Liverpool thread 2020/21

Sadly, no, he just screeches a lot.

Thank you. I won't be watching any squealing boys on a week night.

Hillsbo


nice use of “principally”

Thanks, but I think it’s egregiously unfair to mark me down for deploying street vernacular. I couldn’t subsist in my professional capacity without routinely so doing. Dench.

Liked. not only as it was spot on but also as the word "truculence" isn't used nearly enough on here!

I need to routinely throw words like that in, just to appear a bit more posh than I actually am.

It can be exhausting at times.

Blimey, I mean gosh, no seriously blimey, I mean bloomin eck. Just out of curiosity are you a fat pear shaped , smelly cellar dweller wearing clothes that haven't been washed in a month? Only asking.

Sorry, pal, svelte & well clad here.

I defy anyone not to be aroused by the above.

It absolutely should, not least because it’s a wank argument. To draw an equivalence between Heysel and Hillsborough - and especially Munich - is utterly preposterous.

Hillsborough was a tragedy that was principally caused by the gross negligence of a public agency failing in its duty to protect the pubic.

Heysel was a tragedy caused by the reckless (at best) truculence of a set of football supporters.

In terms of root cause, culpability and present levels of contrition from those that caused each tragedy, they are worlds apart.

I disagree.

Using any tragedy to insult an entire fanbase and community is wrong.

Funny how things turn. With their slump and weak defence of the title comes pressure. Brazil and McCoist putting the boot in now asking if Salah and Mane are happy at the club and if they'll be sold. They don't get on apparently.
There is no way this kind of talk would have been aired this time last year.

Sam Lee pointed out on his podcast with Mooney that the Liverpool fans can never accept being beaten. This 4-1 doesn't count because Alisson had cold feet. The 5-0 doesn't count because Mané kicked Ederson in the face. The 4-0 didn't count because they'd won the league.


They always have an excuse to try and pretend they didn't get twatted.

What was their excuse for the 7-2 tonking they received at Villa this season?

Grealish had too much gel in his hair?
The grass was too long?
Van Dijk was injured?(hang on a minute....)

It was never a 4-0 game or whatever in a million years. You can tell yourself all you want that it was but the fact is that up until your second goal, it could have gone either way. It’s not like both keepers were busy or scrambling. It was a fairly cagey game for the most part with neither side anywhere near full tilt. And of course it was a penalty, he’s pulled him back and made no attempt to play the ball. Absolutely stonewall.

The problem for most other supporters (especially Liverpool) is that they think that City have to be smashing in shot after shot to regard a game as a thrashing.
This was potentially a 4 nil game. City controlled it. Liverpool had little moments but Pep changed formation and personnel to combat any problems. What did Klopp do during the game to try to win the game against a much superior opposition? His in game management appeared to be standing in his technical area shouting and looking baffled and maybe the odd hug.
Pep is a thinker, a coaching genius. The way he and his staff have handled this pandemic and the challenges it has brought have been quite remarkable. Liverpool can't live with City now. They are way further behind than the 10 point gap in the league table.

Re-watched the game yesterday. After 20 mins Tyler had mentioned VanDyke five times and Bobby Firminho once.
