I've seen Liverpool supporters claiming the team keeps getting done by old fashioned long balls. I wasn't aware they had ever gone out of fashion in that part of the world.

The balls they use at klansfield have earned enough airmiles at the end of a season they can fly to the moon and back and still have enough change left from a fiver to buy a small wreath.

Bigger net spenders than City over the last 5 years.

Bet most Liverpool pundits and fans will have a hard time to process this gem of a fact.

And growing given they’ve just signed Gakpo & Spitty wanting them to spend another £200M. The irony is the red media has held up their transfer policy as some kind of witchcraft, when really they’ve just spent a fortune on ready made players in their mid twenties hoping to supplement them with youngsters from the academy, none of whom have been able to bridge the gap to first team football regularly (so they’ve resorted to raiding Fulham) the mid twenties lot are now into their thirties and they’ve got Elliot Jones & Carvalho doing their running, none of which compare to Foden Palmer & Lewis, who incidentally have been worked into the team at a steady rate with a structure in place for their development, compare that to the lfc lot who’ve been thrown in to provide legs for Thiago Henderson & worst of all Fabinho who look’s finished

He's from Dublin (aka a "jackeen"). Therefore, allowances have to be made. Nice to hear him throwing in a couple of Irish expressions, though;

Spanner = someone who's a bit thick. Not sure if it's used in Blighty.

Amadan = similar to "Spanner", maybe a bit more derogatory.

Some numbers below on their midfield compared to ours.
I agree they need a big investment as its currently too old and immobile.
However its not due to underinvestment (shock!) as its almost identical to ours. Maybe a year on but marginal.

**If anything, once you remove the outliers (Henderson and Phillips) I’d argue Liverpool have invested more and more recently than we have.**

Player - Age - Price - Time - Age at transfer

Thiago 31 £20m 2 years (29)
Fabinho 29 £40m 4 years (25)
Keita 27 £55m 4 years (23)
Chamberlain 29 £35m 5 years (24)
Henderson 32 £15m 11 years (21)

Total cost £165m*
Ave age 30
Ave time at club 5 years (4 excl Henderson)
Ave age when bought 24

*excludes £15m spent on elliott and carvalho

Rodri 26 £60m 3 years (23)
De bruyne 31 £60m 7 years (24)
Gundogan 32 £20m 6 years (26)
Bernardo 28 £40m 5 years (23)
Phillips 27 £40m - years (27)

Total cost £220m
Ave age 29
Ave time at club 4 years (5 excl phillips)
Ave age when bought 25

Well they both certainly apply to him Jim,and that's me not being derogatory.

Bet he's never set foot in the place neither,twat that he is
 
It is all going wrong for them so the excuses come out. The media will go along with it. Klopp is cracking up and his nice guy image that they all talk about is falling apart and showing his very nasty side. All we will hear from now on is how poor they are, how other clubs cheat by spending money, how, VAR, Refs, Everyone, is against them. Their fans are going mental. They cannot take defeats. They are bad winners and terrible losers. Fans from every other club are on to them and laugh at them at games. Every team who beats them will be blamed for singing Hillsborough songs. Horrible club. The excuses from Klopp are laughable..... Enjoy it everyone. Long may it continue.

I support Everton, we are crap. We have our own idiot fans, our club is run terrible, we have very little hope. But I thank God I never ended up one of that shower. No club will ever be so up its own arse as Liverpool and their Monopoly Microwave.

Spanner used to get a good airing in the eighties & I’m sure Amadan is used in Braveheart by one of the bearded jocks

On the BBC football page last night there were plenty of posts basically saying the same thing: 'Thank you, Brentford,' and 'Dippers lost...made my evening.'

Universally despised by everybody outside of the club.
