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


Thought there’d been some kind of tragedy at anfield after hearing klopp saying if we have 11 we go for it?? Referring to the cup final this weekend. A couple of injuries and he’s looking for the sympathy vote. WTF.

Maybe he's been told there will be an in depth doping test before the cup final, only way he'd be struggling to field 11 players.

Just the £80m pairing of Gakpo and Diaz up front alongside someone they poached from Fulham in the cheap.
A £75m defender and three new midfielders that cost £100m.

And somehow it's made to look like they were the plucky underdogs at home to Luton.

Just shows how ridiculous FFP or PSR rules are. You have 9 senior players out but can field players that cost a few hundred million.

He could put 11 kids out and they’d tonk every team in the league home or away apart from Arsenal and City. Just good management and training though.

The BBC are completely peddling this 'injury crisis' nonsense - it's making me fume. God, I hope they get absolutely battered, but of course they already have an excuse in place. And imagine if they win - how they overcame insurmountable odds to claim a famous victory. I think my blood is literally boiling
 

They do have a big injury list but as people have mentioned they have 30-40m pound players stepping in. Gakpo stepped in last night and cost more than the whole Luton squad combined. They got lucky they were at home to Luton. A sterner test away from home and it may have been a different story but that doesn’t fall in with the do it for Klopp media love in.

Will give them credit though I don’t think Arsenal or City will have kept the pace with similar injuries. Despite City having depth they go to pieces when just Rodri is out and the jury is still out on their summer transfers.
 
Nauseating comments from Rob Edwards, the latest in a long list of opposing managers who are happy to just roll over for a belly tickle and a headpat.

"We just made them angry I think didn't we," Edwards said post-match.

"Second-half I think we just saw Anfield, saw Liverpool, saw that full-throttle football. Their counter-pressing was incredible, suffocated us.

"Fans were amazing and it was probably difficult for the players to really concentrate. The real threat came from their counter-pressing, their intensity, it really put us on the back foot.

"Clearly I'm disappointed to concede from a corner and a throw in as well, those are the bits we know we can improve on, especially in that noise when your mate next to you can't hear you. You've got to be able to deal with those situations better.

"But, bigger and better teams have come here and that's sort of happened to them as well so it's not a disgrace.

"It was like the Kop was just sucking it in and we couldn't really get out. We saw Anfield and Liverpool at it's best, I thought they were brilliant."

The mind-set of these tin pot mangers is just unbelievable. It’s a game of footie in a stadium ffs.
As Big Nev mentioned in his last podcast, teams like Luton have to make it ugly and uncomfortable for the Sky Six, and not just ‘enjoy the experience’.

Perpetuating the myth.
