Injuries building up for them.

Who'd have thought or predicted this would happen around Christmas time with their style of play?

Meanwhile KDB and Aguero are both a maybe for tomorrow for us. Would be great if we can get our injured players back at a busy period just as theirs are piling up.

I think he's a very good young player. Capable of putting in some dangerous crosses.

He is. But he's still only a 20 year old who's not amongst the top full backs in the league. But it doesn't really matter. The question with injuries isn't how good the player is, but how easily they can be replaced. KDB has been out all season and we've done pretty well, but if Fernandinho gets injured, I think we'd suffer more.

It must have been that handful of idiots that every club has.

The same handful, maybe, who dropped concrete on a waiter's head in Bulgaria. The ones who bricked our team's bus in 2018. The ones that wished Ederson dead as he was stretchered off the pitch wearing an oxygen mask. The ones who bricked a supporters coach after the 25 anniversary of Hillsborough. The ones who caused the deaths of 39 Juventus fans in 1985. The ones that cheered Yaya Toure being injured. The ones that looted and fought their way across Europe in the 1980s and managed to get every English club banned from Europe. The ones that stood by Luis Suarez as he racially insulted Patrice Evra.

It won't have been Liverpool fans, though, because it's never their fault.

Well put, a comprehensive list.. Their bad behaviour goes back even further. I remember the early 60s when away travel became more and more commonplace for football fans. Both Everton (on their way to winning the title) and Liverpool (newly promoted) were followed by thugs who created the template for train-wrecking of 'football specials' in the 62-63 season. They also delighted in mobbing match day programme sellers at the grounds they visited, beating them up and stealing programmes. And they began the then new trend of climbing perimeter walls en masse to get in free. Of course, copycat actions soon followed by other clubs' fans (including our own) as the 60s progressed and modern, post-war hooliganism was born and developed. But make no mistake, it was the Scousers of both tribes that kick started it all. Not, as you say, that any of it was ever their fault, of course..

Nor will we ever hear it from the upstanding members of this country's sports/football media.

And even if someone dared to mention it, he or she would be forced to retract and end up losing his/her job.
