Liverpool are detested by the neutrals as much as Utd are.
Everyone's second team ?? Not a chance

How can one have a second team in the same league??? Never understood that. If anything you can have a team from a different league that you like or follow but wouldn't even call those a "a second team".
 
Mark Lawrenson said they are the best team in the country on MOTD2 on Sunday. Since then they have drawn twice at home against mid table teams, scoring once whilst we have won twice away scoring 6. Nice one Lawro !!
 
Has Klippety fucking Klopp tried to claim it wasn't a handball yet? Or is he still yapping about the Mané red card? ****. Delighted to see that fool found out, running round like headless chickens football doesn't work in the long term you prick. Salah keeping the clown in a job and he's playing well above his ability at the moment.
 
So the Best Attack in Europe couldn't score against West Brom.

An interesting stat came up on MOTD tonight. They've actually scored 7 fewer goals than this time last year.
 
I know I'm going against the grain here but I have sympathy with Klopp.

We've seen it all too much, far too much this season. There are teams that want to play football and those that don't. I'm never one to shout down a side for being defensive, but just as against us teams aren't just playing defensively; they're not playing at all.

I'll never pretend to be a fan of that club, heck I can't even call them by name. They have the most self-entitled fans and the club has this really weird cult of personality about it. But I admire the way they play, big time. Philosophically, they're not too different from us. It's just they exercise that philosophy with a different approach. Statistically, they're the only team close to us in terms of both chances created per game and chances conceded per game. With every passing game they're getting closer and closer to the Dortmund side of yesteryear. They attack fantastically, and just like us last season they've been hamstrung by dodgy finishing, and error-strewn defending/goalkeeping.

But imagine how it feels when you work so tirelessly in the week and all season and all last season to create this identity to play football in the way that you really believe in. Something that's good on the eye and good for the sport too.

And then this fat, cynical fucker comes along with a team that doesn't even try to have an identity. A team whose only purpose is to harm the way you play, with no intent to play their own way. A team whose only goal is to somehow fluke it, which is what they got thanks in part to a young forward who we know doesn't need a second invitation to go over (Walker red card). Imagine how that must feel to someone who is as obsessed with good football as Pep is. You think Pep wouldn't have been pissed off too? Sure he was a bit over the top with his reaction, but so he should be. Exactly as Pep was vs Southampton.

I don't like that club. Or their fans. And at the end of the day they still ought to have won, and the blame lies there. But this kind of football we're seeing these shitty teams play is sickening. Again, defensive is one thing. But this is taking the piss.
Everyone is entitled to play football anyway they like.
It's up to Liverpool to break them down.
I don't like Liverpool and I don't like Dortmund, both show disrespect to away supporters, play the same way and the outcome is the same.
I have no sympathy and klopp comes across as a cock in his interviews.
