Liverpool Thread - 2022/23

Bobbins, he’ll be at Brentford or somewhere in a few years

Accrington Stanley if he’s lucky

As many scousers as you'd expect in this one...

Cant wait to see that nonce with an egg for a head from Ireland.

If it does go down it’s nice to know you are safe in rows 12 & 14 ;)

Doesn't matter what number it says if your in Row 14 your in the 13th row

 

[Rochdale Blue]

Germans can actually be very superstitious about witchcraft, curses and that sort of thing, like some here think the number 13 is unlucky.

I'm more superstitious about players being affected by having their bus bricked by naughty little pixies who are invisible to the police.

Lots of their old guard is on a downward trajectory. Firmino has been crap for a year now at least, mid-table player at best. Milner runs around and that's pretty much it, does nothing useful footballing wise, Henderson similar. Fabinho aswell isn't stepping up.

If the new signings don't hit the ground running and injury-prone players don't miraculously play 75%+ season then I think title challenge is beyond them.

So when do the liverpool protests start

Warlocks...

Warlocks receive their abilities through the influence of some supernatural being such as a demon or fey. They are either born with these powers or receive them through a fell pact, which turns their soul into a dark font of eldritch powers.
Herr Flop is possessed!!

Milner was always the water carrier. If there's no one to carry the water for, what's the point?

Yeah those shitty Yank owners who won't buy Bellingham, tight arses.

I can't believe how bad the dippers were tonight. I know they had a few first team players but still should of having enough to best a shit Rags team.

The lose of Mane is looking huge! He said their main man really, His movement creating spaces for his mates. They seem to be struggling to open teams up at the minute.

No midfield to create anything apart from Thiago and he's a sick note. Milner, Elliott and Henderson as a midfield three is fucking horrendous.

Hopefully the twats drop more points in the next few weeks and put the dippers out of the picture.

I think the biggest clue to his importance was the game against them when he rammed his studs into Ederson’s chest. After his subsequent sending off we annihilated a good Liverpool side 5 nil, the dippers even brushed off the result saying their own style of play relied on his power up front.

It will be just our luck we won’t face them with Milner and Henderson in the middle of the park when City got to Anfield in October. Notable that two teams so far have outworked them over 90 minutes in Fulham and the rags. The season after they ran themselves into the ground winning the league they came nowhere near City. They went all out last season, will we see the same again? Early days yet.

Salah is slowly becoming Ronaldo like. Goes missing for longer and longer periods. Increasingly egotistical. Scores but doesnt contribute otherwise.

Hes still better but can see them regretting that contract as it comes to the final few years

 

[Deleted member 77198]

When Matip and Konate come back van Dijk will be benched. He looks like a right slapped arse now he’s not the top earner there anymore.

He’s on £220k/wk, Salah was on £20k/wk less than that but is now on £130k/wk more than that and it’s as if van Dijk’s playing like he’s seen his arse about it.

This might turn out to be the worst title defence ever, if they don't get their act together

I had United down to win this game. Given their position and the noise around them, it was arguably the perfect league game for United.

In big games Liverpool play on emotion, and this was going to be an emotional driven game. They are not good playing in emotionally driven games away from Anfield. Had it been at Anfield I have no doubt Liverpool would have won comfortably.

Liverpool do not have the capability that City has to take the sting out of a game. Keep the ball, silence the crowd and, kill the game off. Death by a thousand cuts as opposed to swinging wildly trying to land a fatal blow.

I expect next week they'll beat Bournemouth easily, whilst United struggle at Southampton.

There's every chance they will beat Bournemouth,easily as you say,however they are not playing well at all,well not to the standard we all know they are capable of.

Utd have been beaten twice,easily,already this season,so for me this was a perfect game for Liverpool to go there and get a result.

Put it this way,we'd have gone there and won last night.

lovely jubbly then that they gave him a new 4 year contract on around £385,000 a week!

Salah was like this end of last season and also 3 month period the season before. I think he'll inevitably be back to his best at some point but unlike those other seasons there's nobody else to step in at the moment.

Mane is gone, Thiago and Jota are consistently injured, Luis Diaz scores a worldie once every 5 games and fails to deliver in other 4, Firmino is finished. Nunez is too new but probably their best hope once he gets back from the ban.

 

[M Gaudino]

Liverpool still had 70% possession! They’ll be fine when they get Gomez out of the team and back to their first 11.

If we can pump out another 90 point season however i think its in the bag.

 

[Lovebitesandeveryfing]

Nobody should get too giddy. They'll get their mojo back, and they'll climb back up the table. I'd be astonished if either Arsenal or Spurs lasted the course, when the going gets tough.
But we're the better team and, above all, squad. We always have been, apart from that one hangover season we had when they won the league.
