[🟢] NEW: Leipzig value Diomande at €100m.
It stands to reason that Richard Hughes would try to chip away at that fee and the use of Harvey Elliott as part of a swap deal has been mooted.

Aged 34 years and 320 days, Virgil van Dijk is the second-oldest outfield player in Liverpool's history to play 100% of possible minutes in a league season, behind only Tommy Lucas in 1930-31 (35y 224d). #LFC
@DaleJohnsonBBC@kirkdwilliams It comes down to if you believe hes deliberately controlled the ball with his arm. With the laws of the game the way they are now thats the only reason you can disallow the goal.
Arms aren't in an unnatural position so its all on intent.
Can't say its deliberate. so its a goal
If Bryan Mbeumo was a defender there's no way his handball would be considered a penalty.
So why should it lead to a disallowed goal?
Put simply, football has different expectations for attackers. But it can't even make its mind up.

@Johnny__MUFC@nikstorey_@AdamCrafton_@GNev2 Whos they?
The VAR & AVAR both agreed it was a clear error.
Also the position of the arm becomes null and void when the arm then deliberately controls the ball. Deliberate handball is an offence regardless of the position of the arm.
Neville’s logic here is if that’s a defender in his own box potentially giving away a penalty you let it run, but if it’s an attacker in the lead up to a goal (not the goalscorer) you have to rule it out
Why?
@TheAnfieldBuzz Give it a rest. He's been dogshit all season. Hes one of the main culprits for taking the tempo of the games down and doing stupid flicks and turns in his own half.
Curtis Jones: “I want to be the captain of Liverpool and stay here all my life. I’d like to be remembered like Steven Gerrard.”
We cannot let him go. 🔴💪
