It's a funny thing, isn't it? According to the BBC, Liverpool “thrashed” Spurs. They beat them, convincingly, 4-2. They did not thrash them. A two-goal margin is not a thrashing, of anyone, by anyone.
I don't know if Liverpool get reffed differently. But they definitely get covered differently. There's just no question about it.
I bet the BBC, didn't say that, when Everton beat them by 2 goals a fortnight ago.
 
I’ve not been studying the language used in great detail.

But Klopp has just used the word ‘retirement’ in an interview on the wireless.

Has that previously being acknowledged? I was assuming he’d be off to another club after a rest maybe.
Seems to be cloaked in mystery.

Yeah, my hubby worked that out today and then burst out laughing. Even he knows it's fucking ludicrous and won't happen in a month of Sundays, God love him.

It’s the hope that kills.

He should concentrate on creating his Klopp leaving playlist and which candles he should use. :-)
 
His last game is going to be fucking nauseating! I reckon he’ll be bawling his eyes out crowd aswell. Sky will be doing montages with sad music. There’ll be ex players coming on the pitch after the game like a shite episode of this is your life. It’s going to be mental!
Those cheeky scouse chappies will give him a good send off during the last game by robbing his gaff and shitting in his bed.

Bit far fetched. Spurs only scored two late goals but were outplayed the same way we outplayed the rags and led 6-1 only to concede two soft ones in the end to make the scoreline more acceptable for that lot.

However I definitely do agree Liverpool gets a different coverage in the media. So are we. Despite it being the complete opposite.
Klopps’ goodbye will get a lot more attention than the one who wins the league that day. If it’s a last day title decider that is. Even more-so if WE win it.
 


Gal Gadot might sleep with me if she were to leave her husband, somehow get stranded in the same place as me on the day its the end of the world and she was utterly desperate for a shag before the world ends and I was the only option available. Even then, she would probably find something knob shaped and just make me close my eyes and face the wall with a semi on, trying to catch a sound wave.

Let them dream!

Well, you may or may not be convinced by the specific example I've cited. (My general point I stand by, and you seem to agree with it). Fair enough.
I'm not in a strong position, because I didn't see the match. What I can say is that on the beeb itself's feed, it clearly said that the crowd got very nervous, and that Tottenham were definitely looking the more threatening team. I can only go by the judgement of the commentator. Certainly, Tottenham were being thrashed for much of the match, apparently. Incidentally, I was at the 6-3 match, and believe me, no-one around me got nervous. Irritated, yes, at the sloppiness of it.
I made this point only the other day: you will regularly find in the media a disjunction between what a commentator says, and what a maybe rather lazy sub-editor chooses as a sound-bite, or read-bite, title for the piece that rounds up the match. I emphatically do not believe that all journalists and commentators are in league to big up Liverpool and do the dirt on City. I just think it happens at a higher level. And that it's partly the result of unthinking laziness.
Anyway, it's a detail in the grand scheme of things, but it's one that ends up getting on my tits by virtue of repetition. It's sort of like lazy journo clichés like “the magic of European nights under the Anfield lights”, etc., that become true to the general public because they're repeated so often.

The cult on X/Twitter are going on about it, saying it’s because of the online abuse he is getting from Liverpool fans.

Anither Liverpool player is abused by Liverpool fans. The death threats will be coming soon.

Hope his garden has a hedge and not a wall.
