Bang on the money..Fuck me, it was dirty. Just accept it ffs.
He got away with one. We got away with it.
You're at Cult of Klopp levels of delusion if you don't think he was in the wrong.

Thanks. Yeah, Isak knew what he was doing and made no attempt for the ball. That's a red card in rugby, so it should be a red card in football. Reckless endangerment.39 mins in the 1st half.
The other thing about Romero is that we need him to play on the front foot and be aggressive winning the ball back to play this style of football.
But coming back I just rewatched it as well, his studs are never raised, he goes for the ball and he makes contact with the foot. It was a genuine, late challenge that's it. I do agree that in that circumstance he didn't need to make a tackle because Wilson was on the floor and going nowhere.
Bday good?I suspect what you can’t fathom would fill several hundred encyclopaedias.

Side note: I saw a lot of people claiming Martinelli's attempted crippling was no worse than Kane did on a regular basis, but other than that one that got Kane the bad rep for doing it (was on the edge of the box, he stopped abruptly and the guy went over his head), I don't recall Kane doing anything anywhere near as bad as that. He certainly didn't walk through players legs while they were off the ground.
Fuck, I'm still fuming. Someone needs to break his legs. Hopefully Bednarek.
Was going to give a agree, but then you brought VAR into the chat.I get your point but you can't really compare Keane's day to the current era we are in.
The threshold for tackles that warrant a red is now much lower, not to mention everything being analysed in detail by VAR.
I love his aggression but I personally think it is over the top and he has now got a rep which is hard to shake off. We need him on the pitch to make a difference
The only one talking shit is you. What you think damage can't be done through the boot. It was on the ankle.. . Lucky he didn't do serious damage. And the ball was a mile away nasty stupid challenge...
Fucking thank you!!Most of us think he was in the wrong. We just don’t think it was red because it didn’t meet the standard for a red.
you actually denied that there was any connection on Wilsons ankle ffs lol.Literally ON the boot. You are just making shit up to suit your argument now.
Nooo. It was an 'orange' tackle at best. And not a blood-orange one, but just a normal tangerine-y coloured one. Nothing more.Romero dodged a bullet yesterday. Shocking challenge that warranted a red. Look at his reaction post-tackle.
Could you imagine the scenes on here if Dunk, Maguire or some other donkey inflicted that challenge on Sarr or Son.
Get a grip. It was a red and he got away with it. About time we got away with something considering West Ham's goals!
Move on to Friday.
there would be absolute scenes if that was against us (and the ironic thing is that most of the noise would be coming from the exact same people that are claiming this 'tackle' wasn't so bad).Romero dodged a bullet yesterday.

Now watch it in slowmo.Extended his arms as well to add a push. So much more dangerous than any tackle.
Some of you , I swear some of these posts wouldn't look out of place on RAWK, the level of delusion is just hilarious to me, sorry.
