Brighton (A) - Premier League - 28/11/20 - 12:30

[Jimmy Hills Chin]

The only thing worth watching the other games for now is to see how many injuries other teams get. This league will probably be decided by them.

And then he comes out with a cheap snivelling shite like this....Of course football isn’t like the sacrifice made by others but I guess if he wants to come out with classless shite then it’s easy to say that  when you’ve got two highly paid jobs when millions are struggling 
 

@Gary Lineker

Excellent by @TheDesKelly putting the broadcasting argument to Jürgen Klopp when it’s clearly a Premier League issue. It’s a tough year for everyone but footballers having to play lots of football matches, risking a muscle strain, is nothing like the sacrifice made by others.

I can only wonder how often that cunt's got on his high horse on Twitter alone with his well-honed righteous indignation at things that pale into insignificance compared to 'the sacrifices made by others'. Yeah, let's stop complaining, everyone, 'cos some cunt in Africa's on the verge of starvation so his children can get fed. 

 

Fucking overly-large-eared-moralising faux do-gooder, taking his overly-large coin from a telecoms giant and the publicly-funded BBC, talking about the sacrifices people make like he's some world authority on the subject having put up a refugee for a couple of weeks in his overly-large house.

Ha ha. I’m thinking of self-publishing my life story.

Let me know if it's available to pre-order.

He's way way out of his depth here. 

 

We should try and move him on in January.

Every substitute attacker we have should go next summer. Outside of Jota, none of them contribute anything and Shaqiri's availability is comical.

I'm not expecting the perfect game, but if you perform better the chances are the dodgy decisions become moot!

They played as well as they could in the circumstances. You get shit decisions whether you play well or not.

He’s not very good, but we need every one, let’s keep hil.

This thread was descending quickly until I read about Tony's book. 

 

Can't wait to ask the cunt where my book is.

Who will have absolutely been hand picked for the excruciating PR exercise. Gary Lineker is a seriously bad dickhead.

I wouldn't sell anyone in Jan unless replace them in Jan...we need every fit body we have.

 

But summer, yeah, move him and Origi on and probably Shaqiri too as just never fit.

There is no point getting into a war of words with BT and Sky, especially in post match interviews. It's a distraction we don't need. Just give yes no answers from now on. That hurts them more whilst fulfilling your contractual obligations.  They will love the little mini shitstorm they've created today. Don't rise to it again this year.

Aye - If that pen hadn't been given we would have all been saying job done, another game when miles from best and ravaged by injuries, but 3 pts and been happy.

And we need to spend big on a first choice centre half in January, whoever is to be Virgil's long term partner, needs to be bought

The scheduling could be sorted in one fell swoop, no shitty international football until the season is over!

I really hope your right honestly I do but what I'm seeing happening on the pitch is making me think otherwise why have we been on the wrong side of so many decisions

A lot to be said for that approach but far easier said than done when you are an emotional heart on your sleeve personality like Klopp.

Yeah, no point in waiting if a deal can be done. Even if we can’t get our first target, we probably still need to bring someone in.

Agreed. One word answers and not giving them the time of day would annoy them far more than Klopp calling them out.

You saw that when Klopp refused to get involved with the VAR decisions so Kelly dragged Henderson into it as it didn’t suit the agenda ....

I can’t blame Klopp rising to it as he must be pissed off with the injuries we’ve had so far this season

Sky, BT and BBC will put whatever spin on it whatever he does.

 

Has no one seen the pattern here? They all fawn up to the top managers when they come to England. 'Isnt he wonderful? Like a breathe of fresh air, tells it like it is.' Then he's narky sod, blaming the broadcasters, dickhead journo's Ive never heard of before in the press telling him to stop whinging because there's other more serious matters right now. So why you dear nomark journo writing a fucking article in the paper instead of volunteering on the front line?

Injuries are a problem but the issue for a  while has been the drop-off in quality from our first XI.

 

Minamino, Ox, Keita (even when they're not injured) are shite, Origi is shite, Adrian is shite. Not just "comparatively poor", I mean absolutely pointless putting them in the team, empty pitch, waste of wages. 

 

They should all be shipped out at the end of the season and replaced with at least two world class ones, or one if Jones looks like coming good. Would rather have two boss players than 15 shite ones.

 

Milner is older than God, two centre half partners to Big Virg make Darren Anderton look Rambo.

 

Jotta is the only good "backup player" we seem to have on our books, and he should be one of the first names on the team sheet now.

I like Ben White, I can see why we have been watching him.

We can't have world class backups and have depth at the same time, though. If you look at a team like Bayern last season, they actually had quite a thin squad, but almost every player was very good. It's hard to do better than having 4 top class attackers and 4 top class midfielders, which is what we have. The likes of Origi and Minamino can be replaced by decent youngsters at this point.
