Sky aftermatch was like the Anfield wrap we hardly got a mention simple fact is there was only one team trying to win that game in the 2nd half and it wasn't klopp he abandoned his 4 2 4
We missed a pen and liverpool were hanging for a point are the facts

Good point. They changed when we worked it out and sat back for a draw...of course the endless discussion about how unfair our penalty was is more important
 
Pep has consistently said the PL fixtures need changing and calls for 5 subs.

Klopp joins in today and jug ears and MOTD are agreeing with the toothy ****.

It's been proven that recovery time for footballers at this level is a minimum of 72 hours so you can't be asking them to play on Wednesday evening and then again early Saturday afternoon and expect peak performances in both matches. Happened to us last weekend against Sheffield United and to the Rags this week too. Also works the same for Thursday night/Sunday games as well but you don't tend to here too much about that as it's been going on for a while now. But when you throw in the crammed schedule it's ridiculous. 3 international games and one's a friendly coming up now is just beyond a joke.
 
Sky's obsession with what Pep discusses with any manager on the touchline post match is bordering on laughable to the point where they even pose a question to him in the form of an imaginary conversation between both managers.

Des: "Saw you speaking to Jurgen at the final whistle, were you saying fair enough, fair result?"

Pep: "err, no."

Sports Media in this country have to be the worst ever...it is just total utter shite what they write or drone on about.

Rinse and repeat every week, every year.

Total waste of time

Sports coverage in the UK at the moment is saturated with toss "journalists".

A lot of "writers" are very desperate and provide clickbait articles or make outrageous statements in order to draw attention towards their work due to how competitive the industry is. I would much rather listen to the views of match going supporters or ex pros.

I will enjoy my coffee instead x

I like your use of inverted commas. Few of these clickbait merchants are actually trained journalists. They are essentially social media trolls who have found a gap in the market. I actually have no problem with that. It's a free world and they are entitled to make a living. But what pisses me off is when they are given space by outlets like the BBC to promote their biased views with absolutely no challenge. That's where the dishonesty comes in.

The BBC shouldn't be hosting these journalists or "vloggers". BBC sport should focus on providing an accurate and balanced reporting. If they wish to go down the troll route like other media outlets then they can fund this privately.

Dishonestly actually starts at the BBC , it is an utter disgrace of a publicly funded organisation . There are no decent standards set .

Unfortunately the BBC online sports coverage promotes a lot of untrained people who have come up via the fanzine blogging/social media route. They seem incapable of providing impartial coverage. There doesn't seem to be much editorial control which explains why the BBC made so many blunders in its coverage of, for example, City's court battle with UEFA.
