ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC" part 3

[Yarrgh]

The Unbreathables!

I'd love it if the rs wore t-shirts saying, "I can't breath" in support of the BLM movement.

Apart from one article and one Twitter feed, I haven't seen much else. Like the story about them hacking City's computers, it'll all be swept under the carpet and forgotten about in a few weeks.

Talking to a rs about 2 weeks ago, and mentioned the hacking after he was talking about their superior scouting. Didn't even know it had happened. Didn't even get to talk about Van Dijk and Allison being world transfer records for their positions might not mean that they had snagged a secret bargain.

But hey ho.

The unusual step Jurgen Klopp has taken to alleviate stress from Liverpool stars

Jurgen Klopp is known for trying to find the marginal gains to make Liverpool Premier League champions

Yes, because getting 22 asthmatics to hold their breath under water is a sound idea. Something is clearly not right.

With out a doubt they are the fittest team I've seen , the amount of sprints they make is on another level, the difference in them after the covid restart was night and day , lethargic and struggling to last the 90 , when they got interviewed after the game they was sweating and out of breath compare that to the first half of the season they looked like they just been for a stroll.

Rs chief medical officer just been questioned.....

The
Drugs in asthma medications is a activation agent when using Peds you cant compete in sport with anyone who has asthma, I bet half those players didn't have asthma until they joined liverpool.

I would say none.

At last the truth is starting to leak out.
They won't be the only club doing it but they have certainly taken to the max.
The media should be absolutely all over this - but as we know there will not
be a squeak. At least we know now. They have drugged their way to the two trophies
they have recently won. Cheats of the highest order.

If a surprising amount are "hypothroid" too, then thyroxine will give you a cover for metabolism enhancing recovery drugs. Note it mentions that the "brains" of the lfc operation had a fall out with herr klopp, before they started this lung busting run in the league a few years back?

The Cannibal is apparently joining Juventus. That'll go down well at the Branch Davidian compound, then.

 

[TommyDavo]

See the bbc page is reporting 4 RS up for player of the year. No mention of the Man City players in the headline

 

[Diogenes the Cynic]

That such a percentage of their squad is asthmatic is possible if improbable.

What would be interesting is the date of diagnosis, their previous medical and medication history and changes to their medication, presentation and lung capacity testing etc.

Unfortunately I don't think any of this will be probed or in the public sphere.

 

[Cookmysock]

all 22 asthmatic players are 22 people all high risk when it comes to corona all should be shielding and self isolating or something not wanting a premier league re-start.

If this was a cycling team Dan Roan would be wetting himself with excitement

A couple of points on this. It's not going away these allegations. I'd also say, there are a lot of specific accusations in that article, and you'd think if they were untruthful LIverpool could just shut it down immediately with a standard legal letter. If I was an editor, and someone wrote that for me, even as an Evertonian I'd be like "are you sure you back up a lot of these assertions, as this has litigation written all over it" and would be keen not to publish.

I've no idea what they have done, and if they have 22 people with Asthma it could just be a piece of extra ordinary bad luck. However Lance Armstrong was a much bigger figure than LFC, much better known, with a much cleaner reptuation and commercial reputation (and thats no slight on Liverpool it's pro Lance Armstrong) and it did very little to protect him.

I agree with all of this except for the second sentence. I think it will go away. Nobody will run with it.
