Liverbirdie
Ryder Cup Winner
We have an attacking prowess that could finish in the top 3, we have defensive weaknesses that mean we could finish 6-7.
Not being in Europe should mean we are somewhere around 3-5th.Who knows, though?
havent seen much of Karius, but if he comes in and is any good. The. The top 4 may be an outside bet, top six more likely.
ATM, even this early Liverpool ship too many goals for me and their one proven scorer isn't firing yet.
Theyve had some good results so far and beaten teams considered rivals. But I still think the finances of Chelsea, city and Utd along with the dependable arsenal and improving Spurs will have Liverpool contesting for the final europa spot.

Are you serious that you really think that Liverpool can win the league? Or is that just the blind optimism that comes from supporting your team?

Yes.
keeping players fit is key to being successful. We've had a tough start to this season Spurs, Arsenal,Leicester, Chelsea and we've been the The better side in each of them.
The burnley result was a freak result but we need to stop making stupid individual mistakes because at the momment they're being punished.
There's no blind optimism here.

And Costa will play fairly won't he
Well why don't we try not kicking lumps out of him & see what happens?
Pretty much sums it up.
Really? Trolling again Phil?
Sadly we weren't even that good.
Spot on again. The only ray of light was that Luiz looked a better defender than the player that left, assuming that we actually bought him for defensive duties….. Worst thing about it was that we weren't so much outplayed as outfought and outworked, which is unforgivable. We were actually that bad that we made Mignolet look competent.

That didn't happen last night.
Costa gives it just as much as he gets it, he's hardly innocent.

It is a pretty big win to beat a team supposedly one of the favourites for the title on the home ground and there was some impressive performances from some players last night
Just smacks of sour grapes

Was it a big win or an easy win? I was really looking forward to a good game but... Liverpool played less rubbish than Chelsea.

And did he play fair? So thee's your answer then.
So it's everybody else's fault? Poor Costa :rofl:
Chelsea hardly had the ball in the final 3rd for him to get near our defence.

Would you have said the same had the result been the other way round?
Not many teams will got to Chelsea and dominate for as long as we did last night. Regardless of how poor Chelsea were, we were excellent and played some great stuff.

That'll be the post that you haven't requoted then………..
Sour grapes? You couldn't make it up. :rofl: We got exactly what we deserved out of that performance, but we are nowhere near favourites for the title, we still have too much of last season's dead wood. I'd like to know who has supposedly made us favourites for the title, but we are nowhere near that and hanging your hat on that performance as a pretty big win is utterly laughable.
I acknowledged that you completely outworked & outfought us, yet as utterly pathetic as we were, we got one back and were more likely to get an equaliser that you were to close it out as a good team should have done. Against a team one of your fellow Scousers accurately describes as mid table.
Am I unhappy? Yes, but with my own team's performance. Am I quaking in my boots at the second coming of the mighty Liverpool? Oh do get over yourself Phil, your lot weren't that good.

Chelsea were gifted that goal and I can't remember them having another clear chance. Only a great save from Courtois stopped us from " closing it out as a good team should". I'd say we closed the game out rather professionally but then that's only my opinion not a fact.

You''re not really any further forward than last seasons results against the same teams, you beat Chelsea and Leicester and drew with Spurs, 2 points gained from Arsenal but 3 dropped at Burnley so you could be 5 points better but instead 1 worse off.
Think you''ll fighting 6th-4th but winners :rofl: :rofl:

Klopp has also had a pre season with the players and they look a lot fitter than this time last season.
