Liverpool thread 2019/20

Imagine the press if we did this.

Winning hearts and minds.

They’ve just lost Clyne to a serious injury, Shaqiri is injured for a while also.

Sturridge, Moreno have left. Their only business has been buying a young Dutch CB.

Mane, Firmino, and Salah played virtually every game last season and participated heavily in summer tournaments.

The Ox is back which is good news for them but I don’t see them reaching the heights of last season.

When you don’t strengthen in the Premier league, you don’t stand still, you fall behind.

VAR will take away about 10 of their offside goals (hopefully). They’ll finish second but 5+ points behind us.

I'm sorry... Who ?

 

[The Light Was Yellow Sir]

Yeah, hate to admit it but if they beat us on the day of the 2-1, they could have been Invincibles, Centurions & won the Champions League. Despise them but they're no joke. Just glad they haven't strengthened yet.

They had a pretty good season to be fair but: If Mahrez had scored a penalty and Pickford and Loris not thrown one in, Rico not dropped the ball at Fulham and then given a penalty away, the linesman at Newcastle not fallen for a blatant dive to give them a free kick as well as them playing against Speroni, the oldest PL player last season and only winning 4-3), they might have only got 86 points. If Sergio scores a penalty at WHL, or Spuds equaliser is disallowed or Sterling’s goal stands, they might have won nothing and finished at least 14 points behind us.
I think they might well finish in the top three but they’ll not be anywhere near as close to us as last season.

VAR won't take away 10 penalties though, if anything they will gain 10 penalties + this season . There is a reason dippers and scum have special dispensation to not have screens at their grounds for VAR next season .

You forgot about Milner being offside at West Ham. Even with all that going for them they still came up short, proper kick in the balls.

And in the same game in injury time Origi missing a one on one....when clearly offside.

They will lose out with VAR on offsides, there will still be wriggle room for the officials when it comes to penalty reviews.

Also, we know how the commentators will react, advocating dipper decisions and doing the opposite with ours.

Why do people write bollocks on here ? They didn't
