Liverpool thread 2019/20

The members scheme? Which is bollocks to start with as it only puts them in a ballot for the mad scramble for tickets but it's a yearly £35 mate.

Ok he said a year. It was about 4 seasons ago

Bit like Barry was for us breaks up play easy passes keeps the team ticking but my main point was was/is he the best player this season? The media have a big say in picking it to with there reporting of it. Remember Giggs getting it when he had a poor season hardly played but won it because he was retiring.

For me player of the season should always be from the team that wins the league.

I think that's a bit harsh on Barry - the only thing missing from his game was pace.

Contrary to Henderson who's biggest attribute is his 'athleticism'. He isn't as average as we like to make out but he is very replaceable in my opinion.

As has been mooted, he must offer a fair bit off the pitch..........

Just heard klopp saying on the radio 1 news at 9:90 that he is happy for liverpool to play on neutral grounds or even Mars. Odd he didnt mention the reason why liverpool have to play at neutral grounds that their fans cant be trusted !
Well klopp may be happy about neutral grounds but I am not happy City cant play at home because of their fans

Why wasnt klopp asked by the reporter why are you having to play on neutral grounds ?

I think that's the crux isn't it?

He's the captain of the team having, to this point in the season, the best statistical season in not only English top-flight history, but that there's ever been in Europes top 5 leagues.

Whether that equates to him been the best individual player of the entire league is subjective and another thing again.

But they invaraby go with a leading player from the best team in the league that season so he's getting the traction as he's the leader of it.

How many city players have won player of the year?

No worries. It's a continued mess and a continued source of anger regardless. They are currently making changes but they aren't taking into account loyalty which defeats the whole object. All the membership basically does is affords you the chance to be in the mad scramble twice a year when they open up bulk packages of games on a general. (Or picking up any returns if you're on the ball match-by-match.) With a system so outdated it's liable to bounce you out after you've spent hours and hours queueing with them in your basket. It's unfair and outdated but it brings x # of £35 in every year so they are never going to do away with it.

My seasonie has held at £725 for the last 5 years or so now but our whole ticketing operation is a continued mess.

Don’t really get the Werner hype myself either. Obviously he’d be an upgrade on Origi, but he wouldn’t replace any of their front three in their starting XI. I’d be a lot more concerned if they got Kai Havertz. He looks like an outstanding prospect.

I think he's a good buy precisely because he's a massive upgrade on Origi, but he's also a better out and out striker than Firmino, so if they ever sign a creative midfielder to do the #10 work Firmino does, Werner could end up in the front 3.

Our fans Your fans. Utd fans. Sheff Utd fans. The Ev. Geordies.

They are now talking about moving some London games to the Olympic Stadium, but the initial request of the 5 games was a scandalous, and unwarranted, discrimination against Northern football fans. Again.

We can't trust people in L'pool/ Manchester/ Newcastle/ Sheffield to respect the rules. But F all the people on the beaches in Dorset etc cramming together like lemmings.

It stinks. But comes as no surprise sadly the contempt they continue to hold us all in.

I wouldnt compare our fans to yours we arent all Angel's but compared to yours. Our game is being moved for one reason only your fans cant be trusted

Time for me to leave that there.

I understand why you lot would have to play at a neutral venue because you're about to win the league and your fans have repeatedly shown through the last 40 years that they can't behave themselves. Why City, United, Newcastle and Sheffield United fans are roped into it is beyond me. It's almost as though they can't admit that it's only Liverpool games that have to be moved so throw in a few more to prevent the inevitable accusations of discrimination again.
