The Footie Thread

Oh the shame, not only losing to yernited but finishing below palace in the league .
Bye bye de Zerbi , good riddance.

What are the expectations for any new manager considering the last two seasons where despite multiple times selling your best players you managed to achieve your best finish for decades and got into Europe


Guess it’s the same question to West Ham fans

What are the expectations for Lopetegui when looking at the last 3 season from Moyes ? Is it to get into the Top 4 and win more trophies

Don’t let Phil catch you saying things like that!

You will get the old “Careful what you wish for” thing…

Don’t you know that smaller clubs shouldn’t have ambitions or aspirations?


Know your place young Radd, the top tables not for the like of thee and me.

Edit… blimey Phil was too quick!

last 2 seasons finished 5th & 3rd
Sorry but what am I missing here?

Only 2 other managers have won the PL and Champions League with the same club.
You're welcome to be obsessed

As Carragher and others said - it’s not always about the end , it’s the journey that matters

I think he is the second most successful Liverpool manager behind Paisley in terms of trophies won , his win percentage is the highest

Think 3 of the other seasons his points total would have won the league outside city’s win - 92 and 97 points were two season that’s were remarkable

This just speaks volumes of the man

Ha ha brilliant.

Ooops I actually meant to reply to the Ederson red wine post

 

[clubchamp98]

Thought the sending off a tad harsh considering they have let them go for months (inconsistent)
Looked bad in slow mo but real time thought ref was right with yellow.

Liverpool should have scored double digits today but finishing was woeful again.!

Great spectacle at Anfield and deserved a great send off.

1 league title in 9 seasons
Everton ended their title hopes this season.
Man Utd dumped them out of the cup.
Atalanta knocked them out of the 2nd rate European competition

I think thats Salah's last game for them. He looked decidely off the pace today, and his face during Klopps words on the young talent in the team didn't appear to go down too well.

And yet despite what youre trying to conjure up, only 2 other managers have won the PL and CL with the same club...
When did Arsenal last with the PL and CL BTW?

Thought you boys would be used to it by now, you've only manged it once for years. Anyway, good to see the wheels not coming off, but flying off the Falmer bus.

He’s had a few good seasons at Liverpool.
But had some mediocre ones aswell.
Massively overrated imo.
Look at his last 2 seasons
Also spent a fair bit

Youre more concerned than I am. He won the PL and CL and left a squad full of young talent and potential. He has brought in the youngsters when other club managers would just buy.
I think youre more concerned now as who are you going to try and ridicule now?

I'm never sure what these tables are actually showing. Is it simply the number of VAR decisions given in their favour minus the number given against them? Or is it the number of incorrect VAR calls in their favour minus the incorrect calls against them? If it's the former then it gives no useful information as it doesn't state whether the call was right or wrong. A stonewall penalty for a player catching the ball in the area not being given by the on field ref but given by VAR is a correct decision that has gone against a team. If it's the latter, who is looking at the decisions and deciding if they are right or wrong?

Broke the transfer record for goalkeeper & defender i believe

And?
Everyone in the game seems to agrree they were astute purchases of 2 very good players.....or are you saying they are rubbish?

 

[samthom99]

It was over after 3minutes today. I cant fault my team or manager. Fighting for a title against a corrupt organisation is harder than it looks. I almost feel sorry for the scousers.

When they were really good with Mane and Salah firing on both cylinders they were amazing to watch though, better than City at times imo.
