There is no denying something that is completely speculative?

So what's he saying? That Liverpool players are crap so have won v little even with the Nobel Prize winning mind of Klopp? But I thought they were best in every position?

Well that sounds pretty sewn up already then. Will be a magical night under the European floodlights for their very broad (Irish) fanbase

Hopefully they will throw each other off the ferry ; )

I see the bcc have dubbed them "liverpool 2.0" now.

Might as well be Celtic.

Game v Wolves Mac Alister was absolutely fucking wank and was subbed at half time, Wolves should have been out of site, Mac Alistair is not 35m, he’s got considerable add ons and I can’t see those being based on winning trophies alone, I’d guess they include appearances. He’s got severe limitations.

I think we will have to disagree on this. The upgrade in our midfield, from last season to this can be proven with results and stats. Macalister is a quality player, and because he is PL proven, he doesn't need a season to bed in. He is ready to go straight away.

Most Liverpool fans would have had reservations letting Henderson and Milner go in the same window, but as soon as you mention Macalister, everyone shuts up. I think we will see the best of him this season.

They have done some good business in the summer in the middle of the park. They seemed to lose the ability to press as a group last year and stood off teams which resulted in the season they had. Having the fresh legs and younger upgrades to Henderson and Fabinho will give Liverpool that back. I expect Liverpool to be in the mix, they are a momentum team with how they play and the intensity they put in during periods of the game that if you aren’t careful as a team you can find yourself a few goals down pretty quickly.

They have had to come back from a goal down in almost all of their games this season and really should have been a couple down in most of them, it will be tough for them to continue getting away with that

Then twats are dynasty, City are Dallas.

A bunch of cowboys?

Agree with this.

Klopp teams defend from the front, the forward players win the ball back and the back line pushes up. This is why Ten Hag has struggled this season, because his forward line is not pressing or turning the ball over.

Although, Liverpool's defense is not as good as their rivals. Allison is still exceptional, but VVD and Matip are slowing down rapidly, Konate needs a run in the team and Trent is not great at defending and it often caught out of position.

My mate at work is a Liverpool ST holder, said McAllister was shite against Wolves.
