Liverpool are going to break Arsenal's 49 game unbeaten run | HAHAHAHAHAHA LIVERPOOL BASTARDS | Specialists in Failure

So we win the "take points from Liverpool" trophy ?
It's not a trophy. It's not about United being proud. It's about the fact that all coverage will forever nag at Liverpool.

If Liverpool were to lose 5 games, 2019-20 will be remember as good title winning season. And TV retrospectives 20 years from now will only talk about how well they played.

But if Liverpool draw only 1 game, any TV retrospectives would open with the line "Liverpool had a near perfect season, only dropping points against their bitter rivals Manchester United."

Liverpool fans may not want to admit it right now, but in the future they'll have preferred to have w37 d0 l1 record where they only lost against West Ham. Or maybe even a w37 d2 l0 where they drew against United and Brighton.

It's that nag in the back of the mind that will always be there. No commentator or pundit will ever let them forget it.

Liverpool have already won the title. This isn't about taking it off them. It's about that one game being the one that got away.

I'm not coming at this from a pro-United point of view. I'm coming at it from an anti-Liverpool point of view. In that respect, a single draw against Everton would have been just as funny.

Are you serious? You think pundits, or even fans will be hung up on that? In that very hypothetical situation that's not gonna happen anyways. 100% of Liverpoolfans would be delighted to go 37WD1. You're delusional if you think it'd somehow hurt that Man Utd were the ones who got points from us in that hypothetical situation.

People need to stop talking about records...it really doesn't matter at all. All that matters is that we're gonna win the league again, for the first time in decades. For me, the only record that matters is the trophy record. To be able to call yourself the most successful club is very nice for bragging rights.

I doubt anyone would care as much as you believe.
 
Like Lady Macbeth trying to wash the spot of blood from her hands. They almost got away with it, but that spot is always going to be there and it'll be impossible to not think about in any retrospective.

So does that mean we’re going to collectively commit suicide when we can’t take the mental strain anymore?

That’s pretty dark :lol:

It's not an issue for them today.

But if you ask them if they'd prefer a 100% record, they'd say 'yes'. And if you asked them the one team wouldn't want to drop points against in a 37-1-0 season, it'd be United.

They've already won the PL title. It'll be their 1 against United's 13. And whilst they'll be able to say they got a record points tally, we'll always be able to have a jab back.

Is this serious?!...

I will be more than happy ending the almost perfect season of W37 D1. Makes no difference to me if the draw is Utd or Norwich as the achievement would far outweigh any rivalry.

I would only give it a slightest though if we drew the last game to say someone like Utd.

Honestly though, even the most deluded Liverpool fans would not in their wildest dreams of expected a perfect season (or even close to one) at the start of the season. So I am not exactly bummed out because of a draw to utd near the start-mid point of the season.

What nonsense about 13 titles to one, it’s 19 v 20. If your dismissing everything pre 1992 then your disrespecting best, charlton, law etc.

So if in 5 years time it’s rebranded does that mean your tally goes back to zero, pathetic.

Just hearing this from Utd fans all season should help fill the hole of that one drawn game. :cool:

You're making the mistake of thinking that Liverpool fans place greater emphasis on beating United than anything else, including league titles, European titles, and historic unbeaten and/or winning streaks.

If Liverpool went 37-1, it would still likely be talked about 50 years from now as the greatest league season in history in any top league, especially in England. No Liverpool fans had expectations even close to that before the season, and no team would even be bold enough to aim for the record going forward, so it's not something that would be disappointing in the slightest.
 
if anything its actually quite beautiful that liverpool's 100% record tarnished by united...

same thing happened when citys 17/18 team got beaten...first by liverpool, then by united...two teams who are traditionally much bigger than city

The idea that a 24-1-0 record has been "tarnished" because there is a draw in there is hilarious. This is the best run from the beginning of any season from any top flight team across Europe, and by some way right now. The previous best was 19-2-0 by PSG, Man City, Bayern and Juventus.

Weve also taken 100 points out of the last 102 on offer. That we dropped 2 points? Wow we couldnt take 102/102, dont we feel stupid.

Also with regards to going the season unbeaten, once the title is sealed, there is larger possibility we will lose one of the remaining games. Why? because we would likely rest players for the CL if we are still in it.

Winning the CL takes priority over a "record". Id happily dump the run right now if it meant it would guarantee us a place in the CL final to compete for the trophy.

Dante

Come on now, how old are you?? Like 5??

It’s a long way off yet but let’s live in your hypothetical world, Liverpool W37 drawing just one game to United

You think years to come the big mention in all that, is the Draw to United?

You think United fans will be boasting about that??

Or that Liverpool fans will be “gutted”?

Cool

It would be ironic I supposed, that it would be United, a poor United of all teams, to nick points, but nowt to smash home about

This is RAWK material. As a Liverpool fan, I can tell you - there'd be no bitterness from ANY Liverpool throughout the world if we somehow manage a 37-1-0 season.

