Liverpool have 2nd sewn up - EPL 2018/19

we still haven't reached the end of Moyesy's original contract lol

jesus, great stat

Wins games, keeps the fans happy, probably much cheaper than any other feasible alternative. Can't blame them really.

the timing is a bit odd

like why now, after two losses in a row and in the international break?

I don't disagree with the appointment, but it doesn't exactly scream "we have a well thought out plan for the future"

if they follow through on the long-running threats to get in a Director of Football then I might start to believe that things at the club will change long term (but you'd think they'd want a say in any managerial appointments so...)

gives him a boost?

they could have just gotten him a nice card

thats what levy wouldve done

birthday cake always nice

I'll give him till December

harsh, his birthday isnt til feb again

lol suck it Colin

All in football I have to live for is Cardiff going down and L**ds choking promotion atm. Oh yeah and the possibility of becoming a season ticket holder again after all the autograph hunters have fucked off!

I love how Cardiff fans were ready to built a monument for plane crash ledge, and then the club is like: fucked if we are paying for a corpse.

wtf are u allowed to cross it like that

somebody check, but i dont think youre allowed to cross it like that

i mean we'd have prepared if we'd known you could cross it in and score unmarked, otherwise why teams would have been doing it all season against us and our genius manager wouldve yknow sorted it out pronto

lol dele alli is playing

league still on

balls

dont worry

we'll give it to ye under no pressure and will concede on the counter at the back post

what am i missing here but salah is a mile offside there?

lloris an actual disgrace tho

cunts

Never has an o.g. been more just

LLoris pretty much at Robinson-circa-2007 levels of liable ineptitude at this point and most of what's in front of him isn't much better

instinctively wanted to argue that point but thinking of how much less he has to do and jesus thats possibly otm

can anyone confirm did rose play salah on or was he a few feet off

Salah was way onside, not even marginal.

Yup

fair enough

The sheer poxiness of the win today makes me feel the league is ours

solskjaer's playing the reserves against city u realise

this is going to be like that time when if city won the last 5 games they'd pip team rodgers to the title, except it's like the last 13 games

Why would solksjaer put out a b team against City?

there was not a season in which city faced a challenge of winning the last 5 games to mean they'd pip liverpool.

au contraire, after the gerrard slip city still had 5 games due to postponements

Sunday 27th April 2014, leading positions at the start of the day: 1) Liverpool Pl 35 Pts 80, 2) Chelsea Pl 35 Pts 75, 3) City Pl 34, Pts 74.

Liverpool 0 Chelsea 2, Palace 0 City 2.

1) Liverpool Pl 36, Pts 80, 2) Chelsea Pl 36, Pts 78, 3) City Pl 35, Pts 77.

OK 4 games sheesh (palace city was the late kick off)

the feel of the two situations is totally dissimilar, not least given it was in liverpool's hands with three games to go in 2014.

no I know, it's just that city got their noses in front and then won every game, and could well do the same again from much further out. this time less a slip from liverpool, more a sort of mauling by fate

Fred

The name is familiar.

been a pretty good game so far, not sure why fred stopped watching it tbh

i mean, i'm normally the one who falls asleep during these evening matches

End to end imo, decent game

Utd have been abysmal since the equaliser

We definitely picked up at that point. Utd give it away a lot in deep mid

Did the same in the quarter final iirc

have just settled into faro and our host turned on the tv in the middle of our introductory beer, announcing that he was going to watch 7 portugal players. i was all 'sporting or benfica' but you guessed it

wolves equalised just as he did so

I'd rather to be tucking into a cataplana tbh

I can't watch Young for another season. I just can't
