This is such a strange post. So you don’t think it should’ve been a red, but you’re mad it wasn’t a red because you think it would’ve been a red with the roles reversed? So with all the officiating errors and issues every week, the thing that’s bothering you is the red card that wasn’t brandished for a tackle you also don’t think is a red? As others have pointed out, Liverpool have had 4 reds this year, and of them, there was debate on whether Jones deserved his, the independent panel said Jota’s 2 yellows were wrong, Virgil’s was suspect because Isak didn’t have control of the ball and wasn’t moving straight at goal (see Pascal Groß getting away with no card at all for a more egregious tackle on Szoboszlai 3 yards from a basically open goal), and MacAllister’s was rescinded for being flat out incorrect. Add to that Paul Tierney’s proven bias against Liverpool, and I think you’re left with a whole lot of nothing to support your argument. It wasn’t a red and wouldn’t have been for anyone. Let it go.

I second the Milner book. Came here to suggest it.

It’s called, “Ask a Footballer”, and he answers loads of questions from fans about not just Liverpool, but football and life as a footballer in general. Super interesting and easy read.
