That’s my point. A quick PM and I would have fixed it. Thanks for your measured response.

No worries - we all get it wrong sometimes mate.

Of all the cringeworthy lines James Pearce has had to put out over his career in order to satisfy his Liverpool propaganda quota, this might be one of the worst.

That's right, Jurgen Klopp went on a rant about how Lierpool aren't top because unlike City, they didn't have the luxury of a...2 day break.

This is the "corrected" quote.

"We need to play football, train and recover and use each minute to train. We haven't had a break, City had 2 days for covid reasons. It's a tough year. Some teams it looks less, but for us, it's tough."​

​

It's even more stupid than the original.

I seem to remember us playing on a Saturday then Tuesday while they played Saturday/Thursday at one point. Does that not count as a 2 dy break also?

So did they respond to your PM asking for an explanation, or does discretion only work in one direction? :-)

Couldn’t PM if I didn’t know which mod. You only get a post deleted notification.

Cheers. I suppose Mersons stupidity will just have to go unchallenged by me now.

There’s also the narrative about Liverpool being unlucky with their injuries compared to us. Have they also got their best player out for weeks? Have they had their top scorer out for months? Ok they’ve got their best defender out but we’ve hardly had an injury free season. Quite the opposite.

Funny how no one in the media mentioned our injuries last season as an excuse

Jack Gaughan managed to write an entire article in the Mail on this “war of words” without apparently seeing fit to state the correct facts and demonstrate that Klopp was at best mistaken or at worst a bitter, bare faced liar

I was corrected last week when l thought he was a twat over the reporting of the WBA match. He was a twat then and still is a twat.

Only after 19 games have all teams played each other once. That is the first milestone to negate any arguments about easy fixtures.

The League is decided after 38 games including home and away fixtures with all teams. The start and finish is the same for all clubs making a mockery of Klopps statement as all teams play within the same time frame. Desperate or what?

Except we started later than everyone and thus our 38 games will be played with a lower average amount of time between them.

You'll may have to subscribe for the paid version to see a more balanced report and......I'll bet it'll still not be there.
