I want Liverpool to win the PL because frankly it would be good for EVERYONE, for the whole of football, if this goddamn City, despite having Pep and buying the whole market, would get beaten.
And noone else but Kloppo can possibly do it.

After that, I go back to rooting for Arsenal.

Just because you keep knocking them out? dont worry that will change by Feb.

It would really be something if Liverpool actually chokes and fails to win the league. No excuses not to win it at this point. City has a much more difficult schedule, and Pool will have a 7 point lead after today.

Keita has been disappointing so far since joining Liverpool tbh

sure he will get there eventually but he's not playing well for a while now

In a league campaign, noone actually has a "more difficult schedule" Laughing

yeah he started well but injurys set him back. next season he will be better.

that should have been a red ffs.

by elfmeter Wed Jan 30, 2019 8:44 pm

The pitch looks a mess, makes for a poor game. You really just want to keep the ball in the other half and hope to capitalize on a mistake, foul, slip... whatever. Dont try and pass the ball out from the back, just play route one stuff. It may be ugly football, but that is what Liverpool should do 2nd half.

by Unique Wed Jan 30, 2019 8:48 pm

this is gonna be one of them days i just know it :facepalm:

by Nishankly Wed Jan 30, 2019 8:48 pm

1-1 Maguire

by Hapless_Hans Wed Jan 30, 2019 8:49 pm

completely forgot that City are playing goddamn Schalke in CL :facepalm:

This Schalke is probably the worst team to ever feature in the knockout rounds

by RealGunner Wed Jan 30, 2019 8:49 pm

Watford ffs :bow:

please hold on

by iftikhar Wed Jan 30, 2019 8:50 pm

We are back to sloppy defending :facepalm:

And Lovren isn't even on the field :brickwall:

by Unique Wed Jan 30, 2019 8:50 pm

need to get fabinho on for the nabsta

by RealGunner Wed Jan 30, 2019 8:50 pm

Bournemouth ffs :bow:

1-0

hold on both of you

by Hapless_Hans Wed Jan 30, 2019 8:51 pm

Let's just point out that Maguire should not be on the pitch anymore after that blatant last man foul

by Doc Wed Jan 30, 2019 8:52 pm

I always liked Maguire for a reason, thank you.

I think from the eyes of the Ref, Mane was not running through alone. Difficult red considering the amount of space infront as well.

I mean sure technically you're right.

I was just comparing their upcoming fixtures and taking into account how City was playing cup games while Liverpool got knocked out early in them. I think they've played 4 more games in the last month compared to Liverpool.

United is the only away team they have left to play against in the top 6 (Spurs and Chelsea at H).

I'm obviously not going to ignore the fact that they beat those top teams earlier compared to City who have yet to play them. I'm just saying since City have yet to play them, hence their fixture list looks more challenging. Credit to Liverpool for getting past those teams already. City is also struggling against the small teams, Liverpool is getting past them quite easily.

They'll also likely have a 7-point lead after today.

Seems like its a favorable scenario to me. Now is as good as it can get for them to win the PL.

by Unique Wed Jan 30, 2019 8:56 pm

the pitch is killing us tbh. we need a massive effort in the 2nd half.

by CBarca Wed Jan 30, 2019 9:01 pm

This team is Dier* without Kane/Dele. Son is exhausted. Defense the last several games should be fine because there haven't been many injuries there but they're arguably the worst part. I think Sissoko and Winks are run ragged tbh, they need a break.

*Dier in this context means shit, because he is a shit player

Need Lucas and Lamela on, and Llorente needs to bugger off

by The Demon of Carthage Wed Jan 30, 2019 9:03 pm

I swear if Liverpool bottles the golden opportunity of going 7 points clear at the top, they deserve to be leapfrogged by City.
