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

Alisson injury: few weeks my arse.

That's minimum 6 weeks. They wouldn't be bringing in replacement keepers for 'a few weeks'.

They said the same last year with Joe Gomez. A few weeks turned into out for the season.

I am starting to think this. It's already gone from 3 to 6 weeks. There appears to be a concerted effort to stop their fan base heads falling off, which they will if they realise a lad kept out of West Hams team by Darren Randolph (currently at Middlesborough) is going to be their new number 1.

There have been rumours that the achilles is also being looked at. Any sensible approach would be to give him a much longer rest, but I suspect he will be rushed back as soon as possible, and if he inevitably breaks down they'll be playing the hard luck story again.

As for Gomes, these are the same idiots bragging Klopp gave him 4 days rest over the summer. They are idiots. He will break down again at some point this season. On a side note, despite them saying how brilliant he is, I saw a lad on Friday being given the runaround by a lad who flopped in the SPL. That was truly horrific defending from him and Arnold for Norwich's goal, and there were about 4 other examples of it too. Van Dijk and Alisson get them out of trouble a lot. Without them 2 they are back to finish between 4-8th as they usually did.

Liverpool are served by a battery of hacks who know they can get a lot of clicks by giving the cult the news they want to hear. After it happened on Friday night the number of these reporters claiming "it's just a sprain/hyper-extension injury/minor tear...nothing to worry about here" was staggering.

So glad I'm not one of them, they're embarrassing and deluded. I'd rather win nothing forever supporting Everton, than be associated with anything they do.

Usually when somebody like him is on camera, it's on things like the Jeremy Kyle show or something like swamp people. How somebody as weird as him, has the confidence to do something like Redmen TV is beyond me. I don't mind the other fella on it, but that guy mixed with the Anfield wrap, just makes me ill. I'd say why can't they be like Robbie from Arsenal fan TV, but he's black, so they'd probably racially abuse him.

The giveaway for me is why are they considering bringing Karius back? To do that would likely mean they forfeit any payment fees they've agreed and likely cost them money.

Told him early doors it wasn't going to end well, he came on with alleged good intention but ended up being defensive of all that we dislike about them culminating in a hilarious meltdown.

Your threshold for “hilarious” is pretty low mate. As is your definition of a meltdown.

I’ve been on holiday and the footie season started!

I’ve also decided though, that I’ll swerve the discussion on the whole.

Sorry you missed it, but great news Ste, you won the Premiership on Friday night.

Congratulations, well deserved.
