lighthearted question posed by a Liverpool fan page has sparked a heated response from Everton fans, who couldn’t resist taking a dig at their Merseyside rivals.
The question, which asked who Liverpool’s player of the season has been beside Mo Salah, was met with a cheeky response from an Everton fan, who posted a photo of referee Michael Oliver, VAR, and the penalty spot, accompanied by the words “close call.”
The response was a clear reference to the perceived favourable treatment Liverpool have received from referees and VAR this season, with many Everton fans chiming in to share their own opinions.
One fan quipped, “That’s why we call them LI-VAR-POOL,” while another added, “linesman too.”
A third fan, Ja Pinhead, took it a step further, naming several referees, including Michael Oliver, Anthony Taylor, and Craig Pawson, who they claim have aided Liverpool’s success this season.
The exchange has sparked a lively debate between fans of the two Merseyside clubs, with Liverpool supporters defending their team’s dominance this season and Everton fans insisting that refereeing decisions have played a significant role in the Reds’ success.
