Liverpool thread 2019/20

[toffee balls]

Sorry i do not agree with this, even if you ignore the cheats behind VAR and the cheating refs, liverpool have not been better that us, yes we have dropped points against weaker sides and had Four first team players out in just about every game we have played ( yes i include Sane), but have you watched liverpool they have scrapped past more than a dozen teams this season, just because sky says they are better does not make it so, only one team has out played us this season Chelsea and we won because our strikers were better

They have won 50 and drawn 1 of the last 51 premier league games played.
That is incredible and almost perfection.

Confession, I like Klopp, if I turned up at LFC,for training he would humour me for an hour before sending me way back towards KFC, Pep would sling me out at the barrier as a bad influence lard arse and would also be correct. Ollie would erm possibly offer me a 3 year deal as back up to Luke Shaw!

They would still be top without the scandalous decisions for them and against us no doubt. But can anyone honestly say having watched them that they look like a team who has drawn one single game because they are that dominant? The fact that we are 16 points behind given our achievements in the last two seasons raises questions in itself, especially when we are still out scoring them. If this continues statistically they will be the best team to have played in the premier league. I’m sorry they simply aren’t that.

I'd rather just make a Champions League final than win a League Cup final, tbh...

You’d rather win nothing than something?

What we have achieved the last two seasons is irrelevant. If you drop points from winning positions then you’re going to be behind. If you lose to shite like Norwich and United you’re going to be behind. I hope our club are not acting like our fans, we need an internal look at where we’ve gone wrong this season, not where other teams have gone right...

It’s a staggering record and I think this season will see something that will never be bettered, only the media and Liverpool fans will view it as that, many others will call it the VAR season and will take away from what they have done. I can’t stand their fans they are up there now with united ones, but then I’ve never liked scousers. Their team has ground out wins just like United did many moons ago, I hope they don’t go unbeaten I hope we stuff them at ours to show the who really is the best.

I wonder whether we could coax Mike Riley out of Stockley Park for that one.

Dippers plastic fan base get a kick out of being hated becasue they are stupid enough to believe other clubs are jealous , but i despise them for the disrespect the showed our club regarding the coach attack and the pathetic soundbites that came out of Klanfield in the aftermath , and the fact Merseyside Police couldnt idenify ONE of the culprits , it was a complete stitch up. When you add the fact their depraved supporters managed to get every British club banned from europe for five years and then subsequently consider themselves european royalty , their intellectually challenged fanbase have no grip on reality or any conscience and have never taken any responsibility for their actions . No one is jealous of anything on Merseyside , why would you be ? They are just a bunch of weirdos.

I'd love it if we started winning trophies again and the Merseyside derby was less one-sided, I admit, and I do envy them at times but the incessant 'you just hate us cos you're just jellus' really gets on my tits. I'm allowed to not like Liverpool. Local rivalry is a thing.

As long as the sniper is in place.

I take it seriously, because it's factual.

Liverpool -
Crystal Palace v Liverpool - Palace disallowed a goal at 0-0 for an off the ball push at a corner, Liverpool score to make it 1-2 with Van Dijk pushing one of Palace's players over to win the ball on the 85th minute. - 2 Points
Liverpool v City - Trent Handball, twice could be argued. Mane push on Sterling in the box. Salah offside goal. -2 Points, could be argued -3 points as we could've beaten them with fair officiating.
Liverpool v Leicester City - Penalty at the very end for a Mane dive. -2 Points
Chelsea v Liverpool - Azpilicueta goal disallowed when Liverpool were only 1 nil up, offside on Mason Mount. -2 Points
Liverpool v Wolves - Van Dijk handball, decision not to award a free-kick and uphold the goal was because the possible handball was too far back in play (see above, the Mason Mount offside was further back in Chelsea's play than Van Dijk's handball here) -2 Points
There's -10 Points just off the top of my head, that makes them top of the league by 6 points with a game in hand, but let's look at City's games.

City -
City v Tottenham - Penalty on Rodri not given, goal wrongfully disallowed for handball against Laporte. +2 Points
Liverpool v City - See above. +1 Point, an argument could be made for +3 points, but I'll say we would have drawn them.
Wolves v City - Push on Mendy not awarded as a free-kick, they score. +1 Point.
That's +4 Points for us, just off the top of my head, I'm pretty sure something happened in the derby with the scum too but can't really remember.

New total -
Liverpool - 57 Points with a game in hand.
City - 55 Points
An actual title race with us still to play them at the Etihad, and our main CB back from injury, but no, instead we have what we currently have because PIGMOL and the PL have manufactured this season, it's bent.
The above isn't including all the little niggly fouls we concede that they're okay to get away with, or bookings we pick up for minor offences while Robertson has only just picked up his 1st booking of the season against Wolves, after purposefully elbowing an Everton player in the head, and pushing Walker into the advertising boards at Anfield.

No disrespect but a lot of the above could be easily argued the other way as they were extremely tight calls. Liverpool thoroughly deserve to be top and by a good margin. Also let’s say all these decisions went against Liverpool this doesn’t mean the results stay as they are as the game changes and different scenarios are managed. Seriously from an outsider this is all sounds very childish and sounds very bitter.
