I'm surprised it hasn't been mentioned on here so I'll ask the question.
What the (. ) is up with Kyle Walker and Sky airing that interview where Walker praises the ref Oliver in how he handled the LVC vs City match.
Has anyone ever seen anything like this before?
How is this type of thing even allowed. it just smacks of pure bias and entitlement.

I dunno but I thought his “great” defending got exposed for what it really is - great recovery pace. The actual defending bit got found out multiple times.
{Ed001's Note - I never knew anyone considered him a great defender. I have always read comments about how he is crap just incredibly quick. Even back when he was at Spurs. I can't believe anyone considers him to be a top class defender.}

Apart from Gareth. He seems to rate him.

Ed1, Rio Ferdinand called him the best RB in PL history in his own podcast or whatever online show he did few days ago. Talk about delusional.
{Ed001's Note - Rio is a moron. Great defender in his day, but he is clueless. Walker isn't even the best right-back in Spurs' or City's PL history ffs.}

And Paul Merson, who thinks England are odds-on favourites to win the Euros.
To be fair Merson probably stumbled across a lost cache of personality powder. Southgate doesn’t have that excuse in his locker.

JLC, I think they did the interview to get clicks and reactions from the fans and online likes. And even in the interview, Walker in his body language awhen he was asked about the pen incident, looked so uneasy and tentative and then, the nonsensical praise comes out his mouth. You could tell he himself didn't believe the dust he was spouting.
The fact that anyone ever thought that Walker is a good defender is a problem in it of itself cos that guy is absolutely crap. ot his (and has been getting) his arse handed to him by Diaz and frankly, by any other wide man with the guts to go at him all season and not surprised at all. Take his pace away and trust me, not sure he would even have a career, IMO.

He wasn’t the best right back on Sunday.

I give up with listening to what anyone has to say or at least taking any notice of them. Not one of these pundits is impartial and Sky Sports is owned by Manchester Utd. Yesterday Sky Sports spent all day banging on about Mainoo hopefully being able to play for England. He is nowhere near good enough for that yet and would be back of a long Queue of players. If only there was a channel you could just watch the match and cut out all the pathetic waffle. So Sky own Man Utd and Man City use oil bribes to stay relevant.
As a Liverpool you should really have learnt by now that no one wants us to succeed and any success will be swept under the carpet ASAP so outlets can focus on Man Utd. We as a club are a true case of us against the world something Klopp has had to learn the hard way in many cases but ultimately embrace the hate and turn it back on the haters ten fold.
My advice would be to not take any notice of these agenda driven media outlets as they will try to turn fact into fiction for the purpose of entertainment and viewing figures. Journalism is a dead format in any form in the modern world as it will always be twisted to suit the narrative preferred by the sponsored media agency. Know what you see and believe and ignore all other noise as just that noise. On a side note that Shay Given is a tool isn’t he how does he get on TV anyway he was a tragic player and is an even more tragic human being.

Point taken regarding Walker but Rashford literally just gave up against him so he can't be that bad.
