Or am I mistaken?
Usually that constitutes an offside, however this is Liverhoof, they bring their own officials.

Djourou was goalside of him so he was not offside. :x

If Keane was offside dont you think Wenger would have mentioned it after the game.
Djourou fell asleep

sometimes a foul starts outside the area but the player goes down inside
and there's a debate - fk or penalty

carragher has taken this to its logical conclusion - his fouling starts before kick off and goes on till after the final whistle

when does the ref blow up for it? never

Webb is a bald northern arsenal hating cheat
whenever we get him we suffer a red or a pen

I'd like to apologise to Liverpool fans for any silly Hillsborough comments
some things are obviously more importnt than football

I'd aslo like to say as a club I have respect for Liverpool, at the beginning of any season I'd far rather they win things than Chelski or Manure

Now I'd like to slag them off
if the policeforce suffer from institutional racism Liverpool fc suffers from institutional cheating

carragher gets away with more fouls in one game than most teams commit in a season

EVERY time liverpool lose the ball there is an instant foul
its stategic, they have been told and coached to cheat

ade got two yellows, I only saw it live and my virgin box failed to record motd2, but I believe both times he was in posession

he didnt want to commit a foul he wanted to keep the ball
yet lieva and carra deliberately obviously and brazenly commited fouls every time we got the ball

ateotd I guess its unfair to blame liverpool - if the ref allows it players will try it (webb hates arsenal)
the 100% undisguised pre-determined tactic of early deliberate fouls left a bitter taste in my mouth

great atmosphere though - amazing to see liverpool a club we have a generally good relationship with generate such hate

their cheating in the CL last season obv contributed (as has their decade of ugly football) but I still cant hate the club like I hate manure and the chavs
