When they said it was called the "wall of sound" I just burst out laughing. Aye, famous for it right enough. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

accies1874 Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 That goal's a bit tough on Brighton, especially Duffy and Dunk. Spurs had created very few good chances. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PSG were £730m-ish I think. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kuro Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 1 hour ago, JMDP said: When did Chelsea spend that on a goalkeeper? The reference to Klopp's spending came from his own hypocrisy (he didn't want to spend that money and get success that way apparently) and Rab saying they never spent to City levels last year, when they actually outspent city by £100m last summer. He's become the chequebook manager he said he wouldn't be, hasn't won a trophy yet but still has all the hipsters frothing about him. The facts are he hasn't won a trophy in seven years. He has spent an utter fortune yet people suggest he is working some miracle to have Liverpool in these positions. They should be in those positions given their spend. It would be disgraceful if he had them nowhere near the title again. Being in the mix is a bare minimum. Look at what Simeone has done in the last seven years, winning trophies against giants with nowhere near the budget whilst Klopp has returned nothing. He must deliver at least one trophy this year. Anything else is a clear failure. That's just nonsense, and typical talk of a football fanboy. Its not as simple as that, if he gets 95 or 97 points and misses out on the title by a point or two its utterly idiotic to describe that as failure. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The OP Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 Genuine question (although maybe the wrong forum in which to ask it) - would real Man Utd supporters from Manchester generally prefer Liverpool or Man City to win the league? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In work so can't really watch videos without giving away that I'm fannying about. My suspicion is that the ones who live in Manchester would prefer Liverpool because they need to put up with slaggings from City supporters but the ones who live outwith would prefer City to win because they view Liverpool as bigger rivals, will know more Liverpool supporters than City supporters and will be preoccupied with holding the record for total number of titles won. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ira Gaines Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 Let's face it. It's only really the domestic cups where Liverpool have really underperformed this season. Are people really going to be looking at a team with 90+ points in the league and going out in the semi finals to Barca or potentially losing a final against what will clearly be a very good side, and say "oh well, that's not good enough" and be serious about it? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
