Liverpool thread 2017/18

[schfc6]

So you remove 2 of your games where you conceded the most? Perhaps we can do that also with 2 of our off games (such as Liverpool away) and our defence once again becomes better.

I think you may also spot some weaknesses in your defence when you come up against better teams in the CL. After all you have already let in 8 against us this season in 2 games.

& 6 to Spurs, should have been 7.

Which is down to the superior midfield of Manchester City. Thank you for proving my point.

Don't forget back 4, keeper and forwards too. Our forwards score near e Rey game, they don't come up short time & time again against packed defences.

This comparison is stupid. How many trophies Pep would have won if he started his career at the second Bundesliga devision with Mainz 05 and went to the then almost broke club BVB? Sorry, but are you serious? Where would Pep be without being able to outspend every other manager in the league and already having players like De Bruyne and Sterling? So please stop this nonsense.

Fact remains: Klopp always had the inferior funds and inferior team an still managed to have a positive track record against Pep. You can not talk this away. Where was Peps superiority when his Bayern side got spanked by Madrid and Barcelona? Where was Peps superiority when he got beaten by Monaco last season over two legs? Pep without having the clearly better player is not very good it seems.

Pep proved himself at Barca B, not to dissimilar to Klopp proving himself at Mainz. The Barca board then took a gamble on Pep and appointed him as the Barca manager, ignoring the likes of Mourinho for the job. In his first season, he transformed an underperforming Barca side to one of the best club teams ever assembled, pioneering a type of football that dozens of managers have tried to copy ever since. Pep gets the top jobs because he’s a fantastic manager, he’s not going to take a job at Burton Albion just so he can prove to people he can do it, what manager has ever done that in the modern era, or ever? Put it this way, there probably isn’t many owners in world football that wouldn’t pick Pep to be their manager if they had the pick of any managers in world football today. Fair enough, he’s been knocked out the champions league by other good teams, what manager hasn’t? Where was Klopp when he got beat in the league cup final by a shite City side managed by Pellegrini? Where was Klopp when they got knocked out the FA Cup to Wolves last season and West Brom this season?

Klopp has still got a lot to prove in the game, Peps done it all.

I had not realised he was a troll. Sorry. I may have encouraged him on the United thread.

 

[goalmole]

Because they're the only team this season to have beaten City in a live rubber. Some wariness is sensible.

That win might be their undoing if we get them in the CL, I'm sure Pep and the team will have picked the bones out of that defeat.

 

[goalmole]

Maybe you are confusing Bluemoon for Rawk....very few fans are thinking we will will all four as we have won nothing yet.
Will celebrate if we win trophies as and when it happens.
Judging by your post counts I think I probably read Bluemoon more than you...have a nice day.

There's a lot not yet convinced that we'll win the league, never mind the quadruple.

Another Romford dipper?

Nah
That’s some cheap analysis. Trying to be objective here. Clearly there is something promising there & they’ll only strengthen in the summer.

Underlying performances are a thing, just ask Pep. Scoreboard journalism is the lamest shit.

Know we are not allowed to shout but , what a load of BOLLOCKS

They've been knocked out of both domestic cups and are 18 points adrift of us. All the top 6 teams will strengthen in the summer. I don't see why they will be a greater threat than any of the other 5 in the chasing pack

Sure, I’m not saying they’re as good as us, clearly. But they look very well enroute to finishing second since they only have 2 games left vs the top 6 & are in good form. The important thing, is that Liverpool have a world-class front three who can score against anyone. Plus, they’re young & in their prime. Their problems really stem from their shit GK’s, poor defensive traditions & their shoddy DM/CM’s.

If they can fix that, I think they’d probably be the best shot at top three compared to the rest of the pack imo.

So they are in good form, Swansea and West Brom beat them in the last few weeks, and they.have a brilliant attack just need a new goalie a couple of defenders and 2 defensive midfielders.FFS.

Yes, that occurred to me too,but you try telling the giddy ones that!

 

[JULES]

I love rawk...

Give us Madrid in the next round - anyone who’s seen them play this season knows that if there is a team out there optimised to take them down, no, not just take them down but beat them senseless, it’s Jürgen Klopp’s Liverpool.

Everyone, other than us, has been on the bad end of multiple losses this season. But Liverpool have only lost three times, the least out of everyone else & have scored the most.

Last season we finished 15 points behind the leaders and even lost 4 0 to a certain blue Merseyside outfit at one point. However it was clear to see that we were onto something. We were in a similar-ish position to Klopp's side are now. You should know your statement on this team is very sensible, but you already knew that.

Bring on Madrid! Cos they have been tearing up the European elite this season ! Maribor, Porto, Spartak, they even struggled with a poor Sevilla. Deluded idiots.

The media appear to be making a comparison between the Dippers front three Mane,Salah and Firminio and Aguero,Sane and Sterling and some of the pundits are intimating that the Dippers players are superior and to be fair if someone asked me to swap i would certainly consider it , all six of these players are very good . But the difference between us and the Dippers is that their midfield is SHIT their defence is SHIT and their goalkeepers are SHIT and our manager is on a different planet from Klopp , and thats why we are 20 points clear of them. Anyone thinking that the Dippers are capable of winning Big Ears are dreaming , because a decent and organised team like Bayern,Barca or Real will rip them to pieces.

 

[kaz7]

funny how the fab 3 have scored a lot less goals than us but pundits think they are better lol
