According to this analysis of VAR decisions for the 22/23 season, Liverpool were the joint second beneficiaries of VAR decisions, while City were bottom.

So why do #LFC fans believe there is a conspiracy against them? Where does that belief stem from?

And of course, you, the only very serious and objective person here knows for a fact that Liverpool and Jürgen Klopp haven't done that and will never do that.

The moment a discussion turns to what you know about what I believe and nothing else, that's the moment when you've just started making things up because you have no point whatsoever.

Thank you for the exchange and have a good weekend.

I’m not sure what you’re talking about - you’re not being very coherent, but maybe it’s just me. You make a lot of sweeping statements based on nothing other than your own feelings, and/or an extremely biased and partisan view based on Liverpool lore, it seems. You say the media should check the data, yet if it were that easy, why don’t they and the clubs do just that? I’d like to see clubs and the media take a look at Tomkins study and expand it out to other teams. It’s terrific work. It’s a huge story and would be a massive scoop for any journalist to get, plus it would be better for football.
