Diaz looks very basic, stiff and upright. Think he'll be the new Markovic for them, loaned to Turkey in couple years.
 
I am truly shocked that Liverpool have not already won the league.

City must have paid off everyone with a back hander from Ill gained sponsors to somehow manage to sit top of the league…again.

List is not exhaustive:

every premier league team
every coach
every player
every sponsor
every owner
every groundsman
every agent
every broadcaster
every cop, even the blind ones in Mersey.
every candle shop owner

If only we had a world class team with a world class manager and a generous owner. One can dare to dream;)

Might be wrong, but I think Klopp makes a big mistake by not giving Salah and Mane a full week off after AFCON. Maybe Salah wants to play, but it's a mistake nonetheless.

Salah and Mane have played more minutes than any other PL player this season (all competitions). They are 2nd and 3rd for most minutes in the PL and international football combined, but if you include also the CL where they started every game in the group, they have played a lot, and they are nearly 30 y.o. VVD has played a lot too, more than Bernardo. They'll struggle to stay fresh, imo.

Not really. That's the first season in which Liverpool are in all competitions in February, and in which Salah and Mane have played many, many international games. Given Liverpool's style of play (they rely more on running than us to control games) and given the age of most of their key players, they are likely to struggle in the final 1-2 months, imo. Back in 18-19, their key players were 3 years younger. Now the likes of VVD, Salah and Mane are (nearly) 30, and have played more minutes this season than any of the key City players.

I'd be surprised if they keep running relentlessly come April and May. May be wrong, of course. Key is that we should rely on our strengths, and not on Liverpool's potential problems. If we are at our very best, we can win a big trophy or two.

The Dippers have enough cover in forward areas , Diaz wasnt the player they needed even if he will be world class in the next fortnight , their midfield is mid table at best , zero creativity apart from the vastly overrated sick note Thiago. Their main attacking threat is from their full backs which says a lot about their midfield and why they play 60 yard balls "into the channels" or in other words play the Wimbledon way.
Just one defeat or draw knocks the Dippers out of contention , and they have shown previously they havent got the bottle , they fold like a cheap suit when the pressure is ramped up , at least after this season they only have to wait another 29 years for their next title.
