Gary Neville was not content with the choice to send Curtis Jones off for Liverpool today

The Reds were given their third red card of the Head Association season on Sunday, with Jones the most recent to be provided his walking orders.

It looked a little cruel on the 22-year-old, and commentating for Sky Sports, Gary Neville expressed that there was no plan from the Liverpool man.

“I know while you’re doing somebody, he wasn’t there to do somebody,” said the savant. “He’s showing him the end movement [on the VAR screen], yet that is not how it’s wound up there.


“His foot simply slips over the ball. Not really for me a red card and destroying the game is going.”

Liverpool see red once more
What is the deal with Liverpool this season. Over Jurgen Klopp’s time at the club up until this point, the Reds have scarcely seen a player shipped off.

Yet, after only six-and-a-half Head Association games, three players have now seen red.

Very much like the choice to send Alexis Macintosh Allister off against Bournemouth, this was another dodgy one.

It was over the ball from Jones, that is not questionable. Yet, there was no malignance by any means from the foundation graduate.

Rather, as Neville says, he won the ball, then slipped over it. In sluggish movement it looks awful, however watch it in max throttle and you can see the real essence of the test.

With the Reds a man down, it wasn’t some time before they confronted one more marginally questionable choice from the authorities. Luis Diaz was declared to be offside when he cleared home a pass from Mohamed Salah. Be that as it may, despite the fact that it looked extraordinarily close, the check was over in no time. Unusual.

From that point on, it seemed to be just truly going one way in the main half. As he typically does, Child Heung-Min sprung up to score against Liverpool once more. Fortunately, Cody Gakpo replied back in added time, game on!
