RAWK goes into Meltdown 20/21 Edition
- Thread starter The Don
- Start date
They're just too nice, too refined, too gentlemanly.
Love how they don't recognise the sheer scumminess of Mane, Salah, VVD, TAA
How old do you think Fergie is?
..
Haha is this what happens when normality returns and you’re back to just making up the numbers haha salty tears

Sir Alex managed for 125 years?
Brian Clough won the Champions League?
Is this a bad attempt at humor or are you just unhinged that Liverpool are embarassing themsleves that you've resorted to a meltdown on here?
Somehow I didn't know they were in 7th. My word!
You either leave a Fergie, or stay long enough to see yourself become Moyes.
You either leave a Rafa, or stay long enough to do a Brendan.
So its true he does run players into the ground. My, Nothing wrong with it, still an amazing feat. Guess there is always be more than one way of doing things eh.
You either leave a Wenger, or stay long enough to become Wenger out blud.
Seriously though the capitulation here is an outlier, Klopp has a bit of adversity and almost looks beaten.
Teams go through adversity agreed but I almost feel embarrassed for Liverpool, behind the sofa stuff.
He has done before, but the previous two seasons he had tempered that style a lot. By last season they weren't as all action, gegenpressing attackers as they were when he first joined. So I am not sure that that is the reason why they have been so bad this season. Their style of play in recent years has been to bypass midfield, boot it up the fullbacks or attackers and play intricate football in the final third. I think it's just been found out, and Klopp has no answer to teams being able to beat him.
Plus you didn’t get to qualify by finishing second and he won it at his 5th attempt.
*Blud
Them finishing 7th and qualifying for the Europa conference would be fecking amazing!
Not from Rawk but still, I hope this is a wind-up.
Unless they do a coutinho, i don't think they can regenerate enough money to refresh that asthmatic, physically broken squad. Its amazing how much they ran and ran for years, and with very little squad rotations too.
Not sure is a combination of teams shutting down their fullbacks or physical exertional limit or klopp doing a klopp, its just brilliant.

Must be Ty's cousin.
Imagine if Klopp lost CR7 and had to replace him with Tony Valencia. Thats a lotta hugs

The caller is barely holding his laugh and these plonkers keep asking are you on a wind up
You know whats interesting ? Everton and west ham are above them and spurs, arsenal and villa are only a couple of points behind, but all of them have a game in hand and some even have two games in hand!
Yeah it's pretty bad. But I'd rather we hit all this shite phase in one go (injuries, the bemusing ref decisions, out of caffeine, covid) and get it out of the way. We have ageing players that need replacing next season but I want Klopp here doing that, not any other manager.
If we're not making top four then one can only pray that we don't make Europa places. Don't want that shit next season.
similar to Paisley then, eh? Only we were hampered by being banned from Europe for years thanks to your scallies in Brussels. Took years to get back on track in Europe for everybody.
We were also serial title winners, or at least contenders whilst competing in Europe. Not cruising in mid table like you lot and Chelsea, saving yourselves for a knockout competition.
Europa league gives managers to play their squad players so they are match fit when needed.
Keeping 18 players happy by just playing in the league has its own problems.
Plus the extra revenue from match days is vital now due to covid.
Sure some of Liverpool and Notts Forest and Aston Villas European Cup wins came from playing five games or seven games total (and winning two two-legged affairs and then a final).. FFS, you had to play that many games just to get out of the group stages under Fergie's reign.. on top of that, the Top Four of every major country was in the European Cup in Fergie's era... not just six or 8 teams in total...)
One Liverpool European Cup win came after they beat Trabzonspor, St Etienne, Zurich and then Monchengladbach in the final... (Literally every team in CL these days gets a tougher Group Stage than that run to the final...
The Champions League is a different beast to the European Cup, save fr the trophy itself.
Yet, despite all that:
No manager won more European trophies than Alex Ferguson.
No manager appeared in more European finals than Alex Ferguson.

Have you seen how many VvDs we've had injured this season? I'm happy with the squad players twiddling their thumbs rather than adjusting their knee braces.
Who switched the fun extractor on?
You maybe happy, but don't think your owners will be happy losing that extra revenue. Then you will throw the "Klopp wasn't backed" card.
I don't think you've ever heard me or any other pool fans saying our managers were not backed by FSG. No reason to think I will say that next season even if Klopp doesn't get all the players he wants.
As for finance, Europa means nothing from sponsorship perspective (we already have the Nike deal) and is certainly meaningless in prize or TV money. Despite continuously jesting about signing Mbappe or Haaland (and them saying they want to play for Klopp) we never sign these types of players. We should have no attraction issues trying to get in the next young, currently little heard of, Salah and Mane types though.
Tell us more about how Sir Alex Ferguson managed for 125 seasons and "failed" in Europe.
Personally, I can't imagine anything more glorious than from going from 'world champions' who were the 'best ever' PL team to the Europa Conference League in one season.
Is it too early for..
