Are you saying that your entire point is based around a bizarre hypothetical in which players would know they would lose beforehand? Are you okay?

nsr Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 Lolverpool supporters seem to operate under the delusion that because they won several league titles many years ago, the league title now somehow belongs to them in perpetuity. England have had the same delusion since 1966. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was Jurgen Klopp putting crushing disappointment to one side in order to pay tribute to the Premier League champions. “Congratulations for Manchester City, it's important to say that,” was how the Liverpool boss kicked off his post-match press conference after Sunday's 2-0 win over Wolves at Anfield. “They played an incredible season. We did as well but they won it so congratulations to Pep ( Guardiola ) and all the people at City.” His players followed suit on a day when City's 4-1 triumph at Brighton ensured they pipped Liverpool to the title by a solitary point. Left-back Andy Robertson told the assembled media: “We have just fallen short to a world-class team. To go 14 games without dropping a point is unbelievable. Fair play to City. The way they have gone about their business this season has been a joy to watch.” PFA Players' Player of the Year Virgil van Dijk added: “Congratulations to City, they deserved it by one point. City were just a tiny bit better than us.” Liverpool showed respect in abundance – something sadly lacking from City's celebrations that same evening. The footage which emerged online on Tuesday was so shameful you felt it simply had to be fake. Surely, they wouldn't stoop that low? Sadly, it's genuine. City's players were filmed mocking Liverpool as they passed the trophy around the plane flying them back to Manchester from the south coast. To the tune of the Kop anthem 'Allez Allez Allez', they sang the version chanted by City fans in recent months. 'All the way to Kiev, to end up in defeat, crying in the stands and battered on the streets, Kompany injured Salah, victims of it all, Sterling won the double, the Scousers won **** all....' Many believe 'battered on the streets' is a sick reference to the attack on Sean Cox prior to the Champions League semi-final against Roma at Anfield last April. City supporters are adamant it refers to the assaults on Liverpool fans before the final in Kiev but either way it's disgusting. The same goes for Guardiola's men chanting about Vincent Kompany leaving Mohamed Salah writhing in pain after the X-rated lunge which should have resulted in a red card at the Etihad back in January. As for the reference to 'victims', the connotations of that word need no explanation. It's bad enough hearing it from rival fans but for fellow professionals to follow suit just beggars belief. A joy to watch on the field over the past nine months, City have let themselves down badly off it. It's a club which seems to have some strange obsession with Liverpool. City finally broke their silence on Wednesday morning but their statement only served to pour fuel on the fire. “The song in question, which has been a regular chant during the 2018/19 season, refers to the 2018 UEFA Champions League final in Kiev,” it read. “Any suggestion that the lyrics relate to Sean Cox or the Hillsborough tragedy is entirely without foundation.” No apology, no show of contrition. So chanting about fans getting 'battered on the streets' in Ukraine last May is okay? And celebrating the fact that Kompany left Salah writhing in pain is fair game? That galling footage and City's lamentable response to it is a reminder that Sheikh Mansour's petrodollars can pay for most things but you can't buy class. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eta, after the break we get the thoughts of revered Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher on what its like to be really classy.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
