There's definitely been needle between the Anfield Wrap lot.    I'm sure Mel Reddy will be working on a piece about how everything will be great.

The ripple effect is right - the fact that a quality signing like Thiago ends up looking like others need to do his running for him, for example.   It's a total shitshow. (Yesterday was a tidy enough attacking performance but to ship three to a pretty timid United strike force... )   Unless Mo suddenly starts burying all of his chances and Mane joins him on the scoresheet, and we score our way out of trouble, I think we're fucked.   And I think the LFC response will be to try to sweep this season under the carpet. Which is quite a bit easier when you haven't got fans around to create a stir, agitate and make their feelings known directly.   We all sit at home, helplessly watching the game with our TV dinners on our laps, while these arseholes fiddle on the sparkling decks of their you-know-whats.    

....and knew how to get us to a Europa final.....   My gut feeling, is that Lovren would be a better fit now having continued to learn under Klopp. However, it’s just musing. The reality at the moment is far worse.

You expect a year in the prediction too? Let's get Jota, van Dijk and Gomez back before the end of 2022.   As for the Spurs match, we're getting snotted.

What year?
