First thing he's got right in years.
Looks like session hell.
He looks off his tits there
Not a good look for him. Could be some pretty serious repercussions for that. Hard to tell when it was filmed but surely when Klopp was still in charge, and not sure they'd social distance joke if it wasn't around Covid times. Maybe 2021?
So somehow, despite Cootes being the ref who wrongfully gave a penalty against us, then wrongfully refused Villa a penalty against Liverpool, Liverpool are going to come out of this as the victim 
He looks off his head.
He's had an absolute stinker there
I really shouldn't laugh. Someone's taken advantage of him whilst he's clearly off his head. Still can't do it though can you.

I don’t see the issue.
As an official you can't be seen to be in a position of bias.
Perfect timing, just 2 days after he denied Villa 2 penalties at Anfield.
Excellent stuff.
Excellent stuff.
Everyone hates scousers though.
Yep. I don't think he genuinely lets his bias get in the way of making decisions, but this video means pretty much every 50/50 decision he makes going forward open to question.
Especially given his history, he was responsible for the VVD/Pickford incident as well as the Odegaard handball...
Yep. Jurgen Klopp is a cnut, and was a particularly big cnut to 4th officials.
Shouldn't have to face any punishment for a factually correct statement.
Annul them. Award Villa the win in the interest of fairness
Ironic how this comes out now considering Coote didn't give a penalty for Villa on Sunday
He game more in favour of Liverpool that game.
Or if that really is him, just sack him for being an idiot.
He’s finished. It’s over
Of course he’ll get sacked.
Agreed with everything. Promote that man!
Wonder what he had been taking?

All the scousers on Twitter acting like an injustice has been done. Feck off
Yep no way he isn’t sacked.
PGMOL should let them print the t shirts and have the vigil first before they make any serious decisions.
Couldn't deprive them of that at least.
Imagine the stuff he said off camera!!!
I'm sure he will have a nice career in Saudi.

Brazy

Massive online focus on him waving through the foul on Salah when Nunez scored the opener as confirmation of his bias. Haven't seen it mentioned anywhere but here he denied Villa at least one very clear penalty, probably one.
Liverpool the victims in this one.
Liverpool the victims in this one.
The two stonewallers not given to Villa will be glossed over and it'll all be how the Dippers are the injured party in all this.
True. They should have been putting their efforts into making Klopp less of a cnut, as opposed to silencing a man for telling it as it is.
He's right though, Klippy is a cnut
They could have been killed!
Not like Liverpool needed any extra help in the league this year but now every ref will be walking on eggshells in their games. Give a decision against them and they will delve into your life to ruin you.
Him thinking Klopp is a cnut is fine, referees are human and naturally there will be managers and players who they can't stand and others that they like but while you're employed, don't go saying that to strangers, let alone on camera. Saying it on camera and calling him a German cnut on camera is while still employed is pretty crazy though. Him looking like he's high as a kite probably doesn't help with his decision making.
The twist is the cameraman is Michael Oliver.