If we ended the season 37-1-0 it would eat away at me. Wed never live it down, it would be embarrassing, a season to forget knowing we drew to Man Utd that year, people would keep reminding us that in our 112 point season we drew a game to Man Utd, its not worth thinking about a nightmare season like that...

People are forgetting Liverpool are obviously going to drop points against another team anyway.
They'll win the title and rest players for the CL.

No way are they going to get 112 points :lol:

Liverpool have already got 108 points in consecutive 38 games. :eek:
 
In fairness I was just discussing @Dante point with a Utd supporting mate of mine and yes, hypothetically I would prefer 36-2-0 over 37-1-0 and dropping points to United alone.

Its not realistic though, as crazy as it sounds we must drop points at some point surely. In fact, I'd wager that Klopp will want to regularly give his top players a break once the league is mathematically done, given how he keeps complaining about the amount of football they are required to play.
 
They will lose their invincible record on May the 2nd against the 'only invincibles'.

Doesn’t make a difference to me anyway. We’re going to win the league and get to 19 titles. I haven’t said that in awhile. 19 and the insurmountable and impossible to catch 6 European cups puts us as historical top dogs in England. I just hope we keep it up and get 20 next season just to cement it.

You know we've got 20 right?

If so what's the excitement around getting to 19? Just that you've been on 18 for so long?

Imagine the worst case of blue balls in your life and you'll get the idea of what it's felt like to be a Liverpool fan up until now. It's been horrific waiting for the league to be won for us again :lol:

It was always 18-4. When you got 20-3 you moved ahead in my book. 19-6 puts us ahead in my new book.
 
Holy shit! There's a name I haven't seen in a long time!

I'm sure you're loving it.

Haha yeah I've lurked shitloads over the past few years, posting infrequently. But I'm trying to be more active now like I was back in the glory days. I hadn't seen any of your posts in ages so I thought you'd taken a break from here. Nice to see you're still around bud!

Yeah, it's nice to see us so successful, being able to tune in on the weekends and see us win all the time is pretty amazing. This must be how you lot felt when you were at your peak!

Yep. You've got to enjoy it while it lasts, as your older fans can tell you and United fans like myself who grew up with Fergie are learning more and more.
 
I don't want them to set an unbreakable record points total, because that is something that lives in history books forever. If they win a regular season and simply go from 18 to 19 I can live with that, because they already have 18 ordinary league titles, one more doesn't make a difference to me in the grand scheme of things.

Liverpool fans may not want to admit it right now, but in the future they'll have preferred to have w37 d0 l1 record where they only lost against West Ham. Or maybe even a w37 d2 l0 where they drew against United and Brighton.
I'm just looking for Liverpool to win the league. Not even bothered about the draw to United.
 
@Dante 's post reminds me of us feeling good about managing to give United a hard time in their pomp no matter how shit we were doing overall in the league. And I now realize what an absolute non-issue it must have seemed to United fans.
 
I hope they win every league game between now and the end of the season, giving them a record or W37 D1

How are they going to celebrate it?

A title? Okay, but a team wins the title every season.

An unbeaten season? Okay, but Arsenal already did that.

The highest ever points tally? Okay, but there's been a highest ever points tally since the sport began.

A near perfect season? Okay, but why not perfect? Oh, you dropped points and blemished your otherwise spotless record? Against who? Oh, Manchester United? Manchester United, as in your most bitter rivals? Oh, that's nice.

It's going to be impossible to talk or think about the the season (as undeniably great as it is) without being forced to consider that Ole took points off them.

Like Lady Macbeth trying to wash the spot of blood from her hands. They almost got away with it, but that spot is always going to be there and it'll be impossible to not think about in any retrospective.

I just hope they get knocked out the cups, though.


Actually, you're right. And you know what would be even worse for us? If the same thing happened for the next couple of seasons as well. We'll never be able to live down that humiliation.

if anything its actually quite beautiful that liverpool's 100% record tarnished by united...

same thing happened when citys 17/18 team got beaten...first by liverpool, then by united...two teams who are traditionally much bigger than city

If City hadn't been beaten by Liverpool in the league already, they would have taken the Utd match more seriously because of the chance to go unbeaten. As it was, they played Utd between the CL matches against Liverpool and rested a bunch of their starting 11.

Wow, @Dante , that's some next level delusion. Do you actually believe what you're writing?

3 factors in Liverpool being so far ahead.

Motivation from last year.

VAR gifting them points and hobbling City for first 4 odd months of the season with Laporte getting injured.

The 18 teams apart from City / Pool have declined hugely, big name teams especially dreadful this year, Chelsea, Utd, Spurs...

Overall, it's a woeful season unless you're a Liverpool fan.
This kind of thinking bugs me a bit. Yes, they've been fortunate with VAR and injuries but the main reason why they have so many points is that they are ridiculously, historically, enviably good. Better to just admit it.
