Sources: L'pool's Arthur out 3 months with injury
On-loan Liverpool midfielder Arthur Melo will be out of action for three months after suffering an injury in training, sources confirmed to ESPN.www.espn.co.uk
2 big games for the Dippers against the 2 best sides in the PL. To get their season back on track they need to be looking at a minimum 4 points which on current form looks unlikely. I just hope we put in a similar performance like we did for the 1st half against the Rags, they won't be able to cope with us.

Oh, I don't know: if they have a certain Mr England on VAR duties...
I suggested to a Liverpool fan down the pub yesterday evening that with City and the three London clubs all at it, if they don't win v Arsenal their league season could be over before it's even begun.
He was adamant in his response. Oh no, he insisted, we (yes, he sad "we". He lives in Ireland, has never been but it's a broad church, the Anfield Cult. Anyway, I digress...) Oh no, we were 14 points behind City last year and we clawed it all back.
No, ye didn't.
Oh yes, we did.
I think it was Twain who said, never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience...
I apologised. Explained how it must have slipped my mind that Liverpool won the league last year.
The narrowing of the eyes, the depth of his puff of breath, as he regarded me in that moment.
Football's 'not the same anymore, anyway', apparently.

I don’t think this is very fair showing the top 4. To be welcoming to all the lurking dippers we should show the top 10 so they still feel relevant. Obviously if they lose today we should just show the whole table moving forward

9 games in nowt isndecided, though they look shite now all they need is a decent run to get back in the top 4 race, I have no expectation of them to challenge us amd will strugle to get 4th with spurs/arse/chelsea in the mix, but rather the cunts finsh above the rags and push them one place lower, with a preference of 19th &20th ;-)

What a clusterfuck of a transfer window.
There's a report on the beeb about how klopp says he doesn't get a 7 year itch, but tbh their transfer dealings, the players he's brought in, just smacks of lazy minded thinking. Half hearted purchases. They're just wasting money on a manager who is now broken. I hope anyway.

They may well have been 14 points behind at a specific point in time but that would've involved having 2 games in hand. I've done a like-for-like comparison of last season, with the points after an equal number of games played.
They were, at worst, 8 points behind us around Xmas/New Year time. So they actually clawed back 7 points over the next few games. That's good but it's hardly 14 points.
