FA Premier League 21/02/25 - 23/02/25

I really hate football right now

We are just avoiding a relegation scrap while these feckers cruise to the league. They aren't even that great (despite what commentary would have you believe) yet everyone else is not great so they're carrying on unchallenged

Just feck right off
Highly recommend just not giving a shit. Makes it much easier.
 
Probably something like this

no we need tiger klopp
 
Neville with a sly dig at Amorim just then saying that the best thing about this Liverpool team is the way they can play more than one way...
 
It’s laughable how strong van dijk and konate look as a two compared to our lot as a three. Mind blowing really

Helps when you know even if you make a mistake you can hack down your opponent and it won't even be a free kick let a alone a red card. Gives that extra confidence.
 
CIty aren't far away from being top again. They have been dominant in the game but Liverpool just have that X factor right now. Also, the new recruits look good. They have just lost that little bit of intensity that made them so good, specially KDB who will probably leave this summer?

Slots landed on his feet as he inherited a team that has a world class Salah and VVD in it. You don’t need to do much with that team outside of minor tweaking. Liverpool under Klopp have been hilariously pipped by Guardiola to a lot of domestic trophies and a few Champions Leagues by Real Madrid, so they’re still hungry to win stuff but Salah and VVD aren’t getting any younger.

I feel exactly the same way. It's become very uninterestingly boring and there's no joy anymore that comes with supporting your team. It's a complete and utter mess. We went from being the best to the laughing stock of the league.

I felt it was a dig at klopp more than anything else, saying that he’d taken what klopp did and improved on it
 
de Bruyme having his Neville @ West Brom game today or what?

His body language suggested so after that howler of a shot, on top of his horrific passing.... and well, we know he's massively gone legs wise too.
 
City look every bit a team that knows an at least 80 point deduction is coming down, so why bother? Walker etc already rats off the sinking ship.

City the last few seasons set a standard that is ridiculous to keep up.

100 points, losing one-two games, few draws.

This season feels like things have reset. Liverpool aren't as exceptional as the 19/20 side but they don't need to be and they are extremely organised and can be trusted (unlike Arsenal).
 
There is nothing complicated about what Liverpool have built, technically sound footballers who are mobile and can cover ground at pace. While Utd have built a squad of slugs Liverpool have been getting players suited to the league.

FFS. Ten Hag is an idiot.

Yes, and they have two world class players - Salah and Van Dijk who just raise the level of the whole team.

At least it feels like we’re on the track though. ETH should have just been a head coach with someone like Rangnick dictating players to him as a DoF. Murtough was way out of his depth.
 
I am still certain that these city players know what is coming, and they have simply given up.

Yes, the scouse are good, but there is no way city from ast year just capitulates like this. They don't care.

Seems like we’ve just replaced ten hag with a like for like though. Why sack a system coach who you’ve spent 600m buying players he tells you to, only to hire another guy who wants the exact same?

The DOF should come first. Then you hire the coach accordingly.
 
Klopp is a fraud. They are better off without him.
He built a team about to get back on their rightful perch for years to come. The players he brought in have blossomed and Slot has tweaked the style of play. So not a fraud as you very well know. But I get the clinging onto something, anything.

Didn't we have one then the rest of the brains trust spent the early season undermining him.

You could have Fergie in his prime managaingthe squad ten hag assembled and they would struggle to get into the europe places. We have bought slow, unathletic players in an era where speed and mobility is everything.

It’s a bad time for us, so we’ve taken to calling everyone and anything a fraud. Cut us some slack, you fraud.
