That's the Ben Arfa goal that was nominated

Aye I saw a Newcastle site say that was the goal nominated.

That was the better of the Ben Arfa supergoals too.

Oh come on, I'm his biggest critic but that was class. The chest/shoulder control then taking it round the keeper was just brilliant skill and composure.

I wasn't that impressed - we defended it really badly having cheaply lost the ball in the first place and once Suarez was one-on-one with a diving Krul, there was only going to be one outcome.

Would've been funny if he'd missed.

I'd say that the force and angle of Colo's boot was always going to contribute for trouble. I'm not sure if he made contact or not but there was always the likelihood he would, and he was never really going to get away with it. Certainly if he definitely touched Suarez I would have had no complaints, but I can't see any potential appeal succeeding in any case.

Suarez's goal wasn't that good - if Coloccini and Steven Taylor had been a bit more awake they would've intercepted it.

Today was good in one respect - we got a point at a ground we normally fall to bits at and a great goal to savour - but pretty bad in another way beyond the fact we failed to hold on.

Colo's red card was pure stupidity (even if Suarez being Suarez made a meal of it), so losing him for 3 games is a pain in the arse to go with the Tiote one we got out of the Tyne-Wear Derby. Throw in injuries to Cabaye, Perch and Ba (the reason all 3 were subbed off before the end) and it gives us a pretty thin squad a further thinning out.

I didn't even think it was a foul but I do love a good strong challenge. By the letter of the law you could argue it was a yellow.

I thought that Sterling has been booked earlier when it turns out he hadn't, but I had assumed he was in line for a booking at least that Gerrard's "C'moooooooon" to the ref saw him get one.

Someone mentioned Sterling kicked out or at least attempted one at Danny Simpson after a free kick and could've been sent off for that, but I missed that one.

Had to be worth a booking at least though. Then again I thought Sterling has been booked earlier, which I swear I heard Quinn saying.

I turned away and saw Colo walking and thought "What the fuck?"

I'm not sure if it was a red card - there's an angle where it looks like Colo makes no contact, and another where he basically stamps him to the floor. But he was asking for trouble going in the way he did. Certainly I'm more aware that Sterling went through Cisse just after half-time, which could also have been a red and probably would've been if it wasn't for Gerrard telling the ref not too.

I'm pretty content with a point given our dreadful record at Anfield, mind

Their goal was horribly defended by us.

Had that free kick just gone in it would've been the jammiest way to lose.

I've heard rumours we're signing Moussa Sissoko and he could be the sort of player we need for a 4-3-3 tactic - certainly more so than Jonas, who only really works if he needs to keep someone like Everton's Baines/Piennar combo quiet.

I think it's easy to interpret Suarez's step on Distin as a red offence. Its touch-and-go really, although his disallowed goal and the manner it was at the end was laughable.

Clattenburg was shite as well, and has certainly given a pretty good game a really poisonous after-taste.

1) He probably isn't, but if he is it's because a lot of money has been spent, they have won one game this season and he hasn't had any experience at this level.
2) He wouldn't.

Fair enough. That's probably why there's pressure now that I think of it, although given the absolute farce Redknapp relegated and then abandoned in 2005, I'd be amazed if he did wind up in the St. Mary's managerial chair.

That was an utterly bizarre match at Stamford Bridge. Certainly not one to help argue the claims Man United are favourably refereed, or that the standard of Premier League refereeing is getting increasingly dreadful.

Can someone explain how Nigel Adkins is already under pressure, and how the media seem to think Harry Redknapp would be interested in the Southampton job?

Fair enough on the Reina-Jones switcharoo. Certainly it's been impressive to see Suso and Sterling's integration.

Suarez's celebration

Even more of a bit much considering it was going wide before it hit Baines on the arse.

It says a lot for Sunderland that even with us having 10 men for an hour and having a lot of favourable refereeing decisions that it took a set-piece and unintentionally poor defending to get them something.

I feel a bit deflated we didn't win after taking the early lead but pretty pleased we avoided defeat.
