Imagine complaining about your club voting for a spending cap when you’ve been complaining all this time about oil clubs. Some people are so stupid I swear.
i said this before the season started and i'll say it again, van dijk doesn't really suit as captain because he neither inspires the team with his performance or drags them to a victory like stevie used to, nor does he constantly get on the players to do their job and mark someone and press on and move and find open spaces like milner and hendo used to. i know he has his own style but when we're losing, especially when we're going through a poor run he doesn't really do much.
the idiots saying “durrr liverpool’s downfall needs to be studied” have genuinely lost the plot.
going into this season, if we’d been offered a 3rd-place finish and winning the efl cup in the way we did, nobody would have turned it down.
klopp has overachieved with this team, and the players have been phenomenal- they’re fucking exhausted, they’ve had the least rest time of any prem team, of course they’re doing to fall off.
we aren’t city. we don’t have the funds to have essentially what is the equivalent of a full mid-table team on our bench. we cannot push super hard at the end of the season like city can, because they have the experience and the depth and, most importantly, the money to have the experience and the depth.
we have overachieved. this season is a success. no shit, i wish we won the league, but that isn’t happening, so we have to look at the bigger picture.
Every time the Sheffield United player Ben slimane gets mentioned I can’t help think about how that’s also the name of the French e*rovis*on artist for this year
