Liverpool Thread - 2021/22

I’m hoping City, Chelsea and Real leave them with just the Caraboa Cup,and the mentality monsters would have achieved the oneruple.

I have been calling it the Cara“boo” cup as they have their dirty dipping fingers on it!

It’s only the Caraboa Cup when we win it.

Small time I know, but at least it make me smile.

Yes bud he is, I'm not questioning his skills,just his facial muscles. :)

Haha sorry mate, didn’t intend it to come across like that, was just an additional comment, think he’d have been a cracking buy for us, dare I say a Riyad replacement in a year or so (I know, maybe the timing was just out).

 

[yeah whatever !!]

No worries whatsoever fella,you stated a very valid and good point.

Does anyone know how we can avoid the play off game? If we win the league by 4 points will that be enough or does it have to be more.
I think only one of our goals last night was from outside the box so that surely counts against us.

If we lose 2-0 at Wet Sham and they win 5-0 at the Saints, then it is a complete deadlock.

We can say we have won more games and they can say they have lost less, but I don’t think that counts.

If we win the league by 6 points or less it goes down to Net Spend first, then goal difference second.

Just to reiterate what I've said previously, it's rather amusing that this could be the 2nd time now (barring disaster) that they've put together one of the great PL campaigns only to come 2nd to us.

If they win their last two games and finish 2nd it'll be the 7th best season in PL history, and the 2nd best ever not to win it.

Haha

Speaking of Joe Fagan, that reminds me of that classic Twitter exchange between a City fan and a Liverpool fan:

Liverpool fan: “Name 1 (ONE) Manchester City player from before 2008”

City fan: “Joe Fagan”

Liverpool fan: “Who’s he?”

City fan: “Only one of your most successful managers ever you plastic ****!”

You could have the same twitter conversation with united fans.

City fan: “Name 2 (TWO) former Manchester City players involved in the Munich disaster?"

United fan: “wut?"

City fan: “Well for 1, there's Frank Swift...”

United fan: "who?"

City fan: "Goalkeeper, won an FA Cup, also watched by the record crowd outside of Wembley of 84,569, then won the Div 1, all in the 30's before WWII, you know before City existed in 2008, became a Sports reporter and sadly died on the tarmac..."

United fan: "That's ancient history, nothing to do with United except by some shit reporter association!"

City fan: "Ok, the other chap luckily survived, and he was a great player for City, and also won the same FA cup as Frank..."

United fan: "Go on then, what association to United did he ever have?!?"

City fan: "oh..ok... tell you what, have you ever been to London?"

United fan: "Been?!? I live there you farkin muppet"

City fan: "Ok, well it's lucky HS2 is happening then, get you back quicker from the matches you don't actually ever go to, soon... but I digress, in London you know those guards at the Palace with the red uniforms and the funny furry hats?"

United fan: "Well durrr yes, and as you clearly don't know what they are called, I'll give you this for free, they are called 'Busby's!"

City fan: "Really? well there you go. You learn something new every day. Anyway must dash, i'm about to explode with laughter at you'

Even if the wheels fell off completely, and we did lose the title to them, I would still be rather in the city camp than theirs long term, yes it would hurt for a day and half, but the sun is setting on them and an ageing squad and players still not committed to new deals,

Manchester city is a young squad and with youth from within the city camp coming through and add haaland and Alvarez to this squad means goals and city killing teams off early in games

also next season 5 subs rule is playing into pep hands, and we can keep most of the squad from this season and add a left back and another midfield player city could rip teams apart in the first half and change players for the 2nd half

If we manage to keep going and by some miracle Real and Chelsea did the business, I reckon we might witness one of those mass hysteria events that you see on the History channel, like the Alsace dance plague of 1518. Not sure what form it'll take but they are so on the edge and twisted out of shape as a fanbase that anything is possible.

This deserves more than a like, for reference to the Alsace dance plague of 1518 alone. Mass hysteria and the cheeky Mickey's, interesting combo......
