SEAN DYCHE rarely stopped waving his arms as his bright white shirt stood out on the Anfield touchline for 90 minutes.
But this was a game he will argue was decided by the colour yellow.
The Everton boss (inset) will bemoan the decisions to send off Ashley Young and keep Ibrahima Konate on the pitch.
Dyche's arms were directing every move forward and back by his Toffees squad but when referee Craig Pawson put the whistle to his mouth they were flailing about like he was a mad man.
There can be little complaint about Young's dismissal. His first booking stopped a counter, the second was the lunge of a 38-year-old full-back who earlier in his career may have got the ball and not Luis Diaz.
But where Dyche can cry foul is the lack of consistency. Because later in the game Konate - who was already on a yellow clipped Beto and stopped an Everton counter.
