Having a George Michael afternoon while cooking the Sunday bait. Absolutely amazing musician.

I don't care how often George Michael dyed his hair, how many records he sold to knicker wetters, who he slept with or what he did in public khazis. As a human being he was immense, he championed what is good in human nature and he deserves respect for that. I really liked him. And I'm sorry that he's dead, the world is a lesser place for his passing and society could do with plenty more of his like. I'm just sorry he didn't have a more dignified death, he deserved better.

If you’ve not made that up, you weird bastard, I hope you fire bombed the place

one goal, two cups

Oh no they’re not. Butties, if you insist

It’s because Mo’s was a pace goal and they don’t count.

Couldn't agree more on Hendo, Dave. Brilliant performance and that celebration... fucking hell, it’s had me welling up like a fucking tart every time I’ve watched it over the last two days. Hope Kloppo gives him a run as an 8 because I think we need him, both in the team and in that position. Also, you’re spot on about the telly vs Anfield nerves thing. It’s exponentially worse watching it on the box. Horrible. But conversely, when Mo’s goal went in I celebrated more than I have anything while watching on the box since fuck knows when. These are great fucking times to be a Red. Roll on Tuesday.

Ive told Jurgen a million times to stop exaggerating

Apparently Pickford has already gone ahead and had 4 inches removed from each arm

Spoke to some couple before who wanted to do the Southport to Liverpool train pub crawl. Basically once you pass Waterloo the pubs dramatically drop in quality. This one is the Mayflower at the back of Bootle Strand. Utter shithole but the locals are friendly. My mate won a leg of lamb in a raffle there. It has tons of kids in there because their parents are too lazy to arrange childcare. It is also like a jarg San Carlo with pictures on the wall of celebrities who have visited there. They range from Stan Boardman, Ricky Tomlinson and weirdest of all, Fernando Torres. Dominated by a shite seventies tower block, Carling and Coors Light on tap and a lifesize dummy of Uncle Fester from the Addams family behind the bar. I'd be gutted if it ever got shut though.

I disagree 100% with your sentiment. Loads of teams are beaten before they start and have pretty much written the game off. And Klopp is on my side so there. *thumbs nose*

I won't ask you again.

What a massive gang of spineless quegs Arsenal are.

Yes. Yes they could.

This is TK's new pet project. Rodgers and Lucas have gone, so he needs to find a new also ran to hide behind and attack the fans vicariously through.

No worries mate, I just enjoy running through most games again and making a few gifs to post here. But thanks for the comment. I'm just like most on here. I'm desparate to see us win the league again, its been far too long.

All credit to Klopp. Friday he brings both Henderson and Milner on to change the game and we go on to win it. 5 days earlier, he takes the same pair off, to change the game and we go on to win it.

I can confirm that the pan is safely lodged up my arse.

Fair enough. Please tell me you rammed the pan up your arse before you left. I’m desperate to salvage what’s left of my weekend.

Citeh trying so hard to be a big club, and that will never happen despite the gallons of oil money sunk in to them. 20 years ago they were knocking about league 1. Ten years ago they were getting arse raped without lube against Middlesborough. All this talk of 'Klanfield', 'Dippers' etc is there way of building up a rivalry that frankly is no where near that of their red brethren in Salford, who from a league perspective are the only legitimate entity that can lord it over us . As much as I loathe United, I can respect the rivalry. I can't do it with this shower of cunts. Its not too dissimilar to the manufactured Chelsea rivalry under Rafa and Shitcoat. City may well win the title. It will mean little to their fans who can be barely arsed to attend a knockout Champions league game. Sure, they can stop us winning it and leave us to lament over a record points score for a second place team that would have otherwise seen us stroll to the title. But it will be hollow. The team that spends the most is generally expected to win. Sure, there will be life long city fans this will mean the world too. We will push them all the way. Or we win it. I remember the wank fest in 1992 when United won it after 26 years or however long it was, in the first season that football was rebooted by Sky. Teams and other supporters dont want to see us win out of spite. Fine, I dont care. We'll make the biggest fucking noise if it happens and every single last person is going to know about it. Football has become remarkably soul less over the last couple of decades as it becomes out of reach to the working class in terms of money and accessibility. Wouldnt have known there was a Champions League tournamnet in the last two seasons if we were not in it. As many fans as there are dont want to see us win would enjoy a Liverpool title win, because it will at least ignite aome genuine passion in Victory, last seen at Istanbul. Let's fucking do it Red Men. Stand on the oil barons tail long enough for them to yelp and we will finish them off.

Report by Dave Usher It seems like every week these lads are knocked to the canvas, and every week they just Tyson Fury the fuck out of the opposition and pick themselves up. We weren’t exactly down and out against Southampton but we were in real trouble. The lads are used to this now though, they know how to handle it. With ten minutes to go we were staring down the barrel of two dropped points. Yet again, these lads found a way to win. They’ve got balls of steel and if they win this title no team will ever have deserved it more. “Mentality monsters” Klopp called them. Imagine that. They’ve come a long way from the side that buckled in the 2016 Europa League Final, that’s for sure. They’re putting us through the shredder every week though aren’t they? They started this game terribly. Southampton were all over us and we struggled to cope with it. Part of it was how we approached the game, but it’s also about how teams seem to be super-motivated when they face us. Klopp had said prior to the game that teams wave the white flag against City and then produce the performance of their lives against us. He’s dead right, and I’m fucking sick of it. Southampton haven’t played like this all season, but we seem to get everybody’s best effort and that makes what these lads have done even more remarkable.

