  1. Pep's spending is insane (£941m and counting at City)

    This is really well stated. Pep is well-funded, but we expect him to never lose, and he very rarely does.
  2. UEFA Champions League Quarter Final fixtures (9th - 10th, 16th - 17th April 2019)

    Really impressive from Spurs. That was a Poch match through and through — tight pressing, careful ball movement, tenacious from start to finish. Sets up a great second leg. Liverpool definitely lucky with the Salah incident, but this place cracks me up. Liverpool cruised to a 2 nil and...
  3. Liverpool 2018/19

    This thread goes to show that no group of supporters can handle their rivals being on top. The tone in here is just like RAWK used to be when United was in its pomp — paranoid, latching on to any crazy thing to discredit them (Sturridge’s goal against us was lucky somehow?), sure that the...
  4. Players you, perhaps with evidence to the contrary, always believe will come good eventually?

    Saido Berahino. Gonna rip up the Championship this year.
  5. Liverpool 2018/19

    This aged well. Liverpool needs to put up or shut up this season. They've spent the money. Enough excuses.
  6. What's going on at Chelsea?

    Roman will be fine. Surely now is not the time to begin underestimating the power wielded by the richest people in the world. As for the club...yikes. We are all over the place with the manager, with transfers, and generally with the allocation of decisionmaking authority throughout management...
  7. Did Liverpool have a good season? [Poll added]

    A lot of people seem to think that the only way a team can have a "good" season is to win a trophy. Ok, so one team--the league winner--is guaranteed to have a good season. Most years, an English team doesn't win the Champions League, so that one's out. Chelsea won the 2nd best trophy in...
  8. Klopp record in finals

    This thread exemplifies how dumb the "Klopp can't win a final" meme is. Did anyone watch the match? Did they see Liverpool's best player get injured, followed by the keeper personally gifting the match to Madrid? People spinning that as incompetence by Klopp are embarrassing themselves. I have...
  9. Sergio Ramos

    Will be remembered as a winner, and as a cheat. A Rorschach test for football fans. Not sure I could dislike him if he was on my team, but given that he's not, I want nothing to do with him.
  10. West Ham United vs Manchester United

    Have to hand it to you guys, these matchday threads are hilarious.
  11. Premier League Gameweek 37 weekend and midweek fixtures (4th - 10th May 2018)

    Extremely frustrating result. You just felt that if Liverpool was required to get a win, they might fold under the pressure of knowing they had to go out and achieve something. A draw is much less threatening. We've been poor for much of the season, though; can hardly complain.
  12. Premier League Gameweek 37 weekend and midweek fixtures (4th - 10th May 2018)

    Ugh, what a strange player Morata is. Gets in the right positions consistently, but then does the darndest things. I assume we'll sub in the cavalry around 60' and put this to bed.
  13. Top Four Race 2017/18

    Not over yet! That was just the kind of result we've been getting lately. Not pretty, but resolute and determined. Is it too much to hope that Liverpool has blown itself out? Scoreless in their last two Prem games. Just need a draw from them now!
