We are the best behaved team all around and the Ref gets it easy from our players. Other teams act poorly and with disdain to the point of embarrassment. Our players know the agenda and deal with it accordingly by winning football matches. It is really only our fans who moan and whine still for days afterwards when the players forget the way they were wronged as soon as the final whistle is blown.

Im sure Diaz and co just forgot about losing to Spurs by abominable officiating as soon as the match was over. Im sure Curtis Jones was very philosophical about being red-carded for next to nothing. And when VVD was poleaxed by Pickford he probably lay in his hospital bed and thought ‘ah well, these things happen’.
Players and managers get fined for criticising refereeing decisions. Just because they are not verbalising their dissatisfaction in public, it doesn't mean the players ‘forget the way they were wronged as soon as the final whistle is blown’. The team’s conduct on the pitch is far better than most - especially the Manchester teams - but you can't tell me they don't throw their boots at the changing room wall and post their complaints anonymously online.

Im not sure about the facts around this lol but I’d be on board if you’re saying we’re the least complainery ???
Also didn’t Klopp get yellow carded last game for dissent!?

Us fans make up for the perceived lack of complaining from the players!
Let them to the talking on the field and we'll do the talking off the field

@NBG, I beg to differ - what did VVD (the club captain) get sent off for earlier this season? Not sure what the point you are trying to is.

I think that was a massive learning curve from virg the sending off and I think he’s better from it . He’s been impeccable since.
