Liverpool thread 2019/20

You had a 10 pt lead and finished 2nd,what would you call that? the points we both ended up with is not relevant

It was only 10 points after playing more games

You sound like the BBC who speak of leads opening and closing on an hourly basis depending on kick off times

Not only is it tainted mate they’ve not had a single stand out moment of drama or proven when the chips are really down they can overcome the odds. In 2012 we had VKs header at home against Utd even before the Aguero moment. In 2014 we chased down a lead and they bottled it under pressure. They bottled it last year when the pressure was on. Even this year they don’t have any stand out moments bar those given by VAR. no VK vs Leicester. They’ve not had a challenge this year the standard of the top 5 is very poor in terms of consistency. They will win it but what will the highlights or defining moments be? Beating us because VAR allowed it? They still can’t out score us even with the best front three in the world

Their defining moment will probably be winning it at The Etihad. That’s all the media will need to create drama from it. Dethroning the champions at the home of the champions.

Fixed that for you.

Great first post, well thought out and gives a good contribution to the discussion. Welcome to the forum, I am sure you will be here a long time.

Cannot agree we bottled it last year. 1 loss in league, finished 1 point behind City who had and I hope I am correct 2nd highest points (98) only beaten by City (100). We were narrowly beaten by the better side, to say we bottled it is not correct.

You were 7 points clear in Jan with game in hand.

The very definition of bottling it....

How come they get another day's rest this week - their fixture against Wolves is on Thursday whereas all the rest play either Tuesday or Wednesday. (According to the Fixture List on ESPN)

All you get from the BBC and SKY was how liverpool were pipped by 1 point from winning it last year , reality is they gained 15 points from penalties alone not including off sides , City meanwhile lost 3 points through penalties and the FA still fucked up
