Yeah, that's fair enough. I think I'm talking less about how Klopp would have been viewed. I'm talking about would Liverpool have been better of without Klopp had he just fallen short. I don't think they would have because he's an excellent Coach. But I totally agree that his legacy is is...

I get what you're saying and it's a fair point. The end goal is winning the biggest trophies. The intermediate goal was to compete for the biggest trophies, which is a level we've now reached despite most writing it off. I think we're already considered a top club (depending on your definition...

What a time for his worst ever corner.

I mean, has anybody round here said anything like that? The previous few pages are full of Gooners saying maybe we shouldn’t sack Arteta for coming up short against one of the greatest Managers of all time. Arteta clearly isn’t on Pep’s level, but that’s a humongous straw man seeing as nobody...

There are lot's of reasons I (and most people) wouldn't put Ole in the same bracket as Pep and Klopp. The primary one being that he isn't a particularly talented Coach. And no, Ole wasn't really in a title race... because he finished 12 points off of top spot. You could argue that Arsenal also...

Surely they had the league sewn up even earlier with United 12 points behind them?

And had Arsenal won at the Etihad and all the other results stayed the same, we would have been Champions. It’s all ifs, buts and maybes. Do we really think City was going fully tilt with United double-digit points behind? Surely the same logic applies to Ole’s points gap (it could have been...

Maybe because it was 12 points and that is a pretty sizable gap.

Ah yes, the return of Shrodinger’s Title Race™️ - that we somehow simultaneously both completely bottled and were never actually in.

That’s fair enough, interesting answer.

You can actually taste the condescension in that post. You have spiked my curiosity, though. You imply that you know the reason why ETH plays with: A back line that defends deep AND a midfield that aggressively man marks AND a front line that constantly presses high Leaving a gaping chasm in...

United are sixth in the league when it comes to injuries. A “fair few injuries” as I said? Yes. A “statistical anomaly”? That’s a real stretch - 6th out of 20 is the upper end of mid-table. If you’re trying to say that an anomaly then the word has lost all meaning. Also, it’s a bit mad saying...

I’m also baffled by how United’s season is described in this thread. There were were a fair few injuries and a falling out with player who was subsequently loaned to his former club. I guess the only thing you can add is the loaning out of Greenwood, but he already hadn’t been part of the squad...

The contact clearly comes. Neuer mmoves his leg towards the ball and into Saka's path. You could argue that Saka "played for it", but it isn't a dive.

Being talked about by who? Lazy pundits and fickle fans? It’s completely irrelevant for me, I’m just concerned about how he’s contributed to the team. You can’t be a key component for a side that is challenging for major honours and be playing poorly. “Most of his goals come vs weaker teams”…...
