Liverpool thread 2019/20

[kaz7]

Sadly (not in a sad about it way) that commitment last season has cost us a bit this season mentally and physically, yet we've won one, and are currently still in two competitions.

Yep we looked knacked this season,i didn't expect us to keep it up for a third season though,if we win a couple of cups i will be happy

Thought they were only allowed to wear that little golden iron on "champions of the universe" badge ONCE in each competition (informed of it on here so it may not be true); but they wore it against Everton in the last round and again against Chelsea last night.

UEFA won't be happy, surely they're looking into this and are preparing a two year European ban for stepping outside of the stipulated rules.

Liverpool fans will rightly say that the only thing that matters for them this season is the league, but it goes to show how difficult 100 points/unbeaten/trebles (classic or domestic or cup) are, and those are now the markers for "best premier league teams" of all time. If they go on to do 100 points + or a double, then fair play to them. We were lucky for stretches in our runs, particularly in the centurion season, but I do agree with posters that say the Liverpool of the run in last year were stronger, and I do have a feeling that now they've picked up a few defeats a few more will come.

Have the press been talking up "treble" talk? It always felt like whenever we got to January that was all Pep was asked, but I must admit I don't pay much attention.

We set the benchmarks with our Centurions season and followed it up with another record breaking season but let’s have it right, if any of the sky/super Sunday/big 4 had capped off such an upward trajectory with those two seasons you would literally never ever hear the end of it. You only have to read the articles this week following the dippers loss to Watford solemnly declaring the dippers challenge to the invincibles record was over even though they managed a record breaking 18 on the bounce, hang on , no that’s right literally no mention of the team that set the record. City’s achievements are null and void in fact they now have the ammunition they were waiting for with UEFA’s efforts , asterisks at the ready, to delete the past decade and pretend it never happened

I can't believe we are 22 points behind this lot after watching the game against Chelsea last night.

I've now heard them cite the injury of Henderson as a reason for this little blip. The greatest team the world has ever seen is unable to cope with a minor muscle injury to Jordan fucking Henderson!

Player of the decade don't you know.........

Looks like they've hit a wall, their form has dropped right off. Unfortunately its come too late to catch them.

They were allowed to use it once in the PL.
They are also allowed to use it in the FA Cup.

It is not easy to win the domestic treble,you have to be all in and commit to it,what we did was amazing,they are finding out only the best teams can do it

Only the one team can do it Karen :)

We came within 3 games of lifting 5 trophies last season, whilst chasing down a team above us on an incredible 14 match unbeaten run, we didn’t throw any cups, to get there either, that is the sign of a great team

Great post, something the press never picked up on.
But you summed it up brilliantly.
