It would be an idiotic move because you’d end up with 5 a side games in most games. Think about how ubiquitous tactical fouling is at every level in the league, from top to bottom. Every push, barge, shirt pull, block is by definition a tactical...

Kicking people in the shins isn’t a tactical foul. That’s an actual, sanctionable foul which usually brings a free kick. Clever tactical fouling is basically a collection of barges/subtle shirt pulls/blocking runners/hustling opposition ball...

The fee isn’t being embellished. What’s happening here is in typical embarrassed fan style you’re downplaying the quoted fee for a dud. The quoted fee is £62m upfront with £26m in add-ons. Unless you have access to his contract you and I have...

This is splitting hairs. Fine, the upfront fee is 62 with 26 in add-ons and I’d assume these will never be achieved in full considering he’s rubbish and you’re unlikely to win the CL anytime soon, but even with those caveats I’d assume you’ll...

What talent does he have, aside from being a rapid sprinter? What does he bring to the left wing that someone equally rapid like a kyle walker wouldn’t bring? He isn’t much of a dribbler, his touch is average, his footballing brain is mediocre...

Absolutely criminal that. He was playing against a team with five academy players for the extra time period. Should be sacked for that alone.

You’ve got a very similar leader to VVD in silva in that back line. Granted he wasn’t there yesterday but even when he has been this season it hasn’t made much difference to results. You’ve grossly overpaid for a number of players who aren’t...

Reminds me of our very own flop lazar markovic. Should’ve stuck with short distance sprinting at school rather than diversifying into football.

He’ll complete a beautiful quadruple playing a team of school kids all the way from now until the end of the season with loads of help from VAR and our world-leading inhaler regime. Then he’ll visit his dentist in bootle, get a re-polish of...

They don’t call OT the theatre of screams for nothing. The terror inspired by our top-rate medical team and their effective use of PEDs in our schoolboy cup final winning team is giving the caff nightmares.

Tbh it’s the loss of Lavia, ugo and Carney with their collective 15min of senior-level EPL career action that’s going to really, really hurt them. Most teams would struggle without that trio. If we somehow manage to eke out a win with a team...

7 first team players missing: Alisson - TAA/matip - Curtis jones/Szobo - Salah/Nunez/Jota. If Chelsea can’t beat this Liverpool lineup with the team/bench we’ve got out there then Poch needs sacking tonight.

He simply isn’t coming to Liverpool. The only scenario where he’d be a liverpool player is if we’d signed him at 18 from Monaco. In no universe are our owners sanctioning an annual salary of £200m, and neither does our sporting structure support...

I think only Vava in consecutive finals (58 and 62) but there are others who have scored in 2 non consecutive WC finals (Pele, breitner, zidane). Some pretty big names there.
