FA Premier League (and FA Cup semis) - 26/04/25 to 27/04/25

[VivaJesperBlomqvist]

When does the purge of Liverpool fans start? Or are we going to put through the pain of them gloating about their title win? I've already stopped checking any social media, tv, streaming platforms to avoid that.

Purge?! From where?!

feck it. Let them have it. They earned it. Don’t be bitter.

We had this nearly every fecking year for twenty years.

 

[BeretWearingEnt]

Yes. And we won't come back either

Honestly. Weak as piss some of our support. During the 80’s maybe this type of rhetoric may have held weight, but now. With what we’ve seen in the last 30 years, you think what they have is insurmountable. The impossible dream… made possible. But lordspud reckons we’re fecked now. Laughable.

 

[DJ_21]

Klopp had it very hard though to be fair. He came 2nd with 97pts. Slots could win it with just 80

 

[VivaJesperBlomqvist]

On league titles alone, they are joint top with us. European titles, they are miles ahead.

We are still bigger.

 

[DomesticTadpole]

Same here. Have no idea why a United fan would put themselves through that.

Can't understand it either. Why put yourself through it. Only people I would want watching it is our owner, hoping it wakes them up a bit.

Yet here you are on a thread that will be discussing them, talking about them. Add this thread to your blacklist.

 

[FootyGirl88]

I think Arsenal win it next year

 

[DavidDeSchmikes]

a good transfer window of Gravenberch and McAllister, and look what happens

 

[DomesticTadpole]

I think Arsenal win it next year

Do you really want us to suffer even more. To be fair if they get that striker they could. Think there is a mentality issue with them though to get it over the line.

 

[erikcred]

We are still bigger.

But their trophies mean more, so we're even further behind than we think.

 

[DomesticTadpole]

They have bought well mainly. Something we need to get a grasp of.

 

[Maluco]

I think Arsenal win it next year

It will be City next season, 100%. Their performative “we aren’t that bad guys, honest, we struggle too!” phase is over.

They have been able to turn it on to ease into CL places and cup final. Next season will be a title again and a return to overwhelming corruption.

haha, no I just came here to ask that question. Also, one needs some companions to get through a dark day like this. Eases the pain.

 

[brian017]

So I have muted the word Liverpool, the hashtags #lfc and #ywna, the @lfc account of Twitter and my feed is already looking much cleaner. Is there anything else I should mute?

 

[TheNewEra]

a good transfer window of Gravenberch and McAllister, and look what happens

The price of McAllister was a steal

 

[VivaJesperBlomqvist]

feck me we are having a meltdown in here. Chill out.

 

[ayushreddevil9]

You mean signing some good central midfielders? Which utd are allergic to? Color me surprised

 

[DomesticTadpole]

We have had partial purges before, but some of their fans are pretty OK. Same with the City fans. We kept the sensible ones.

 

[christinaa]

But their trophies mean more, so we're even further behind than we think.

Really ??

We had 7 Leagues and added 13 Premier Leagues while they only won two;
We have 13 FA Cups and they have 8;

.................and basically domestically this is what counts.

 

[croadyman]

Yeah most corrupt team in world football

 

[KiD MoYeS]

Depends how much City spend in the summer.

We are still the kings domestically then. Good to know.

 

[DavidDeSchmikes]

The price of McAllister was a steal

was it £35m?

What?! How did you not get that I was joking? I was mocking their tagline of "this means more".

 

[DomesticTadpole]

Depends how much City spend in the summer.

Probably for any player we have been keeping an eye on.

 

[United Hobbit]

The fact their Dutch manager won the league in his first season...

How do we think Slot would have done here? Crashed and burned due to the state we are in?

Oh 100%

We would have made him look like a clown.

 

[DomesticTadpole]

was it £35m?

It is when you think what we spent on Dorgu, Hojlund, Antony, Zirkzee, Mount. It is a long list.

 

[christinaa]

.......................and they're still dreaming of a 'real' Treble.

 

[DavidDeSchmikes]

It is when you think what we spent on Dorgu, Hojlund, Antony, Zirkzee, Mount. It is a long list.

and then look at the likes of Gravenberch costing around £34m

I think the biggest scandal is the transfer money wastage from utd board. How can you spend 100s of millions every season and yet always end up with useless players.

I think City have too many gaps to fill whereas Arsenal just need a striker and maybe another midfielder.

 

[croadyman]

I literally feel pig sick at how low those prices are

 

[Heardy]

Wearing your shirt backwards makes you like like a right twat.

 

[croadyman]

Yeah seems we need to focus on midfield rebuild too, however with our budget it looks unlikely

 

[thegregster]

and then look at the likes of Gravenberch costing around £34m

Liverpool added four new players to their senior men's squad, spending about £165m on transfer fees to sign Alexis Mac Allister, Dominik Szoboszlai, Wataru Endo and Ryan Gravenberch.

The media always report low fees. But when the official accounts are published its a different story on wages and transfer fees.

They don't if it's us

 

[SilentWitness]

You're right but also it's Arsenal and Arteta. If they win the CL this year I'd probably back them to win the PL next year like Klopp and Liverpool did.

Definitely, the money has been spent but 90% of it has been wasted, every season we say about having a clear out, yet replace those cleared out with more dross, that then also needs clearing out

Rinse and repeat forevermore
