Pos Pep was so busy getting wound up by a couple of mouthy ex United players this week that he forgot to tell his players not to take David Moysie lightly smh. :brickwall:

Can see Stevie Me and his boys aiding Liverpool in getting one step closer to completing football now, really.

Have Barca just signed a nervous wreck in Christensen?? Always pulls out of games due to stomach cramps

He pulled out "despite not being injured". Doesnt want to play probably because he's gone already Laughing

He's only 26 and comes on a free, could be a bench option and we could still make a profit on him since he's young. But I dont think the aim for him is to be a starting CB since Xavi wants Kounde or Koulibaly.

by halamadrid2 Mon May 16, 2022 9:49 am

I was just reading about it and apparently this is normal for him to do. He has pulled out from multiple games before

Maurizio Sarri in 2019: 'You know very well that Christensen on matchdays always has stomach ache.

a whole professional getting the shits before each game?? unbelievable, get the man a psychologist

I thought it’s been known for a few years that Christensen suffers from anxiety.

The only problem is why does he think going to Barca will help that? Barca fans post monkey emojis in Dembele’s instagram comments when he misses a clear chance. The Barca fanbase and Spanish media are way more toxic than the English one IMO. Laughing

Honestly think Chelsea’s squad rebuild over the last few years has been amusing.

They went from a team with warriors like Ballack, Essien, Lampard, and Drogba to anxiety stricken Christensen, Fortnite nerd Werner, scrawny CM Jorginho, and a tik tok boy in Havertz. Laughing

I mean they won the CL so I guess it doesn’t matter, but they honestly don’t have the fear factor they once did. Laughing

No pls I seen him few times over last few season n he looks crap. We already had Eric we dont need another :facepalm:

There used to be a goalie, Glenn Hall, in the NHL (hockey) way back in the 50s and 60s that had anxiety so bad that he vomited before every game and yet he was one of the best.

We might find the answer to who is the bigger bottler

by CBarca Mon May 16, 2022 10:02 pm

That was one of the most impotent matches from a supposed top 4 team in a crucial game I think I've ever seen.

Newcastle dominated them from start to finish. That should have been 3-0 or 4-0 at least. Could have been 5, even.

This isn't over...Spurs still need to win or draw and we all know their bottling tendencies but that was atrocious from Arsenal and Artbeta

Arsenal died after Wenger for me.

The league was long gone when we didn't sign a Diaz in summer window. So many games come to my mind where the result would have been different.

Same. Fartetaball is a cuckold version of Zizouball. I miss the times where Arsenal were always the protagonist. Now Arsenal are happy to sit back against Newcastle and let them have the ball. This is not Arsenal.

Klopp has turned to his full on hipster mode against Southampton game Laughing

what a BS team that is !

by The Demon of Carthage Tue May 17, 2022 7:57 pm

I guess he knows that the chance of the bald fraud dropping points at home against Villa is close to 0, and so instead of risking his best players in a losing battle, he's decided to keep them fresh and ready for the final.

by Thimmy Tue May 17, 2022 8:01 pm

Redmond scores for Southampton. Might force Klopp to sub in some of his starters, after all.

- Minamino equalizes. Looks like he doesn't have a lot of bench options, anyway.

by Myesyats Tue May 17, 2022 8:13 pm

Aguero-esque goal from Minamino

by Winter is Coming Tue May 17, 2022 8:34 pm

Southampton have won 1 game in their last 10. Klopp knew he can rest players here. Once Diaz and Thiago get on it’s game over.

That Diaz dude is a joy to watch. Scary good.

by Helmer Tue May 17, 2022 9:45 pm

So we did it again somehow, Klopp had to make 9 changed and so many chances were missed. Can't believe we came this far in the league.

by BarcaLearning Tue May 17, 2022 10:37 pm

Battle of the eternal bottlers Arsenal n Spurs for top 4 every yr has been a feature for EPL, its just part of it? Razz

Will always remember that yr with that mysterious food poisoning incident...

He's probably going to catch an FA charge from this, but he really shouldn't:

I like how homeslice was doing all the backing away from Viera, you know, "old man" Viera who probably could still bench a lot more than him.

The FA would probably charge him though, sadly.
