Liverpool thread 2020/21

How does there team including wages compare ? It’s never a bad stat

Think United have the highest wage bill, followed by Liverpool, and then us.

Because celebrating the injury of any player is a bit of a shitty thing to do?

It is, of course, but being offended by it or thinking it is a big issue... It all looks rather fake.

Cheers, why get a PHP when someone else can help

Dunno, just seems like common decency to me.

That might have sounded disparaging in hindsight, sorry I learned you can’t know everything about everything so I don’t try

I like to think I am a compassionate person but I just can't bring myself to get upset at others mocking LFC about it or feel the need to express sorrow because of what happened. At the end of the day, he has had one injury, is still earning, will be well looked after etc..

I don't understand why so many non-LFC fans, including a number of Blues on Twitter being upset with those mocking Van Dijk's injury. While several others are posting 'get well soon' messages. Like this from one of the very small number of City accounts I dislike (I only ever come across their messages when others retweet):



Why do people do this? Is it because they think it protects us from some hex or voodoo?

He's hurt his bloody knee. Not suffered ill health, lost someone important or is now unable to support his family. I could understand it if it was a player from the team you support or a player who has had bad luck and deserves a break. Some people are desperate to be loved, just as some enjoy being offended.

Call me a twisted and sick degenerate, but I for one am happy he’s hurt.

Fucked up to say, but I won’t be fake and hide how I feel just because I have a politically incorrect opinion.

Just posting the links to the article in my original post, think it has been posted before as well.

Very interesting article about the methods liverpool are using, and why he believes they have very little chance of winning the league this year, as the damage being done to their players when following the regime they appear to be following, can be career threatening and have long term health effects if used beyond the two year cycle it can be used.

not sure about that article, but love this reference to liverpool: “Yes, they’re also as clean as Peppa Pig’s boots after a day of muddy puddle jumping.” - not very Russian tho!

I'm not really following football news much at the moment, so thanks, I was going on a message from my lad yesterday.

I'm not feeling close to football right now, I watch our games, and our women/EDS, but that's pretty much it, I might view bbc football a couple of times a day too, but I'm just not feeling the football vibe as things are.

Yeah, not easy to muster too much enthusiasm for football in the current climate tbf.

Hang in there, and stay safe & healthy (physical and mental). I don't know where you all are, but I'm on US East coast. Our media's painting a bleak situation of the situation in UK.

If they retain the Title without VVD we will never live it down , given what happened to Laporte last season
Liverpool's squad will be under immense pressure now.
