I'd say he's been our player of the year. I think a fair few of us worried that we'd seen the best of him after last season, but he's mostly been back to his best this season and has led the team brilliantly. Anyone calling him out now is surely just venting out of frustration at the team's current form and results.

I think that's beyond doubt, to be honest. 

A few shouts for Mac Allister, aside. 

I think we should prioritise scoring some goals, Thursday seems a good place to start. I think at the start of the season there was a thread/discussion on expectations and I said top 4, Europa and good run in the cups. I'd still be delighted with that.

Hats?

In at least one of them, surely.

Chicken Kiev?

Too soon.

Btw, if I just inadvertently suggested that having gravy with fish and potato-based sides would be absurd, I apologise for letting my southerness show. You weirdos.

Not just any roast, a roast with two frozen burgers as the focal point. 

burgers? Are you sure?

Might be chicken cutlets or something. But looks breaded to me. Surely fish is a step too far in this situation even for CD...

Israelis are not all jews and not all jews are Israeli. Not sure how Israeli voting patterns can be used to excuse comments about the "victimhood" of people over the course of hundreds of years. 

Riley's a fucking idiot by the way. "I wasn't using prejudice to assign blame for an unfolding tragedy before knowing all the facts, I was just deflecting attention from said tragedy to fearmonger about potential tragedies that I actually would (potentially) care about".

Great, that's all absolutely fine and perfectly normal then...

edit: and totally believable, of course.

Sarri, quit his job after the announcement to sort things out and prepare. He's going to scare some performances out of them.

When it matters? 

I guess it's not mattered in the last 29 years then. 

Our season fucked, another year for the cheat and chiefs fail to keep up in the second half. If the Lakers give up home court advantage against the pelicans later I'll have a full house...

We lost 3-0 and 1-0 at home right after, in a season where we were accumulating results at a very high clip.

 

Think what you want, the Quansah thing killed us.

Maybe if I hadn't watched those performances and the ones before where we threw away the fa cup and barely scraped passed SU I'd be convinced but I did so I know that's bollocks.

This season was a perfect mix of 19-20 and 13-14. Tremendous ability to get results and accumulated a bunch of points, while at the same time giving off the impression that it might not be sustainable.

 

And then also, the Quansah thing is the most obvious turning point in a season since Gerrard slipping. Something else probably would have sunk us anyway, but the parallel's are there.

Is it fuck. Our inability to finish simple fucking chances and our poor passing in general is an issue. Quansah was part of that, but there is no single "turning point".

We're even clearing the ball for them now.

No booking for Munoz there is appalling.

Yep definitely, he's not going to get injured this close to the end of the season.

Got the Olympics to think about...

Nice swinging elbow in the area there .

.

Mo shat out of that as well. 

This'll be for Jones, but it should be for Salah 

Relying on a well measured clipped pass behind the defence from ibrahima Konate there.

Except Mo. Lets hope we get a penalty 

Nothing Salah could possibly have done differently to get in some positions to score or help the side create such chances, of course. 

Mac Allister's got away with a lot of lax passes recently. Should be setting the tone in there

Uh oh, Trent in the house.

 

 

You missed the last few weeks?

I get Chris's view, really. If it weren't for Klopp leaving we'd probably be looking at this season as being a positive one in terms of a rebuild. Lots of young talent coming through, done well across multiple comps etc. It's only the announcement that turned the expectations to "you have to win things now". 

Don't get Chris' Trent comment though, we have been consistently conceding the kind of goals that were routinely blamed on him and he's not even been on the field. Bit harsh to throw shade at him now.

Think he'll take Endo off at half time. Probably for Gakpo. 

Maybe we should play the world class player that's on the bench.
