    Germany could do worse....?
  2. Is a yellow for taking off your shirt the most stupid rule in footy?

    Why did the rule ever get introduce? I have recollections of fines in the 90s for players putting political slogans on their jerseys but that doesn't happen so much now so perhaps it should be split like that. Player gets a yellow if there's an offence gesture but no yellow if it's just a...
  3. Darwin Núñez | Liverpool player | Sometimes maybe good, sometimes maybe shish

    Yes Gakpo is even more below par. He's more Fulham or Wolves standard imo (no disrespect as they're having decent seasons but essentially mid table teams). Diaz is the next best but end product is an issue for him in the bigger games. Jota is pretty good with productivity but loads and loads of...

    Felix scoring after Barca have done nothing all game. :lol:
  5. PL Top 4 race

    Which Man. United game gets cancelled now due to the SF?
  6. Darwin Núñez | Liverpool player | Sometimes maybe good, sometimes maybe shish

    Don't think he's anywhere near good enough to lead Liverpool in the post Salah era. He'll score 10-15 in a season purely for getting into decent positions in the box but his overall play is far far too erratic in the key games. Not just the bad pass for 3-3 but he's caught offside constantly...
  7. FA Cup 2023/24

    Their high line gets exposed a bit at Old Trafford I think. They can get away with it at Anfield with the crowd and players bottling it infront of the Kop but I remember the league game last year. Man. United were on their knees but Liverpool just parked their defence 40 yards up and Rashford...
  8. FA Cup 2023/24

    All this for Man. City to coldly and ruthlessly get a 2-0 or 3-1 win in the SF or final. Ten Hag just threw everything at it. What was it finishing, front 4 of Amad-Rashford-Garnacho-Antony with Mount, Fernandes and Erkisen all behind. I didn't even realise McTominay was still out there until...
  9. FA Cup 2023/24

    Taking off Szobozzlai was the key. Had no control whatsoever in the midfield after that with Man. United throwing on endless forward players. Liverpool need to be spending the next two weeks getting him and Salah's fitness levels up as you don't really want to be taking them off after 75...
  10. FA Cup 2023/24

    Salah is going to be near impossible to replace when he goes. Liverpool just don't have the same aura in final third without him there. Gakpo is an incredibly average player for this level and Nunez still far too erratic.
  11. Liverpool are the luckiest club in the league and it will never end

    Now that is a proper deflection.....
  12. FA Cup 2023/24

    Diaz sums you up a bit. Takes so many touches on the ball when in space or counter attack. Gave it away needlessly and Man. United get a corner five seconds later. They're doing to you now what you've been doing to them for 90% of the game.
  13. PL Top 4 race

    It's a good point for us. West Ham away straight after europe is a tricky old game. With regardless Man. United I think two aways + Liverpool at home in the week after the break while Spurs have Luton at home and we have Wolves and Brentford at home will decide things as to if you take the...
  14. FA Cup 2023/24

    Can hardly keep the ball. Still Man. United got a front 4 + Eriksen-Bruno as the CMs so you should be running through them a bit. Gravenberch if he's actually fit wouldn't be a bad sub at this point the way the game has swung towards the end.
  15. FA Cup 2023/24

    Feels like Liverpool will end up with about 40 shots at goal at end of this match. Their end to end transitions are just too much for Man. United to keep up with.
