Arteta seems to like a target man up there to hold the ball up at times, so I think it far more likely that a taller, older player will play there.

My guess is Merino as he’s scored a few headers for Spain and is a physical presence.

When no physical presence needed, it’ll be Trossard or Martinelli.

We'll literally be Stoke.

Just need a long thrower.

Get a bid in for Ola Aina at Forest and then job done.

 

[M16 citeh]

Guessing you’ll play Rice or Merino as your target/false 9 forward?

I feel like a target false 9 sums up arteta haha

Full back FC ole ole

The striker for hire thing reminds me of Jon Stark in one of the 70’s/80’s comics £1000 for the win and £250 a goal pretty sure he’s hung up his boots mind.

That scruffy sweaty **** from Bludfam tv has now got a spot on SSN.

FFS.

 

[Stoned Rose]

Havertz out for rest of season with torn hamstring. Sterling and Trossard up front coming to a shitshow near you soon.

Sad news for Kai. 15 goals in what 33 games is a good tally for someone who by far is not a proper striker.

As for the club deciding not to get a striker in during the January window. You fucking bunch of absolute grade A morons.

Another post full of excuses from our resident excuse monster.

Eh. Not sure I've made any excuses. Dippers are the best team this season and BTW with their current points projection of 94 points on current pacing they'd have won the league each season for the last 4 seasons and 5 seasons ago they won it with 99 points. So they're better than us but they're also better points wise than you've been for the last 5 seasons too. This Liverpool side is therefore better than any City side since the Centurions from a League perspective so it's not as if we'd kept up our level from last season that we'd have won it.

18/19 we got 98 points.

My guess is that Liverpool won’t break 90 points this season if they go deep in the CL and win the league early.

Extrapolating 14 games before the season ends to try and prove a non-existent point is about your intellectual level.

Secondly, it’s nonsense to compare seasons on a point to point basis. Every season is different and are therefore not suitable for like for like comparison.

You got the bit about the dippers being better than Arsenal right though so well done on that bit.

Further, you’re 7 points behind with 42 points to play for why are you throwing the towel in?

That's because they have no real opposition this year. We're in a mess and you lot shit yourselves everytime.

Be interesting to see how you get on without him. Do you have no strikers at all at youth level?

They literally have the best teams the PL has ever had in terms of average ability. Like aside from the bottom 3 every other side is a really tough game.

The best one went to the Rags. We'll find a way - Saka will be back hopefully in 6 weeks or so and apparently Calafiori was a striker at youth level. It's not like we've suffered a season ending injury to prime Shearer.

Projections ??..is that all you can come up with ?
I feel your pain. It must be very excruciating coming second to us 2 years in a row.
You’ll be ok.
Be humble ehh.

Liverpool are cruising because they are a good, well managed, and consistent side with no actual opposition.
They are not spectacular by any means, and not as good as klopps best sides. Worthy title winners this year though and the benchmark for the rest of 'the big14' as it now is to aspire to next season.

Watched him against us last week. He’s a big lad and not much else.
