Saturday Nov 2: Villa 1 L 2 Fucking hell, why can’t we ever just win comfortably? Don’t get me wrong, I couldn’t be any more full of admiration for the stones these lads have, but we’re a great side that is capable of blowing teams away, so how about we start doing it so we don’t have to be put through the shredder every week? I’m not specifically just talking about today, as Villa aren’t a pushover and it was never going to be easy, but so many of our games are going down to the wire. It’s emotionally draining. And yet, we’re six points clear. These late goals are the difference between us and the rest. Games when you’re in trouble and in the past would have lost points, we’re somehow coming away with wins. The ‘lucky Liverpool’ shite that’s being thrown around though is laughable. How were we lucky today? If anything, we were fucking massively unlucky and had all the excuses we needed to justify dropping points. But we didn’t drop points because no matter what is thrown at them, no matter how many setbacks they run into, these lads aren’t phased by any of it and they just go out and win. There was nothing lucky about today. We battered Villa and although the goals came late there’s no doubt we deserved them. If VAR wasn’t the worst thing to ever happen to football we’d have been home and dry long before that anyway. The disallowing of Firmino’s goal was so staggering it was bordering on corrupt. I genuinely don’t know how that can be allowed to happen. Literally the only person on the planet who is saying that is offside is Martin Atkinson. I know the linesman flagged, but I bet when he saw the replay he knew he was wrong. That just leaves Atkinson in his own. Then there’s the handball that wasn’t given. This is exactly the kind of game you normally lose and everyone blames the officials. Not this team though. City won late too but Guardiola decided to talk about us again. In particular, he made reference to Sadio ‘diving’. Interesting. How did he know so quickly that Sadio had been booked today? They probably pay someone to keep an eye on us, the weird obsessed bastards. Who the fuck does this tit think he is though? Sadio isn’t the type to do this, but he should be demanding a public apology. Guardiola has essentially called him a cheat and questioned his integrity. I wouldn’t let it go if it was me, but Sadio will probably just laugh it off and won’t give it a second thought. The u23s won the mini derby today with a winner four minutes from time. Gotta love how these late goals are just a feature right throughout the club. The 18s have had a few this year too. Herbie Kane got this one and it was a cracker. Such a good player him, I can’t understand how he’s ended up stuck here when he’d walk into most teams outside of the Premier League. The other goal was scored by Tony Gallacher, who I’ll be honest, I couldn’t pick out of a line up even though he’s been here a few years. I’ve seen him play a fair few times but can’t ever remember anything about him, good or bad. He must be alright as he’s been kept on when loads of others have been released. Sunday Nov 3: More refereeing and VAR nonsense today and once again Martin Atkinson was involved. He was the on field ref this time, and managed to anger both Everton and Spurs. At least you can’t accuse him of favouritism this time. He’s an equal opportunities shitbird, I’ll give him that. I don’t blame him for sending off Son though, as I’d have done the same thing. Fuck him and his crocodile tears, he committed a petulant, snide foul and now he has to live with the consequences. VAR absolutely ruined this game for anyone inside the stadium though, and this is the thing that isn’t getting enough attention. If you’re at the game and VAR is getting involved, it basically just shits all over your match going experience, sometimes even when decisions go your way. It’s fucking horrible, there are long delays and they still end up with the wrong decision half the time. Fuck it off. Get rid. In other news today, fake news, David Silva is a doubt for next weekend. You know he’s nailed on to play. Same with that Rodri fella who is supposed to be out. Shit, I wouldn’t even be shocked if Sane and Laporte are back in time having been given some illegal, state of the art, miracle treatment. Don’t put anything past these fuckers, they’ll do anything to win. And why the fuck hasn’t Bernardo been dealt with yet? It was meant to be weeks ago. You watch, his hearing will be next week after they’ve been to Anfield. It’s fucking bullshit is what it is. Anyone else would have been banned by now. Something else I saw today and it’s really tickled me. Solskjaer has lost as many Premier Leagues as Klopp, despite being there less than a year and having played 104 games less. That’s one of the most incredible stats I’ve seen. I mean, yeah, United have been shite, but even so that seems mad doesn’t it? I mean who’d have thought that a guy who was out of his depth at Cardiff would do so badly at Manchester United? If only there had been some sort of sign? Monday Nov 4: Klopp hits back at slaphead in fine style. Initially he was taking the high road, defending Mané but saying he didn’t really want to get involved. Then just like that he drops a ‘tactical fouls’ reference in there. BOOM! I don’t think we’ve heard the last of this somehow, as they both have to do another press conference before the game, and then we’ll see what happens in the post game. Klopp and Guardiola have been rivals for some time but they’ve generally enjoyed a cordial relationship until now. I reckon it’s all gonna kick off though, and we might see some fireworks on the touchline this Sunday. Fucking hope so. Would love to see Kloppo sticking one on him. Can also see Hendo calling him a baldy cunt you know. I reckon Hendo hates him. Meanwhile, I’ve mentioned before how those Inside Anfield videos the club do are one of the highlights of the week after a home win. Well today they did one from Villa Park, which was equally good. The highlight was Virg walking down the tunnel at full time, recognising the LFC TV cameras and casually saying “it’s what we do”. Robbo’s “GET IN!” was ace too, as was Mings complaining to Hendo about him blocking him off at every set-piece and Hendo just looking at him like “so?”