Yeah in context. The signs were definitely there.

They'd just come off a down month with dipped performances that ended with the unbeaten league record going at Watford. But as every single player had a collective off-day that day in a woeful outing, of which a brilliantly up-for-it Watford took full advantage, you just put that down to 'one of them' that happens knowing how virtually impossible it is to go a full season unbeaten in England. But then they follow that with a second straight defeat for the first time in Christ knows when at Chelsea the Cup, when a really strong side where equally woeful, and then you start to get concerned about the recent dip in form.

But to come out against Bournemouth, fall behind, at home, to ramp up the pressure even more, with all the nerves that naturally surround any title run-in, much-less one when you've been waiting 3-decades for the end prize, and dig in, scrap for everything, and dig out a massive 2-1 win, all off the back of 3 defeats from the previous 4 games, was a real testament to the ridiculous mentality within that group and a refusal to not get beat. Lesser sides would have crumbled and dropped more points. But, whilst still not being anywhere near their best, they dug in, sorted it out, and ground out another mammoth win. Having witnessed my side pick up the title 6 times in person, I can remember well that you get NO extra points for style. Getting over the line is ALL that counts at this stage of the run-in. It's rarely free-flowing from here on in. You just make sure you do enough for the points and move on to the next game.

Sign of a proper title side and a sign things were swinging back the other way.

Which they then followed up with an absolutely superb display against Madrid that, albeit falling short in the end result, was a real pride night in an absolutely fantastic game of football, from both sides, which on any other day L'pool win 4/5 without Oblak having an absolute Worldie in the Madrid goal, But you can't legislate for a goalie mistake in extra-time, and when that happens and the away goal advantage swings with minimum time to get that back, Atléti took full advantage and progressed. Fair play to them but you couldn't have been prouder of L'pool on the night as they really returned to style.

So yeah, in context, things certainly appeared to be righting themselves after the mini-blip through February.

Oblak having a worldie? He played well, but I don't recall him making any unbelievable saves. Your performance in the 1st leg was crap and over the 2 games Madrid deserved to go through.

The only reason that Madrid went through is that they employed kick and rush anti football unlike Liverpool who play kick and rush total football.
 
On my screen it is page 1661, I could waste 15 or so minutes reading up to 1665 but you know what, I cant be arsed. They set out to divide and conquer and you lot, by replying, are helping them achieve that.
To me it is like clicking on a daily mail article, why give that scummy paper any oxygen ? Anyway, I know it is what they want but for now, I'm out.

Stay strong brother! I personally will not respond or engage in conversation with them but feel it my duty to keep poking them with a stick to get a reaction. The fact that they still seem reasonable tells me they are not real fans but employees of Furlough FC sat in a PR office in Klanfield infesting not just our forum but probably most of the PL forums. They are on the verge of their first PL title and while they may be adored in the far east or Africa they are universally hated in their own country and this is just an excercise to garner some support amongst us Brits!

Fair enough. Let's sort this out once and for all like gentlemen.
@KloppiteE what would you call a large soft white bread roll with chips in it?

I’m staying out of the more controversial arguments now, but the answer here is either barm or maybe batch. Fuck all this tea cake and muffin nonsense.

I liked your first post but then saw it was duplicated, if I like that as well do you get 2 ticks ? Cant have that you will be catching me up. :-)
 
I understand that some people don't want Liverpool fans on here, but I don't want to change the forum rules just for one club either. As mentioned the other day, just put anyone who annoys you on ignore, or report them if you think they're wumming for the mods to deal with. Don't really understand why some get so wound up though. What do you do when you meet a Liverpool fan in real life - just storm off and refuse to even talk to them?!
