sixx Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 If there was anything substantial to the Liverpool doping claims we would be hearing some rumours stemming from other players in the league, which we haven’t so far. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WillDanceForChocolate Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 So, we'll be playing you again next season. When you come to Dean Court with Eddie in charge, there's going to be a hell of a lot of emotion in the air. I have a suspicion Sky will have a little word in the ear of the fixture computer to ensure it happens early in the season so they can be 100% sure of getting it. Plan for an away trip to the south coast by mid-September, and a nailed on selection for Sky coverage. Looking forward to it. And feels good that we'll get to give Howe a proper send off.

Three West Ham players on that list, and they as a team have visibly tired towards the end of the season. A quick Google suggests both Liverpool and Man City, unsurprisingly, topped the speed and distance stats last season. https://pro.statsports.com/premier-league-review-gps-trackers-show-man-city-and-liverpool-feature-heavily-in-speed-and-distance-stats/ It may be a coincidence but that article says Eriksen covered the most distance per 90 of any player in the league last season. As we know, a few weeks after the season ended (when that article was written), he collapsed in the Euros. I don't know how relevant that is but it does make you wonder.

That can't have been last season? Eriksen would have been at Inter and it mentions Sane for City. The speeds stats are always a bit hard to gauge much from. Wasn't Dummett the fastest player in the league a few seasons back? I think Bayern are the most suspect..the physical transformations some of those players made in such a small space of time is impossible without some form of juicing.

Guest Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 Watching Man City & Liverpool is frightening. Liverpool didn’t really break sweat against us and it was only good shot stopping that prevented that being 3 or 4. They’re on a different planet to everyone. Benzema is single-handedly dragging Real Madrid close but without him they’d not be laying a glove on City in the Semi Final. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
