Liverpool (N) | Community Shield | Post-Match

[herrock]

So there we have it, after one final warm up game, Nunes is better than Haaland, Cancelo is dreadful, we shouldn't have sold Sterling or Jesus and Klopp is better than Pep.
What a dreadful season we are in for...again

 

[DMA's]

am i overthinking this or does pep genuinely have a mental block when it comes to facing flopp?

Don’t think it’s a mental block but as they say in boxing styles make fights.

Liverpools strengths perfectly exploit our weaknesses, now with Thiago they are able to play through our press better and more efficiently and with salah and Diaz out wide they can counter extremely well. Klopps style of football is basically kryptonite to peps possession based game

Mental block. It's the other way around, Liverpool keep losing the title too us, they celebrated that win yesterday as if the had won the world Cup.

Credit where credit is due. Thiago was fantastic yesterday

Let’s be honest, on a one to one basis the scousers will beat us 9 times out of 10. They have more belief and more desire. Man for man our team is better but I can’t ever see us getting any better against them. We’re clearly scared and in awe of them. They run us ragged. And anyone who doesn’t see that is deluded. Ignore all this pre season bullshit excuses, as a team their spirit is far better than ours.

Fucking moron.

Between mins 25-80 I thought we were the better team despite clearly being rusty.

But seriously how fucking small time are the dippers?

- Booing the national anthem
- Throwing multiple flares on the pitch
- Fans getting on the pitch for Nunez goal
- Nunez and team celebrating as if they'd won the CL final rather than a glorified pre season friendly.

Credit must go to Klopp. NO I don't like him, im not a closet ''micky'' but he knows how to exploit us...no CDM for us today..he made his team exploit that..fair play. But he does always find a way tbf

He sure does...I mean look how many Premier League titles he's won ..it's a massive 1 compared to Peps paltry 4 ...

Their H2H record in the PL is in Pep's favour. When was Liverpool's last win in the league? Nearly 3 years ago. And it came after scandalous officiating (that 3:1 game at Anfield).

 

[gordondaviesmoustache]

4 titles out of 5 too isn't too shabby.

Given the way we won the league in 2019 and 2022, anyone questioning the mental fortitude or desire to win of this group of players is an idiot.

We just need to adjust to Haaland and Alvarez in our team now . Couple of times Kdb pulled the ball behind Haaland instead of where Erling wanted it in front of him . It's just a recalibration of where we put the final ball . We don't need Erling doing fancy step overs etc, we have players that can do that in their sleep, but what we need is those players delivering the type of final ball that a born striker wants and needs . Erling said it to Jack last week in the tunnel ! He wants those balls going across the box at pace or delivered in front of him . We will be fine we just have to adapt to a goalscorer that's not what we are used to.

Anyone got a pic or video of the handball that wasn't even looked at?

On page 58, Blueknows has put a video.

You have won the prize for the biggest pile of shit post on bluemoon by a country mile.
I'm sure rawk will be very happy with your contribution

 

[Thornliebank]

Are they having an open top bus parade down the Strand today ?

 

[madloaf]

Just looking back at the match day thread for Leicester Comm Shield last year. "FFSMahrez so slow" , "players undercooked" , "poor finishing". Add to that a penalty against us and we're venturing into Groundhog day territory.

It is definitely a trophy, it’s recognised by UEFA as a legitimate trophy and every single club in Europe counts it or their equivalent in their honours lists.

That’s why we were the “Fourmidables” in 2018-19, because we are the only football team in English football history to win all four domestic trophies in one season.

Fans only say it’s not a trophy when they don’t win it. We were all laughing at Liverpool fans saying exactly that in 2019.

And why we didn’t see Josh at left back pep thinks it’s a proper trophy and so do I..

The work rate and intensity of Liverpool was of the scale, saying that we had good opportunities to win the game when we looked well of it fitness wise intensity wise! It’s going to be the same next few premier games we just not match fit!

Klopp does it differently he doesn’t give a shit about his players resting he slogs them from first preseason game to the last game of the season and they seem always energy wise intensity wise on it..

Pep way is more about respecting the players and why we give our players more time than most to come back from an injury..

 

[laplandblue]

Far more of a penalty than what the dippers got...Surprise Surprise

They were in four finals because of favourable refereeing, same game changing decisions in their favour in those finals. Thankfully against Real Madrid these unsurprising decisions didn't change the game in their favour.

 

[waspish]

Fitness still looks an issue which is a concern and when Kev and Joao are bad they are BAD! Really needed that LB situation sorted sooner though, and wouldn’t mind another wide player but that’s obviously not going to happen. Also we just can’t beat them fuckers in a one off game can we!?

Pep should played Josh at left back for me if he thinks he is good enough against Bayern and he did well he should be playing him yesterday or probably he thinks our main players need the games to get up to speed!?

 

[Sir peace frog]
