Shearer slams VAR; Neville makes 'lucky' Liverpool claim after 'below-par' performance vs Everton

Alan Shearer as well as Gary Neville reckon Liverpool defender Ibrahima Konate was privileged not to be sent out off throughout Saturday’s Merseyside derby at Anfield.

The Reds were much from their biggest versus Merseyside rivals Everton on Saturday mid-day as they laboured to a 2-0 victory.

Ashley Young was uncrowned before fifty percent-time for 2 bookings as well as a late prove from Mo Salah solved the gallery in Liverpool’s favour.

Liverpool are now 3rd in the Premier League as well as they are merely a single juncture adrift of Manchester Metropolis as well as Medley, who are currently joint-peak of the table.

Jurgen Klopp’s side were privileged to expire the gallery wearing eleven mens as Konate have to have been sent out off throughout the 2nd fifty percent.

Having currently been booked, the centre-earlier channelled down Beto to avert Everton from breaching away on the counter-attack. This was merely a bookable offence yet umpire Craig Pawson discerned not to authenticate him a 2nd yellow card.

Klopp admitted concoct-upward-suit that Liverpool – who have currently won ten parts from behind in the Premier League this period – “were privileged” wearing the Konate wreck yet Everton will most clearly be able to “lug out make thieve advantage of of over it”.

“Of training course, we are privileged probably wearing Ibou that he didn’t lug out make thieve advantage of of a 2nd yellow,” Klopp briefed TNT Sporting activities.

“Of training course I recognize. You have to accept that, in the minute it’s actually intricate to lug out that, yet in time, you lug out make thieve advantage of of over it, I can inform you.”

Neville cases the 2-0 win is a “comprehensive expire result for Liverpool” as they “weren’t at their biggest” versus Everton.

“I primarily mistrusted Liverpool were below-par, they weren’t at their biggest,” Neville claimed wearing his Sky Sporting activities podcast.

“They were helped by the sending out off, evidently. Ashley Young no vacillation around that yet I reckon they did nicely wearing 10 mens.

“I reckon Konate was privileged. I disclaimed at 1-0. So, I saw the penalty wearing Michael Keane, after that evidently Salah scored it. It’s a comprehensive expire result for Liverpool.

“I worn’t reckon Everton will most clearly be too downbeat, there will most clearly be some positives came out of it, I’ve witnessed them play also worse.”

Shearer meanwhile theorizes Konate was “inadequately privileged” to shun being sent out off as well as Klopp “knew that” in the minute.

“Konate receives his initially yellow card, an entirely right determination, he recognizes selectively what he’s channelling out, a yellow card,” Shearer claimed on Fit of the Day.

“But after that, come on, what’s the dispute to [James] Tarkowski? You can explore he wipes him out, inadequately, inadequately privileged.

“[Jurgen] Klopp knew that since he took him off openly, or else he would most clearly’ve been sent out off.”
