Liverpool thread 2019/20

Absolute masochistic!!! Ha ha.
When I first started posting here someone said I wouldn't last a week. Many agreed. I took it as a challenge. :-D
But seriously, when you ignore/weed out ridiculous suggestions/comments it's not too bad.

It's crazy that England is the only country with a top football League which doesn't try to ease fixture congestion.
Klopp will probably send out the u23s to play the league cup. Should he be fined for that if he wants a full compliment of first team players in Qatar?

Wait a minute.

All clubs and Managers at the start of the season knew what was to come if their team was successful.

That included Klopp.

Liverpool weren’t complaining about a possible fixture pile up this season when they won the CL last season in Madrid.

Klopp knew full well what was waiting for him and his team in December and January this season.

Don’t bull shit like Klopp is doing!

Yes for deliberately sending out a weakened team . It's the rules , even though dippers don't officially recognise such trivialities .

It's tough at the top, or even 2nd to it .

True , but also true to form, he didn't expect to win the CL or beat Arsenal etc . Liverpool are renowned bottlers , so the history books tell us.

FSG and Klopp knew the fixture congestion was comIng. Why didn’t they strengthen the team and squad in the Summer to cope with it?

Either FSG pulled the purse strings, or Liverpool would have failed future FFP after their transfer spend and players wage increase over the last 2 season’s.

Ever since City beat Liverpool on penalties in the League Cup final in 2016 he's thrown every game in the competition (apart from a first hurdle win against Everton which even he dared not do). I'm sure I'm not the only one who wonders whether Klopp sending on an ineligible player as a late sub in the MK Dons tie might have been a deliberate ploy to get Liverpool kicked out of the competition. He's also thrown FA Cup ties too. Remember the ridiculous 3-2 home defeat to relegation bound West Brom who couldn't buy a win at that time and lost their next 9 league and cup games?

No they're exempt due to royalty status .

Klopp isn’t interested in the League Cup or FA Cup.

All he wants is the PL and CL.

FSG only want those cups as well, and the worldwide exposure the World Club tournament, and being possible World Club Champions will bring.

Look at the team we put out on Tuesday. We’ll do the same again at Oxford. Pep and City want to win every cup.

He's got a reputation on Merseyside as a master tactician, so maybe.

Excuse me but he's one of the top 5 managers in the world , and he didn't get there by throwing games surely ?

 

[jrb]

No they're exempt due to royalty status .

True.

The self-proclaimed European Royals don’t want to win tin pot English domestic cups.

They want to win the CL, where they Finnish 4th the season before in their domestic league, lose 3 games, draw 2 games in the CL, and still win a UEFA rigged, fixed, and manipulated part-League, part-knockout, tournament.

I never followed his antics in Germany. ;-)

30 seasons of failure aren't that easy to manage when your a top top club, even though the dippers seem to have no problems. Strange really.

Neither did I but he's so so much much better than Pep who only won all the domestic titles last season . Fucking fraudiola !

This is a fucking very good point.

 

[PannickAtTheDisco]

This is a fucking very good point.

which would be match fixing.

 

[jrb]

I’m expecting him to do the Kloppka before our match against Littlewoods.

He’ll walk on to the pitch like he always does, stand in the centre circle, but this time he’ll face the City Players warming up, and he’ll start doing the Kloppka.

Fist pumping, chest pumping, showing his nashers, and gurning, while running around the centre circle like a demented idiot.

That's absolutely brilliant.

Dippers own version of Jack Nicholson - One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest .

Actually...its European Royalty Status....
Im surprised they are even allowed to still play in Europe after 14 of their fans were convicted of causing the Heysel stadium disaster ,leaving 39 dead and 500 injured...." The darkest hour in the History of Uefa competition "
European Royalty indeed.

 

[jrb]

Here we go.

The question that came to me straight away was.....

How many Liverpool fans did LFC ban for attacking the City coach?

———-

Liverpool have temporarily suspended the fan responsible for the offensive Divock Origi banner displayed at the Champions League match in Genk.

It is understood the supporter has been denied access to any of the Reds matches, home or away, after a meeting of the club's Sanctions Panel.

Any tickets he may have already purchased will be refunded.

It is understood Liverpool's letter has referenced that education will be considered and the club have also been in touch with Kick It Out for advice and support.

—————

Give it a few Weeks and he’ll be back on the KOP.

A tad picky if you don't mind me saying, and anyway they've airbrushed that out of their history.
