The dickhead on the top left always has something demeaning to say about the opposition in his opening speech, but he is a buswrecker so I guess it goes with the territory

He's a cocky gobshite, always giving it the big one when they win. Seeing him subdued is piss funny, especially after he was so cocksure they was going to walk it again.

I think Klopp is leaving at the end of his contract, which is about 2 more years I think?

Their squad is at their current level is mostly Klopp's credit. They have a tendency to go for bargain bin hunts, only Klopp managed to turn the mediocre signings into world class wonders. Rodgers couldn't do it, Dalglish couldn't do it, Hodgson couldn't do it. Even the fans wanted Henderson out before Klopp arrived. Without Klopp, they will probably be back where they were before he arrived - mid table.

That is of course, they find another Klopp.

Don't read/watch BBC. I'm just saying what I observe and offering my personal opinion. I'm giving credit where credit's due from a neutral standpoint.

I know posters here don't like the Dippers and neither do I. However I still stand by, without Klopp, they are a midtable side.

We don't have any..... don't you know the no history angle?
 
I get all the piss taking about Liverpool on here and enjoy a laugh at some of the comments but to say Liverpool have been luck or are a poor team is ridiculous. They have been in 2 Champions League finals and won 1 . Won the Premier League by a mile and generally been 1 of the 2 best teams in the last 3 or 4 years. Everybody will concede that City have a stronger squad overall but Liverpools best 11 are more than a match for any team in Europe.

Erm erm net spend, Coutinho money, organic club la.
Fair play though half the comment “bargain bin” is correct.
The Dips have Spurs away after the FACup and then the Hammers away.

I accept that it might be poor choice of wording on my part. Maybe "bargain bin" is not the right phrase. For that I apologize. All I meant to say is that Liverpool aren't a club to spend 100m+ on a Haaland, Havertz or Mbappe, etc. Compared to their closest European competitors, including us, they can't compete in terms of spending.

In any case, my original main point was they are where they are now because of Klopp, not because of shrewd/wise investments. That's my point. I'm not arguing they have made wonderful signings for well below the cost, in fact, they have mostly pretty average signings.
