Praying to be like City, bless ‘em

Might as well be Celtic (we didn't realise this guy was actually on to something) ;-)

Have they arrested anyone yet for the coach attack?

I'm not sure it's that much of an upgrade. Everyone remembers Karius's fuck ups in the CL Final, but he was pretty solid during the league season. In fact. I'm struggling to recall any errors at all that cost Liverpool. And if you judged goalies by one game, you would kick out Ederson on the basis of the Anfield League game last year and the Arsenal away game this season. And despite the wank-fest over Allisson, he looked quite ordinary in the CL matches I saw him in last year.

Alisson is a better keeper, but I think the main reason is that Karius was so obviously effected by the CL final, during pre season. He was completely off his game and I don't think he ever could have gone on playing for Liverpool.

How much of that will be down to the players letting him 'walk alone' after the game?

If anything, in Karius's shoes, I'd be the one telling Liverpool FC to fuck off if that's how you treat 'one of your own' who has a bad game.

Agree with this - but my point was Karius was pretty solid in the league last year, so I don't think there will be that much a points pickup from Allisson alone. Keita and Fabinho, well the jury is still out. Discounting the West Ham game as they have been goddamn awful, not seen that much difference between Liverpool last year and this year. They will likely need 88-90 pts to have a shot at the league - I don't see them improving 13-15 pts on last year.

Not to mention the death threats from his own fans......

Never happend - fake news!

How can you associate such behaviour with a club with such a rich and glorious history?

Yes, you are correct. I recall being at the game December 81 when with a minute to go (and City winning) Joe Corrigan threw a bottle at himself, blaming it on The Kop.... such a ludicrous allegation

Well it couldn't have been the knowledgeable Anfield crowd - they have a great sense of humour.......
