Liverpool Thread - 2023/24

[Brightwell Bros.]

Do folk still think Liverpool will be your main challengers?

You're starting your title parade early this year? Thought you'd wait till the clocks had gone back at least.

He’s no Elvis Costello, then?

Obviously can't see the attractions

They desperately need a defensive midfielder. Panic buy incoming. Maybe we can turn a profit on Kalvin Philips

Michael Owen and his entourage just breezed in to the Princes Head in Richmond, I thought I was small.

I conjure an image of him literally blowing in on the wind.

Wow BB, that was quite a jump from the simple question I asked!

Main, no, but i reckon they'll be up there and will improve from last season.

Still think they're capable of beating both City and Arsenal in a one-off game, but I do fear for them over the course of a season.

Certainly didn't see challengers today, and unless they find some serious consistency, it'll likely be between the two of us again.

Klopp is a vastly overrated manager.

Defensively, they've always been shite without Van Dijk.

Shite before he signed.

Shite when he was injured.

Shite now he's past it.

Laughable that morons used to compare him to Pep.

Not sure Klopp is vastly overrated. Hasn't he won every trophy with the Dippers and he won the league in Germany with a team that wasn't Bayern. He's a top manager.

I'm not sure yet. We'll see what the table looks like in December. Too early to say either way. I think Chelsea looked good against them today and defensively they didn't look good.

Come on, Klopp is the only one who's been able to push Pep close in recent years. Let's be honest if it wasn't for our record-breaking form and some wonder goals and performances (Kompany v Leicester, Gundogan v Villa etc) he'd have his hands on a few more league titles. I am sure if you asked Pep if Klopp is a good manager he'd say he was - who else in England have had more than 90 points and lost the title?

He's also ripped us a new one in the CL.

I do think we should give him credit for turning Liverpool into title contenders. I honestly think Klopp is the only one who pushes Pep as well.
