  1. People will always say we need more and better players. Even City with their strength of squad could not maintain a 4 trophy challenge and they would swap the League Cup in a heart beat to still be in the CL. Klopp was never going to build his team and squad overnight but I do not think he is that far off what he sees as a very good squad. I do not think we need massive changes and think people expecting that will be massively disappointed in the summer. We have been massively unlucky with injuries coming at the wrong time if there ever is a wrong time. Our style of play and closing opponents down quickly is always going to result in some injuries. What seems to get overlooked is that it is Klopps methods and players that have got us to a 5-2 semi final first leg lead. Just read that again 5-2 in the semi final first leg. I would have given my only remaining bollock to have that at the beginning of the season. And finishing in the top 4 is still in our own hands. Todays result was disappointing but in a way we played within ourselves. Meanwhile Roma went for it in their game and played the last 30 minutes with 10 men. None of the goals they scored today will help them on Wednesday. Aint life a bitch.
  2. What is more important Wednesday or the fight for the top 4 cup. Given where we are it has to be Wednesday night for me.
  3. 6 points behind and we currently have a +17 goal difference advantage over them.
  4. Final score Roma 4-1 Cheivio Verona who also missed a pen else it would have been 4-2. Bring em on.
  5. Roma running themselves to exhaustion 4-0 up against Chievio Verona and had Jesus sent off before the hour.
  6. The ref gave them 1 goal with the pen. You really do talk rubbish.
  7. Jon Moss showing his utter incompetence. Again.
  8. Roma 1-0 up against ChievioVerona. That is piss poor by Swansea.
  9. One of my muslim mates says they can drink water and eat bread during the daylight hours during Ramadam. I guess it is how strictly they follow their religion.
  10. We played those dregs of the league as you call them either side of the CL semi final 1st leg. That makes the CL semi 1st leg the most important game as far as I am concerned. One of those dregs have actually won away a Newcastle today and beat United before they played us. You are entitled to your opinion but I just think you are one massive wind up merchant. Whatever floats your shit I suppose.
  11. Well a bit of a disappointing result although I would have taken a draw before kick off with everyone coming through unscathed. Could have been different though if Mo had of buried that one on the first 5 minutes when he was put clean through. As it turns out that was just about the only clear cut chance we had. Some other points Gomez had a poor game and his head seemed to go when a few nobs in the crowd got on his case. I was less than impressed with van Dijks as far as Gomez went as well. In the second half when gomez could not make any progress down the right he passed it back to van Dijk who promptly returned the ball to him. Gomez gave it back only for van Dijk to give it straight back when it was clear gomez could not go down the wing. Everyone held their breath when TAA stayed down after a collision with the keeper. some anxious moments until he got up. Ings was industrious again and was unlucky to be flagged offside when he got the ball in the net. I am not saying Ings was not offside but I was not as certain as the lino that the ball had not come to him off a Stoke player. Perhaps tv has cleared it up now but in the ground and with no replay. There was an even bigger collective holding of breath just before half time when Henderson went down clutching his foot after a kick by a Stoke player. Fortunately he got up andcame out for the 2nd half. Once again I thought the ref let the ale house team get away with too much before he booked crouchie for a rather tame foul. He had been warned about Stokes approach when Lambert gave it large before the game saying they were not going to be shrinking violets in the game. The players were convinced they should have had a pen late on. We are just not getting the shouts of these right now. Last week against West Brom when Ings was clattered in the box then the ref on Tuesday giving a rather lame one against Milner. I did not see the incident clearly so cannot say but all the players in the box and there was a lot of them shouted to a man. Play on waved the ref. So Stoke stopped us scoring which might give Roma heart. There again they did not score and apart from our own mix up giving them the odd chance did not really look like scoring. We have bigger fish to catch on Wednesday. I am still confident and once that is out the way can smash our remaining games in the league. Heard Klopp say Mane was rested today due to a slight knock but will be fit for Wednesday. If everyone else is fit Allez allez allez. Oh atmos was utter shite today.
  12. They were consistent then until this season then. Bunch of slackers.
  13. Basically this. Lallana has had an absolute nightmare with injuries although I do not think he has done himself any favours when coming back and throwing himself about only to get injured yet again.
  14. What a star. Lucas has helped his former club Liverpool ahead of their Champions League semi-final clash with Roma next week. The Brazilian left Anfield in 2017, signing for Roma's bitter rivals Lazio, but it seems he has remained a Red at heart, as his latest gesture proves. Liverpool take a 5-2 advantage with them to Italy for the second leg tie, and will use Lazio's Formello training ground before and after the match. According to Sky in Italy, Lucas acted as an "intermediary" to make the agreement possible, to ensure the Liverpool team are in tip-top shape for the most important game of their season to this point.
  15. He bagged 2 goals against United when it looked like we were going to get thumped.
  16. Trent in midfield not sure. I think if he is playing him he would play him at RB instead of Gomez myself and even that depends if Clyne is not available. Could see Woodburn potentially playing myself.
  17. Well anyone who would slate Mo Mane and even Can for observing their religious needs are complete intolerant nobheads then arent they.
  18. Strange question. No I did not have that pleasure. Did you.
