He's highlighted moments from games against Everton, Manchester United and Napoli, among others.
Everton (A) 2-2
— Tom W🔴🔴 (@Valiant_Virgil) October 18, 2020
This speaks for itself. Career ending challenge and absolutely straight red, no arguments whatsoever and confirmed by a number of former Premier League referees. Was David Coote just asleep? pic.twitter.com/7BFHxb1SXG
Everton (A) 2-2

Dominic Calvert Lewin’s foot clearly playing Virgil van Dijk onside in the lead up to that challenge from Pickford. Clear and obvious penalty denied. pic.twitter.com/OfTiYdaE0v
Everton (A) 2-2

THERE IS LITERALLY A GAP BETWEEN THE LINE AND MANÉ’s BODY AND YOU CAN SEE HIS BODY BEHIND THE BLUE LINE DRAWN FOR EVERTON!!! 3rd corrupt decision for the game costing us 2 points. pic.twitter.com/C9AZoi1i3D
Man Utd (A) 1-1
— Tom W🔴🔴 (@Valiant_Virgil) October 18, 2020
Clear foul in the build-up to Man Utd’s only goal. pic.twitter.com/CBv9NI6yhr
Napoli (A) 2-0
— Tom W🔴🔴 (@Valiant_Virgil) October 18, 2020
Blatant dive from Callejon to win a penalty that gave them their 1st goal. pic.twitter.com/FFUXBtFoKp
Villa (A) 2-1
— Tom W🔴🔴 (@Valiant_Virgil) October 18, 2020
We were lucky to not have to pay for the disgusting error in this game but Firmino was adjudged to be ‘offside’ in the lead up to his goal🤷🏼♂️ pic.twitter.com/VzXZgQsiPs
Burnley (H) 1-1
— Tom W🔴🔴 (@Valiant_Virgil) October 18, 2020
Seems like linesmen have something against Liverpool🤷🏼♂️
This ‘offside’ resulted in the free kick that Burnley scored their only goal from. Farce. pic.twitter.com/v0ZNsrM41p
Watford (H) 2-0
— Tom W🔴🔴 (@Valiant_Virgil) October 18, 2020
Fortunate again that this didn’t cost us. Looks like Liverpool is the only team in world football where offsides are given by players arms instead of the parts of the body they’re actually allowed to score with🤷🏼♂️ pic.twitter.com/8NpCwyL4Tt
Leicester (H) 1-1
— Tom W🔴🔴 (@Valiant_Virgil) October 18, 2020
Clear and obvious penalty denied for Naby Keita as we dropped 2 points because of a disgraceful refereeing error. We lost the league by 1 point. pic.twitter.com/Ffo3ZLfjYN
Southampton (A) 3-1
— Tom W🔴🔴 (@Valiant_Virgil) October 18, 2020
Speaking of Naby Keita being denied blatantly obvious pens... pic.twitter.com/pEHLptx1LN
Man Utd (H) 2-0
— Tom W🔴🔴 (@Valiant_Virgil) October 18, 2020
Brilliant goal from Firmino ruled out because De Gea was incapable of catching a ball. No words. pic.twitter.com/soke10Rr26
Liverpool were on the wrong end of another controversial VAR call when it failed to check for Sheffield United's penalty on Saturday.
Fabinho was adjudged to have fouled Oli McBurnie.
The Premier League have since confirmed that VAR did not check whether or not Fabinho's challenge on McBurnie was a foul, but just if it was inside or outside of the box.
Though the Reds went onto win the league meeting 2-1 thanks to goals from Roberto Firmino and Diogo Jota.
