Don't like banging on about it but the UEFA team of the year. Someone copy and paste the piece on BBC about Salah. Third on player of year, not in team. Votes not counted and yet some are from players who say they never voted are. Stinks

I wouldn't of had Salah in last year.

Imo Mane was their best attacking outlet. Realistically hard to not pick Ronaldo and Messi. Leaves one spot..
 
Front three weren’t the shockers even though I think Mane should have been in there

For me it was having - Marcelo , Ramos and Modric in there and squeezing in De Ligt ar right back ?!?

My FIFA team from last year

Alisson

TAA
Laporte
VVD
Robertson

De Jong
Fernandinho
B Silva

Hazard
Messi
Mane

only 5 liverpool players? surely you can do better than that lol

With four of them from the best defence in Europe last year that won the CL - who would you have instead of the 5 I picked ?

lets be real here, you won the cup on the night but were on a par to several other sides in europe (dont forget you werent even the best side in your own league), do you really think you had almost half the out and out best players in their positions across Europe?

you really think TAA was the best right back in Europe? (as you know i dont think he was the best in the prem!) decent prospect playing in a good team yes, best in europe not for me! In his place Id probably have someone like Kimmich

Robertson had a cracking season, was he better than Alaba or Marcelo, not fior me.

Cant argue with VVD, gets in everyones team of the year!

Alisson was one of a handful of decent keepers, if you hadnt won the CL wouldnt even be discussed for team of the year imo

Mane decent year but not in the best 3 attacking players by quite a long way for me (wouldnt get in a top 3 in the prem let alone Europe again)


Surely if you had 5 of the best players in their position in Europe, plus Salah, plus Firminho etc youd have won the prem league by 20+ points?

I guess we will have to disagree

In regards the GK - difference between Ederson and Alisson paper thin ,

RB - with a lot of the European football not on Sky etc can only go by what I saw in the CL and Kimmich wasn’t great in the games in saw and against us - TAA needs to mature in regards his defending but going forward - no better imo

LB - I see Robbo as the best left back in Europe , both going forward and defending

Mane - he had more than a decent year , he was huge for us last year , golden boot , and some crucial goals in the CL

All five were voted into the CL team squad of the year - Alisson GK of the year , TAA & Robbo 3rd and 4th respectively in the Defender of the year and Mane 2nd in the Forward of the year
And I think 4 of them were in the Prem Team of the year with Alisson missing out

Of course they were, because the way these sides are constructed are massively overly biased to the teams that win the trophy, doesnt make them right. If you genuinely believe those 5 are the best in their position in Europe, plus Salah, there must be some almighty passengers in the other 5 to not win the premier league! the truth is as always somewhere in between :)

We are talking performances throughout the year here and not their ability - so yes you would expect the winners to be in there because they have performed better than others.

Blimey & you called Tashy bitter 🙈😂😂😂
 
Let's face it, the CL final should have been Barca Vs Ajax anyway, by far the best two teams in Europe last season imo. Barca thought it was job done after the first leg and never showed up at Anfield, and the other semi, well that was insane and Ajax should have won by a country mile.
So by my logic there shouldn't be any Liverpool players in team of the year 😅
 
The fact he had the players vote shows just how weak he is.
Tbf many managers now say they don't see the captain as too important a role.

Southgate has mentioned it many times. Not many clubs have a Gerrard/Nolan anymore. So maybe asking the players who they respect for leadership isn't a bad idea.

thats great up to the point where the squad still has a distinct shortage of leaders and theres rumoured to be a split in the dressing room, let alone choosing a guy most wouldnt have in their starting XI :(

a gerrard or a nolan? id rather have an Adams or a Viera plse :)
