Oh dear gdm. I think you are forgetting it's that time of year when every player at Liverpool is the best in the world in their respective positions.
I don’t care if they sign baby Jesus, they ain’t gonna finish above City. I can see us going up another gear next season..the tramps are rumoured to going for Barella when Fabinho and Henderson leave, would not be too happy with that after them signing Mac Allister and Szo
It's nothing to do with management, it's a seasonal delusion that if it were based on reality would mean Liverpool would now have 30 PL titles instead of just the 1. It reminds us all that the school holidays are here and after last year's bubble of delusion was burst, the new one is now fully inflated.I can get behind that. Saying that, they supposedly had the best players and manager for 2 seasons running, and we beat them to the title twice with a false 9 formation. Their fans and the Liverpool loving media are fully aligned in their delusion.
Pep can turn water into wine. That's why I'm confident he could improve Trent's all round game. Klopp is nowhere near his level.
His total assist stats are impressive but he had 9 assists in the Premier League last season which is great for a full back but when you look at the bigger picture it’s not so impressive.He is one of the best passers in world football. This opinion is backed up by the fact he's broken the assists record from full back position. You can't be a terrible passer of the ball if you're creating that many chances/goals from defence, surely?
An assist is the pass that creates the goal, and he's got a record breaking number of them (54 assists in 198 prem games). You don't actually think he's just whacking it in the box with no target to aim for? You can't get lucky 54 times.
3 of those assists were for City.lol.His total assist stats are impressive but he had 9 assists in the Premier League last season which is great for a full back but when you look at the bigger picture it’s not so impressive.
Those 9 assists came from 252 crosses and 26 through balls which means that one in every 31 attempts by him resulted in a goal.
By comparison KDB had 16 assists from 226 crosses and 28 through balls or a one in 14 success rate.
A fairer reflection would be he created 25 big chances although that can be subjective. It’s still just under 9% of his total attempts.
His passing, when successful can be impressive but unfortunately his completed passing rate is not as good as we are led to believe. He made 2309 passes in the Premier League last year and only 78.69% were completed. In other words 492 of his passes failed to find a target which averages out at just over 13 times per game played.
Rodri made over 600 more passes than TAA with a passing accuracy of 91.27%, John Stones has a passing accuracy of 93.25% in fact most of our team have better passing stats than young Mr Arnold.
If you cross to the other side of the pitch Andy Robertson had 8 assists with far fewer crosses and through balls, his passing accuracy was much better at 84% and he’s by far a more accomplished defender.
I think these stats show that rather than TAA being one of the best he’s just a player that has more attempts than anyone else and occasionally the spectacular comes off.
Arsenal, Newcastle and Spurs.Nonsense. Who are the 3 other teams finishing above them?
What a shite midfield you have tonight. Tube.Who says thats the default Arsenal midfield? Arteta could just as easily go Partey, Rice, Odegaard
I don't watch as much non city games as I used to, but when I watch a livarpool game, one of the main things I notice is that when taa receives the ball out wide on the touchline, he switches it on to his right foot and hits a 40/50 yard ball which invariably results in them losing possession. Would love a stato to come up with the numbers but I'd bet that he has an incredibly low pass completion on any pass attempt over 20 yardsHis total assist stats are impressive but he had 9 assists in the Premier League last season which is great for a full back but when you look at the bigger picture it’s not so impressive.

I'll bet you £500.Arsenal, Newcastle and Spurs.

Billy big balls, you want even money on an 8/15 chance?I'll bet you £500.
I'll take anything. I'm 99% confident.Billy big balls, you want even money on an 8/15 chance?
Stones form did dip when he was having some personal problems tbf and Grealish was slated by some for over a season as he wasn't fitting in when he first came. (£100m what a waste of money etc)I think he means when Foden had an appendectomy.
Foden has had a 6 month period where he was utter dog shit. Stones was nearly leaving us for Arsenal a few seasons ago. Players go through bad patches.Stones form did dip when he was having some personal problems tbf and Grealish was slated by some for over a season as he wasn't fitting in when he first came.

As for Foden I think you are correct, although something went on when he was knocking about with that rag greenwood.

I'll get absolutely roasted for this opinion but I actually think Darwin Nunez is a quality player, and he will get better over the next season. I can't see him being another Timo Werner. He misses a fuck tonne of chances, but when those chances start going in he's a 25 goal a season man. Was a bit unfair he was compared to Haaland last season. Haaland is a freak.
You need to put the crack pipe down. Fodens stats were incredible considering the injuries he had. He started the season on fire but returned from the World Cup injured, tries to play through it for 3or4 gsmes but realised he needed treatment. Came back on fire again only to then need an appendectomy, that would have been curtains for most but he still returned on form.
Now don’t get me started on Nunez, fvk me he was wank & Klopp gave up on him. He was compared with Haaland cos he cost nearly £90m.
Spot on! You just look at who post this rubbish and you just think yep that poster!
