Like it when a player leaves the shit show of Man Utd and thrives elsewhere The same McTominay that was causing meltdowns on here when we were linked. Someone on here actually said he was a league two player and was dead serious about it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattoon Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 (edited) Can't help but feel that most of the noise about it being an easy win for Liverpool and worst season ever is coming from the likes of Man Utd supporters as they lick their lower half wounds. Liverpool have beaten what's been put in front of them, what else can they do? Yes there's an element of fortune there that City are way off it and their closest rival is a hit and miss Arsenal side that could still finish 3rd in a 2 horse race. I think a lot of teams are in transition and there's a change in the pecking order at the top end of the table, the likes of us and Villa will make life more difficult for the league leaders in the seasons to come and dare I say it, spend some time there ourselves.

Astroblack Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 Maybe we should have signed Mctominnay. 10 goals for Napoli this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 The key for Liverpool this season has been their consistently away from home. In a season where Man City have collapsed and Arsenal have struggled for creativity, they've been the best side by quite a margin. That said, Slot has benefited hugely from Klopp's ability to spunk circa £150 million on a brand new midfield last season, as well as Salah being in the form of his career until the New Year.

midds Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 Going out of my way to avoid any/all coverage of them celebrating and/or lifting the trophy at all. I'm aware it's happened but that doesn't mean I want to see a single second of the fucker. I've also managed to avoid 99% of their previous PL celebrations too, I've seen the odd few seconds of footage from their covid title but managed to switch it off sharpish thankfully Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gazza ladra Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 49 minutes ago, 54 said: I was thinking about this, it's been a really competitive season, in that the middle of the field has gotten a load stronger, so their a lot less shit mediocre teams, where any team can beat anyone, with teams like Man City and Arsenal getting beat way more often, which you'd think would make things more dramatic, but it's actually done the opposite as all it's meant is that Liverpool have just had to be consistent week in week out and it's been a cake walk, while teams that come up just can't compete, as their base is so much lower than everyone else, so they're way off it. So despite it being more competitive it's weirdly made the season more dull, and effectively over with 4 games left. OK , I see what you are saying. But I don't really care if the title race between Man City and Liverpool or Arsenal is going down to the wire. And I don't really care about the relegation scrap that much. I would care about both of those things a lot more if my club was in the conversation. The battle for the Champions League and Europe has been great. And I'd think that the fans of those "mediocre teams" are still excited about this season as well. Liverpool has been the best team this season and they've consistently beaten those mediocre teams. For me, the figures who are driving this narrative about the league being poor are the Man United, Sours, Chelsea, Man City, and Arsenal fans / pundits who feel let down by their clubs' "poor performances". Fact is, they just got their asses handed to them by Forest, Bournemouth, Palace, or Wolves. Good. The closing of the gap between the midtable and the cartel makes this a great season. And seeing Man United and Spurs near the bottom of the table is far better than watching a title fight between Liverpool, Arse and City go down to the last week of the season.

Hovagod Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 It does not get spoken about as much as it should, but Liverpool as a club, team and fanbase endorsed racism as recently as 2012. They’re in love with their past so I’m not sure why this subject is one they don’t like to delve into too deeply. But I remember it and it was shameful.

Kid Icarus Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 (edited) Don't think anyone's disputing that they've been the best team, it's whether the standard needed to win is lower than usual. Imo it is without question. If watching Liverpool and watching the rest of the teams in the league doesn't immediately make it obvious how lower the standards are this season then looking at the table and seeing that the team at the top has won it on 82 points with 4 games left might do it. I include us in that btw, we had a shocking summer, started with poor performances, were inconsistent for ages and we're sat in 3rd, it's mad.

Surely a team getting near 100 points is more indicative of a farmers league. The fact that there’s almost nothing in it from second to about tenth, shows how competitive the league has been this season. Apart from the three promoted teams being so far off it, I think this year has shown the league to be in great health. Think back to the 90’s and early 2000’s what points totals did the champions have those years? This 100 points lark is a relatively recent phenomenon and indicative of the bulk of the league being miles off it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