. The Champions League ones of these videos are shite though because for some reason they aren’t allowed into the tunnel. It’s our fucking tunnel, if we want to film in there we should be able to. Fucking UEFA throwing their weight around as usual. Tuesday Nov 5: L 2 Genk 1 Only thing that mattered was the result. The two games with Genk are the key to qualifying from the group. If you beat them twice you’ll probably go through. We’ve done that now, so if we beat Napoli we’re through and we can rest everyone for the final game. We were alright tonight but we missed too many chances and that made it a little more nervy than it needed to be. It feels like we win 2-1 every game at the moment. We don’t concede many goals but it seems to be one every game, and then we miss loads of chances and just about scrape the win. One day we’re going to score with virtually every chance and someone is getting smoked. Hopefully it’s this Sunday. Meanwhile the decision is in. No, not Bernardo’s ban, I told you that will be next week once he’s been allowed to play at Anfield. No, I mean the decision as to when we have to play Villa in the League Cup. Two games in 22 hours. How do we approach that? This is one of those scenarios where there is no right or wrong way to do it. I’ve got mates who would happily see us pull out of the world club thingy (in part because of where it is, and in part because they don’t think it means anything) while others want to win it and would sacrifice the league cup to do so. I’m in the latter camp, but I’m not really in favour of sending out a line up comprised entirely of kids and throwing them to the lions against Villa’s first team either. Wednesday Nov 6: So we’ve got more info on that clash of fixtures. Apparently anyone who is going to be involved in the world club cup needs to be over there three days BEFORE the first game and if they’re not, they can’t play. This is outrageous really and we should threaten to pull out unless they bend on that rule. Bottom line, they can’t have that competition without us, so what are they gonna do, say no? We should be allowed to play Origi, Keita, Milner, Ox, Shaqiri etc against Villa and let them join the squad late. Instead, we’ll have to take on Villa’s first team with our under 23 side. I’m not concerned about going out, but I don’t want to see the young lads get smacked around too much. Don’t forget, out best eleven needed two goals in the last few minutes to avoid losing at Villa Park. So Bernardo Silva’s ban. Still nothing. I’ve googled this and he was charged on October 2 and on the 9th he was given more time to respond. On the 21st he responded to the charge and here we are still waiting for the outcome, weeks later. Wonder how many palms City had to grease to put the ban on hold until after Sunday? This stinks but is anyone remotely surprised? Two goals and all smiles for Son tonight in the Champions League. Not bad for a fella so utterly distraught by what happened on Sunday that he needed counselling. Must be some counsellor that. Miracle worker. Thursday Nov 7: Guardiola tries to walk back what he said about Sadio, but he can’t because you can’t put that Genie back in the bottle. Doesn’t matter how complimentary he was in everything else he said about Mané and Liverpool, he made reference to ‘diving’ and you can’t take that back. The rest of what he said was lavish praise about how the late goals aren’t lucky and what a great team we are, but no-one is going to be arsed about reporting that when the real juice is the jibe at Sadio. Really hope Sadio gets a dodgy as fuck pen on Sunday now. They’re still crying about the coach too, the big fucking babies. Honestly, I’m embarrassed for them. Just because there was something on social media calling for fans to greet our coach and to bring pyro, they’re shitting themselves because they think that means their coach is gonna get Kopparberged again. If the social media post was calling for us to do their coach in then fair enough, but it was about greeting our coach, not theirs. Shithouses. If you’re scared then buy a dog. Friday Nov 8: Klopp has to answer questions about the coach thing. Fucking hell, City are just the absolute worst aren’t they? Bunch of scared little cryarses. Imagine if they’d had to play Galatasaray back in the day. They’d all be still be in counselling. Fucking bulbhead Kompany was whining about it too, saying he was on the coach when it was “bricked” and that moment put us at the top of their “want to beat” list. Yeah, how’d that work out for you? Tit. Not one single brick was thrown. There were a load of cans, some pint glasses and then the bottle that smashed the window. Fucking get over it, you bunch of massive quims. “Bricked” hahaha. Give them five years and they’ll be telling everyone we were lashing hand grenades and the bus blew up. I can’t stand Vincent Kompany. I hate his “fake nice guy” routine and I’m not falling for it. Loads of people think he’s sound, one of the good guys, but fuck him. I’m never wrong about this shit, and neither is my Mum and she hates him too. She probably hated him before I did actually. Vincent Kompany is a bad twat. Fuck him and his weird head. I wish he was here now so I could lash a can of Kopparberg at him. Or a brick. Meanwhile, there was a report today that we’ll be leading the fight to land Mbappe at the end of the season. The numbers quoted are utterly unrealistic. We won’t pay £200m and we won’t be paying him 600k a week. That doesn’t mean it can’t happen though, because Nike could well have a say in this. We won’t pay £200m (not would anyone else) but he’s only got two years left on his deal so we wouldn’t need to. We can’t pay Mbappe that kind of salary either, but Nike could, if it was worth their while having their number one footy player at their number one footy club. Mbappe at Liverpool would give them a licence to print money, so maybe they help to make it happen. I’m not saying they will, but I don’t think you can dismiss it that lightly either. And he defo wants to come here. You can just tell. He’s mates with LeBron, and LeBron was wearing his LFC cap when they met last summer. Don’t tell me that wasn’t deliberate FSG didn’t have LeBron working to make his stake in the Reds worth even more, because I won’t believe you. And Kloppo obviously knows him and his Dad well, which again tells me we could get him if the finances fell into place. This is happening. …..and that was the week that was
