Udinese thump Roma 4-0.

 

It was beautiful.

Ramsdale gets worse every time I see that first goal.  Why the fuck is he slowly falling to his left, leaving the entire goal exposed?

Because a shit goal keeper who’s gone under the radar last season whilst Arsenal were shit. Now they being seen more his weaknesses are more obvious?

The problem with the awakening Balrog a.k.a. The Manure, is that as they gain confidence, their opponents lose it - as witnessed today. 
Anybody who doesn’t think Utd can beat City right now is deluded. City just failed to beat Villa.

I’m fucking pissed off with that result today. I wanted Arsenal to seriously dent their (Utd’s) confidence which is gathering real momentum. United leaving us trailing in their excrement was not part of my planned season’s entertainment. Debut goal for Antony?

 

Fuck me a nightmare is unfolding before our eyes.

Slab head will be back next week and normal business will be resumed. He was on the pitch seconds and he was giving away stupid free kicks. Teams will just a target him, because he's a player who's gone in the head.

Will he be back next week, what makes you think that?

 

Unfortunately Ten Hag seems to have developed this revolutionary tactic of identifying players that are causing the issues, dropping them and replacing with players that are better or fit the team/managers style of play. Genius, who'd have thought that such an out there idea would work!

Why would they put him back in the team, is the other cunt out injured?

That little Argentine shit head went off with a thigh or groin injury. It didn't look minor, he signaled the bench right away.

It's been obvious all along that Pickdale is shit.

It's certainly a magic trick they are running considering they pay about 70m per year in interest payments on the aquisitional debt and another wedge on dividends. In the mean time, we can't afford anything. 

Aren't we only slightly behind them and yet somehow we appear to have barely two pennies to scrape together?

The trend in England is for Tik Tok goalies.

I thought Pope was different until the other night..

Putting emotion aside and I hate saying it but a Manc win or draw was probably best for us.  We've had the worst start for years but we're still just six points off top and if we can't overtake the Mancs from here we're not winning anything anyway. 

[bizzle10]

It’s  mad that we are only 6 points from the top considering how average we been so far 

[Barrington Womble]

It's only 6 games. So on a season that'd be a 38 point gap. We've been poor and we've got some catching up to do and we're not looking like shaking this poor form off. The way things are now, I'd be made up if we could get to the world cup just 5 points behind city.

It's perfect. Still hate to see them winning anything though. Nice to see Arsenal brought down to earth a bit as well. Win win really.

Gee, people get carried away with opposition teams having a little spurt of form. I get that it's made worse by Liverpool's current form, but come on! 

 

Never forget Rodgers had the reds on a 13-game unbeaten streak, collecting 33 from 39 points. Not even half a season later, he was gone.

was it really only half a season? i thought he fucked an entire season after that replacing suarez with balotelli and lambert, we got dicked 6-1 at stoke at the end of it and then wobbled into the next season because rodgers blamed it all on his best mate and fired him as some sort of fresh start.

That's right.

 

It was October 2015 he was sacked & Klopp came in.

Yep, it's a real positive actually, given the performances, I would say the only highlights so far from players have been the ones we may not have expected much from, i.e. Elliot, Firmino, Carvalho (from bench) and maybe Gomez. Think Diaz has been decent also but does seem to drift out of games. Majority can surely only get better...

 

I wouldn't be resting Trent, I'd be sending him out to find his form...

He should have gone after that result. I know Klopp wasn't available then but that was was unforgivable. The performance in Gerrard's last game at Anfield against Palace was equally as pathetic.

Yup, there was a game against us where he was woeful but sky kept creaming themselves over camera saves where he palmed everything back into dangerous areas.

 

Engkish players always get vastly over rated right enough.

The 2 subs coming on for Rashford and Martinez were both stripped and ready before the above 2 went down injured. They are no more injured than Villa's keeper who Mings reminded was injured straight after Villa scored.

Do you not think? I thought Martinez looked in a bit of trouble. We'll see on Thursday I suppose.

I'd put the chances of him being injured at somewhere between nought and zero. He won't play Thursday anyway.
