaking performed at a high level. When we had our dips, they were easy to explain and almost always down to injuries and a lack of transfers.
Still can’t figure out why Bayern couldn’t use Gravenberch. He’s not an A+++ player right now, but he’s proven to be a solid and exciting young player.
They can’t hear you. They have hundred dollar bills stuffed in their ears.
The problem with the current situation is both sides decided to walk away from each other instead of towards each other.
So where 15 years ago, sitting down and figuring something out was on the agenda, now the agenda is genocide.
I don’t see this ending well for anyone, but it’s also pretty clear it’s going to end a lot worse for the Palestinians.
