Why is the LFC starting lineup even close to being a gamble? It is not like he is starting a bunch of teenagers. Those who got benched have been very poor in recent games - why stick with them and just "hope for the best" instead of giving other capable, well-qualified players a chance to start?

[@blueshadow62]

He didn’t play his first line up or superstars Some say he’s given up on PL already‼️🙄 Either City win it or Arsenal by their GD crap 💩 City is the BEST story 4 History 🏆🏆🏆🏆

[@tomshif]

Since you guys in the media won't talk about the state of refereeing in the PL, good for Forest for having the spine that you lack.

[@danielakhimien5616]

I am with forest. If they lay a complain about it before the game, they have all the right to come out to lay that statement.

[@Daiymian]

5 Games left w/ Klopp. That Stings !

It’s the right time for Jurgen to go. New coach, new ideas. Liverpool will start a new chapter in their history.

Your job is to question everything, BUT not the pgmol? Not even talking ref missed calls, BUT var ruling opposite of what is right in front of their faces. Maybe a year in review of wrong var rulings and the impact on league results?

[@roshiniganesan8877]

I am sorry. We are fans of the game. And not blind. Your indignation over comments of quality of refereeing this season makes us question you and your integrity as journalists. No one else calling it out. So who else will? Shame on the bigger clubs to not do the same.

[@Inglese001]

VAR is hopeless. They make the wrong call again and again.

[@floridastacker]

Usually agree with Rebecca but did she see the game everyone else did?

[@Rain188]

I don’t understand the outrage over Forest statement? As fan of other clubs we all know that referees are corrupt. We seen it all season, it’s time that someone has the courage to call it as it is

[@jacoblau3795]

It is outrageous that a club says such things. Maybe you can do it as a personal account but as an official statement?? Its embarrassing. Plus a lot of the decisions are as how each person sees it. Just like a judge in court. Every judge is different just like a referee.

[@cabbagepatch4631]

Saying the decisions are unacceptable is one thing. Accusing the VAR of blatant corruption is another. NFFC said the VAR official is cheating and acting with bias with no real evidence. 2 of the penalty claims were 50/50, the third one was pretty stonewall. But referees have been incompetent all season and we’ve seen plenty of absolute penalties not given the whole season. No other club has issued a statement that directly accused a referee of bias this season, which is the outrage over this one.

[@sasogonzales8979]

@@cabbagepatch4631biased opinion has entered the chat…. The games where we dropped points (spurs 3 arsenal 2 man city 2) has definitely been affected by corrupted officials along with PGMOL

[@cabbagepatch4631]

@@sasogonzales8979 no. It’s just been incompetent refereeing. There’s a difference. You only notice it for your own club, but it’s happened to every single team across the season. City by far has had the least, but even for them the end of the game against spurs was incredulous. Even the very first match week, Onana against wolves. It’s been the entire season, but it’s been universal.

[@randyburdsal1573]

Rebecca is AWESOME!

[@basedman4290]

The refs are horrendous somebody has to call it out. Thanks Forrest

[@pomrosellc3520]

Jota is an amazing player. I can't believe he isn't a regular starter for Spain.

[@chrisgarty]

Best content of the weekend other than the Liverpool win 🎉

[@dhatroit]

Whew!!! Words for forest lol

[@robertmorici8605]

Tim Howard's teeth look like Ross's in that episode of Friends

[@dudao4163]

So pundits nowadays think they know who do what & when aka team selection better than head coach ? What a bunch of clowns.

[@malefanemalefane5241]

That's what you do as a manager ,you field according to performance not 'name'

[@Rain188]

Why the 30 seconds when she never stick to it?

[@despot666]

I will never stop thinking giving her a timer is an insult. Let the queen speak as long as she wants.

[@jonah2296]

We should address the lack of competence referees shown this year, absolutely. Sides like Wolves and Brentford have significantly been affected by poor decisions. Liverpool could also miss out on the title because of what happened at Spurs. What clubs cannot do is blindly accuse officials of corruption. I mean did you look at the statement 😂. Forest have shown that their constant tantrums are embarrassing and I look forward to them getting relegated. These lot perform poorly on the pitch and rather than fix anything, they’re always crying and pointing fingers. They really lack class. Shouldn’t even talk about sporting integrity for breaching FFP rules.

[@dwaynetomlinson6982]

[@robertc229]

Fancy a referee do you Rebecca. We all know that was absolutely the wrong call. Var proved it . Maybe Rebecca is getting a kickback?

[@thejohngalt]

Rebecca Lowe!

[@liamhattevik5640]

since when is saying a referee is biased crazy? every club, manager, and player has a different relationship with referees. relationships and feelings can create prejudices vs clubs. i like rebecca but im shocked to see no pundits feel mutual about what forrest put out. liverpool has been robbed of 4+ points by VAR decisions. is it crazy to say that club might think some referees favor whoever their opponent is?

[@shpongle7322]

Don’t be a sellout to pgmol Rebecca

[@luismcelaney868]

Wow Lowe usually in agreement but the payment you’ve been given is showing hard after your comments.

[@kanzaki0001]

Referees are humans. Humans can have biases. Not machines like Kawhi Leonard

[@JKkkkdddffrr]

[@robwor8320]

This TV presenters are the true disgrace. Nothing that they are saying is improving the game. Forest have true grievances this season against refs and the refs performance have been disgraceful all season. Why would not they call out the PGMOL if it is threatening their own existence.

[@jimbrentar]

when Son was co-winner of the golden boot WITH NO PENALTIES, he didn't get this kind of support

[@a-walpatches6460]

Wtf are you on about? Yes he did!

[@bryanalexander5662]

Actually agree with this take - he wasn't really a consideration for PFA awards. His biggest optics problem was likely not being seen by some as the best player on his team at the time, even if the stats were impressive that PL season. Assuming Watkins scores a couple more goals and assists each, though, still no comparison to his accomplishment this season - Watkins is PotS this year hands down.
