Liverpool have 2nd sewn up - EPL 2018/19

Tranmere are two divisions below Rotherham

so there's a bit of a difference

we havent spent that many billions either tbf

Friday didn't feel this ugly to me, but it's by degrees.

Spurs were away mind

Love the excuses. It's still 7-0.

Nazi salute by Wayne Hennesey 🤔? pic.twitter.com/U4eYrvZjK5

Yesterday evening I had a meal with my team mates and we had a group photograph. I waved and shouted at the person taking the picture to get on with it and at the same time put my hand over my mouth to make the sound carry. It’s been brought to my attention that frozen in a

moment by the camera this looks like I am making a completely inappropriate type of salute. I can assure everyone I would never ever do that and any resemblance to that kind of gesture is absolutely coincidental. Love and peace Wayne

Not sure any keeper should be attempting a Nazi salute in a setpiece situation fwiw.

Moussa Dembele is on his way out

this time last year that was our team

ah, mousa. I didn't understand him at first. he wasn't an especially good passer, barely ever shot, wasn't that quick and always seemed to hold onto the ball for too long. poch arrived and everything changed; all the players were now defenders, pressing, trying to muscle past their opponents and gain ground, and suddenly dembele made perfect sense. strong, balanced & agreeably vicious, he wld shrug off opponents and charge past in a Ronaldo-esque fashion, always getting fouled, always looking like he was abt to mutter something under his breath. he tied the team together, was indispensable for a few seasons and had some magnificent performances in big games. fare well beefy prince

he had the best hips in football for a while

Eriksen to Real in the summer seems to be gaining traction

(with possibility of Isco moving the other way)

xp Absolutely. Ogmor otm. When he was good he was great.

Even last year Dembele was destroying and dominating some of the best midfielders in Europe, he was just impossible to knock off the ball. But I'm guessing we're getting a decent whack for him even now.

Ah OK £11m. That's not bad at all considering his age and injury record.

out of contract in the summer too. eriksen to real seems like standard newspaper filler

what, you're above the Carabao Cup now are ya?

weird game. always something going on, or on the cusp of, but very arrhythmic and full of misjudgements. Rose was great repelling attacks and seems to offer almost nothing else atm. playing it out from the back resulted in losing possession around the centre circle nearly every time. resilience in the last half hour was superb but its neccessity largely avoidable

thought that was a proper game that

we changed it up completely, abandoned possession and pass-to-death in favour of hitting their high line, it made shit of our stats but its where the goal came from and on another night could've seen them with a red or two besides

we couldve played better sure but the thrust and energy was there

thought rose was great meself. he contained a pair of attacking threats and pinned them back now and again with a run

love 2 see our centre backs pinging diagonals

yerman is a very safe backup to lloris.

dont think we'll go through but enjoyed that v much

Yeah Rose seemed fine defensively but has completely lost the ability to pass in advanced positions, he seems to just lose his head completely and give it either to the opposition or hoof a ridiculous cross to no one.

Poor old Burton

That's just tight

ok, that is vulgar

well i mean its happened between epl.teams in the past like

Job only half done imo

aye.. Burton still aren't technically out of this worthless cup competition yet.

conduct of City players reasonable and unvulgar imo. fans booing because they were only given two minutes of added time to score a tenth less so

two minutes is bullshit tho, ref's not there to spare Burton's blushes

in City's FA Cup game on the weekend the ref blew dead on 90:00 when there'd been I think four 2nd half goals and some substitutions. no one seemed arsed then tho

Aaron Ramsey to Juve

???

yeah, I mentioned it up thread. Juve do love a free transfer

Don't see what he'd add to Juve tbh

they're probably looking to phase Khedira out

Has Emre Can played much this season?

Oh 13 league apps I see.

Lee Mason: penalty. Cardiff fans : wah, not fair. Lee Mason: brb, just get a 2nd opinion off some cunt who had a worse view of the incident than me ... ok no pen.

absolutely shit refereeing from a shit ref.

it was diabolical, but we still deserve to go down.

this thing of warnock being a national treasure type figure now hes old and not dead yet and fake chummy in interviews is disturbing

hes a cunt, a total cunt. hes always been a total cunt. a permanently seething basin of negativity that sticks around in bad storylines cos you need a cunt but irl gets found out long before the last chapter and im just constantly surprised hes not been written out of football.

in every way hes a less acceptable allardyce, hes the ne plus ultra of the concept of a poundshop mourinho

when the world allows for a cunt like that run a premier league team- they are dont laugh- then a wto-exit does start to sound appealing tbf
