Tee hee...


We have an iffy back line?

We have only let 3 more goals in than Arsenal we are solid at the back, I'm sure some of these pundits don't watch the game and I am surprised by this channel because Burley and Nichol are usually very good IMHO.

I posted something in a similar vein the other day, Mex.

It’s an old, tired cliché to say that our defence is suspect.
 
Just a word of caution about getting giddy about Wirtz. It took David until Christmas to get used to the pace and physicality of the PL. There is a player in there, somewhere.

Anyway, enough of that - let's gloat.
The league was different then now there is far more tactical better managers

Merlin scored his first goal for us, against Blackpool, on 17th October.

That is generally accepted as the day his Premier League career took off.

Wurst is still struggling two weeks further into the season.
 
There were 22 teams in the First Division in those days, therefore, four more games for each club, so losing five of the first 11 had less impact on the overall season.
Yes, good point mate. I think they can only afford to lose a couple more tops between now and the end of the season to stand any kind of chance
 
They shouldn't be written off. Liverpool were poor in the first half of 21/22 but then won 51 from 57 points in the 2nd half of the season and we needed wonders from Gundo to win the title.

We are better, though :)
21/22 was essentially a two horse race though. The PL is better than ever these days. If Brentford catch you on a bad day at the Gtech, you’ll be lucky to get out of there with a point. Even the newly promoted teams aren’t slouches

The worst bit about Wirtz is that he only looks get against foreign teams. He’s got something he just can’t utilise it in the PL
 
I’m sure the pundits and mainstream media will be falling over themselves to applaud Liverpool’s “brilliant rebuild,” spending a casual £500–600 million in just six months. You’ll hear all the usual buzzwords — smart recruitment, strategic investment, backing the manager, and of course, a statement of intent. They’ll romanticize it, talk about how Liverpool and Slot are “building another dynasty,” and how it’s all part of some genius long-term vision.


But when City spends even half of that — suddenly, it’s financial doping, sportswashing, and ruining football. Pep goes from being a tactical master to a so-called chequebook manager overnight. Funny how that works, isn’t it? One club “invests wisely,” the other “buys success.” The hypocrisy is almost impressive. If only double standards were a trophy, the media would have Liverpool lifting it every season.

@jimharri Semenyo clearly did not feel racial abused, he looks to be headed there. Can we blame it on Stockholm syndrome?


In no way is putting an offer in, in November, tapping up though. No destabilising here.

I detest these "Bus Wrecking" twats equally on a par with the Rags. That result yesterday just before the International break has done me no power of good.

On the whole an excellent weekend and well done Jeremy Doku that was a performance of the very highest caliber.

This is so true, it was even peddled out in 2018-19 when we had one of the best recorded defences in premier league history, think we conceded 22 or 23 goals, can’t be arsed checking. I remember correcting workmates constantly when they came out of this shite just because it was all so called pundits could come up with.