The Straight Story 7/10 Based on a true story, a man in his 70s in a small town in Iowa wants to go and see his brother who lives over 250 miles away in Wisconsin. His brother has had a stroke and he wants to make up with him while he still can. He's no car and very little money so decides to make the journey on a lawnmower. It's thought evoking and a bit of a tug on the old heartstrings and although very slow, still an enjoyable watch.

I fucking loved that hendo goal

Dee do doe dando don't dee doe

Have that you sign on singing cunts

I'll quite happily eat a plate full of Yorkshire puddings covered in gravy. Nothing else required.

Dave, why have you chalked off the 3rd goal we scored? You can't believe Hendo scored :P

More of a Carrick than Nicky Butt I'd say.

Leave No Trace - Low key drama with Ben Foster as an Iraq veteran with PTSD who lives a survivalist lifestyle in the woods of Oregon with his teenage daughter. Much like the director's previous film, Winter's Bone, this is a stripped down film with great cinematography and naturalistic performance; so much that Thomasin McKenzie's performance made me forget she was actress, she was superb. Very much the opposite of a flashy film, so it's not for everyone, but a small story told brilliantly. 9 out of 10.

Football is a business. Players come and go. Rarely, if ever are we in a situation where a great player can return in their prime. Usually we lose that player for good or they arrive back well past their best. This is one of those rare occasions.

Fucking Usher. Waltzes in, lobs hand-grenade, waltzes out. Fucking Usher.

It was Roast Beef Monster Munch, before they were taken over by Walkers. Massive hunks of roast beef flavoured corn snacks, chewed up and spat out in the general direction of stringvest.

Was driving round Halewood the other day and saw this place. Looks almost as bad as that place in Dundee. The Grenadier pub. They were advertising for weddings and christenings there. Imagine the fighting after a few drinks. Looks like a caravan from Rhyl has landed on there after a Hurricane.

He obviously significantly missed the Chelsea game in 2014 and here we are with another massive one in a title race. Wouldn’t have a problem with him playing in the more advanced role he did when he came on Friday, with Fabinho and Wijnaldum behind him. Worked well against Southampton and nobody else is making that spot their own. Would feel like another Origi finally making the situation with Everton right moment this season, if he could pick up where he left off in 2014 against Chelsea.

Never knew Hitler hated Hendo. Huge if true.

Yeah, I think both you and LFD do exactly that. You both get incredibly defensive when people rightly point out his limitation, you neg people who say anything negative about him - repeatedly - just like you did with Lucas. It's a weird fetish you have for certain players. I've pretty much taken the middle road with Henderson, that he is a solid professional, rarely controls a game but when he does he looks brilliant. He shouldn't, in my opinion, be Captain (for reason such as: he doesn't play all the time, doesn't lead by example very often on the pitch, and there are better candidates). There are as many people who do nothing but slate him as there are nothing but defend him. Most people are in the middle ground. It's nothing to do with people not knowing what they're talking about, they just disagree with you.

Reckon the fella who had to clean the loo after Darren Fletcher disagrees.

Well to be fair, there are some right moaning twats in our end, so maybe they deserve a shut the fuck up? At the end of the day, Klopp rates him(to a fault at times with all the players) and I guess thats all that matters. He'll still be captain next season as well and many will be up in arms about that.

He was just happy to score, poor cunt can't even do that without getting criticised.

I don’t think his celebrations were aimed at the fans. This line that ‘fans have been cunts to him’ is just nonsense. He was celebrating, that’s all, he wants to win the league, that’s clear.

The last time Pancake Day fell on a Tuesday was 1977.

I bet Greedo got shot in there.

They wrote 30 M minimum if I remember correctly. Depay is having a mare this season. Hes good one gave out of five, he would nit cope with our standard , abs he does not fit in with the Klopp way. Pepe on the other hand is the perfect option. Lille will cash in on him because they need money and that is their business model. He’s good , fast , consistent.

Thank fuck Hitler killed himself when he did.

Pepe would be the best fit out of almost anybody for me. He'd basically occupy the same positions as Salah (right wing but has the ability to play up front). I've watched him a lot and I think he'd also be a great fit for the Premier League. He's fast and he has the physicality and ability to protect the ball. To me he's similar to Salah and Mane in that the technique is not always clean and it's inconsistent, but he has match-winning quality and defenders shit their pants around him. He's also one of those players that is visibly demanding of his teammates on the pitch and demands excellence. He has ego in a good way and his teammates seem to respect him. The Lille team he plays in has been one of the best counter-attacking teams around this season and it's mostly because of him. It's really just a matter of can he replicate some of his end-product in England that he's shown in France and could he establish himself in our attack and become a legitimate option, because it's not easy with the quality we already have.

I don't respect United. They're cunts

I was and still am a massive fan. I met him a couple of times in the 90's. One time he was running late for a flight and I asked him for an autograph but didn't have a pen or paper (which didn't help)... even though the Virgin Atlantic staff were telling him to hurry up he said... "I'm sure the flight won't leave without me..." and said to me, let's go over to the check in desk, I'm sure they'll have a pen and paper over there.. We walked over and he signed an autograph for me.. well he had to do it twice because the first time he made it out to Naz rather than Nav....!!! A genuinely lovely bloke and because he wasn't a Tory cunt and had plenty to say about Thatcher he never got recognised for his service to music or his charity work when others have got Knighthoods for doing fuck all... Him helping the Miners strike, doing a free concert for 2000 NHS staff who looked after his mum when she had cancer. Gutted he's passed with so much more to give. Hopefully he finds peace as he never really recovered from the death of his mum... RIP George.
