"It's not that he is not good enough it's just there is always somebody better"
How does that work then?

There self entitlement is what grates with me,they just feel that they have a devine right to win the league and if they don't it's just because there is a conspiracy against them.

They were delusional last year claiming they played the best football in Europe but at least you could see why some bought the argument. This year they are horrible to watch. They sit deep and launch long diagonals to Salah or Mane and just chase the knockdown or second balls looking to capitalise on a set piece or a penalty. They’re miles behind City Chelsea Arsenal or even Spurs in terms of getting the ball on the deck and taking the game to teams.

There is definitely a pattern to their football, because that is exactly what they did when they had Sturridge and Suarez there, diagonal long balls, that made them rely on their pace.

Said before Klopp has spent a fortune this year making them more boring to watch but tighter at the back. Lol they even have a long throw in specialist trainer, the new Stoke.

Jack Charlton was doing that with Ireland in 1988. It's not fancy.

I think what’s really putting the cat amongst the pidgeons of their collective psyche is that if it was a clear two horse race they’d already be trotting the line out ‘Guardiola only does 3 seasons then when he’s gone Klopp would definitely win if’. Now they’re watching arguably a less exciting team than they had last season, Klopp’s midfield buys haven’t worked, they’ve been easily handled by nascent Sarri and Emery sides not to mention they couldn’t lay a glove on City even at home, and top cap it off they’ve had their best ever start and not managed to move themselves away from Spurs Arsenal or Chelsea. Even if City didn’t compete next season objective punters wouldn’t put a huge amount on Klopp edging out some of those managers with another transfer window behind them. They’re playing amongst the big boys and coming to the realisation that assumptions they’ve been fed for the last 3 seasons ‘Klopp is the best manager in the top 6’ ‘Salah is the best forward in the world’ ‘Keita will revolutionise the midfield, Liverpool won’t miss Coutinho’ are simply not true as the evidence mounts against it. From the performances of all the teams after 11 games this season they look like they’ll be in a top 4 fight with Spurs and Arsenal for the two places behind City and Chelsea.

The last couple of days the mantra has shifted from: "It's our year" and "Jurgen's got this" to "Dee oil clubs can afford to field two first teams, lad" and "juss wait until we start playin' well lad, we haven't even got into top gear yet, lad".


Stick a fork in that lot, they're done.

"We’re not challenging Manchester City.... we’re challenging for top 4 again.
It’s so annoying that the times we have created a good team..... someone with Country or Oil money creates something better!!!
My biggest fear is we eventually loose when he’s contract runs it’s course and he hasn’t quite got us that 19th title. Not because he’s not good enough but simply because there was s team that was just that little bit better.
This year we thought it would be us against Manchester City and then Chelsea and Arsenal have also improved greatly.
Because of 5is I’m finding it hard to enjoy the season so far....... we will all take points off each other and Manchester City will go on....... winning 4-1 at half time.... they will be 2 points ahead......at some point we’re going to lose.... and that’s 5 points and the way they’re playing it’s practically title over.
I’m 51.... supported Liverpool got 46 years and want this title more than anything in the world.... so frustrating!!!
Before everyone goes mental and start to tell me to f off etc..... it’s jus5 how I’m feeling... I enjoyed last season because there was no title expectation and the champions League ‘journey’ was unexpected and spectacular!
This season I just can’t get excited because of the inevitability of Manchester City!!"

Is this fe!la putting a 5 instead of a T and he is 51 years old,or am I being paranoid.

Is there any truth in the rumour that when the third went in Merseytravel raised their threat level in fear of their buses.

I thought people made statues of you when you'd done something great, Salah in case you're wondering

That’s Salah after he’s been on a 3 year crack binge and bumming ciggies and spare change by central station

What an accolade. To stand on top of a brass ashtray that twizzles round and round (to drop the ciggie in (ask your Dad!)) when you tap on his head. Though I do think the empty trophy cabinet tribute in the background is a nice touch.

Isn't 't' near to '5' on the keyboard?

And if the poor fella's trying to type with 6 fingers....

I thought it was Michael Jackson when he was in the Jackson 5.

Clearly the sculptor doesn't like LFC..

Massive head (reflects Kopite bigheaded attitudes) and Big Ears (that hear too much)
Small hands (see Donald Trump - also applies to Kopites)
Small feet (see small hands)
