BenTheFox Posted 3 January 2020 Posted 3 January 2020 Terhe's now doubting how good this Liverpool team are, but I can't help but think that the standard of the league is very poor. So many teams have been really inconsistent. 1

But who won the 2010-19 Premier League – which we at FourFourTwo have decided is A Thing? That’s right: we crammed every single match played in the top flight into our Special Maths Machine™, donned our safety goggles, cranked the lever, then scanned at the reams of paper printing off and shouted “Great Scott!” We're 14th Below West Brom and Swansea are 2016 champions Leicester. However, if you work it out by points per game (which our Special Maths Machine™ also does), the Foxes find themselves in eighth, below only the decade’s mainstays. Impressively, by that measure,

He's clearly *trying* to play out from the back and charge into midfield like he used to but Manchester Utd simply have no midfield to connect up to. So he's left aimlessly wandering out of the box with the ball at his feet like a child looking for his mum.

If for whatever freak reason E20 LLP go bust, what happens to the ground? Assuming a different owner came in, would that massively unsettle West Ham staying there?
Guest Col city fan Posted 3 January 2020 Posted 3 January 2020 Completely agree about the ‘ruthlessness’ of this current Liverpool side. They must be an absolute nightmare to play against because they just do not stop for breath. They grind you down with efficiency. Very few passes go astray. They go forward all the time. Brilliant team

He usually gives it at least a year before it all goes south. Is he condensing the Mourinho Three Year Cycle into a three month cycle? Things move so fast these days. But there’s no silverware on the table for them this month. So they will miss out on the "win a trophy in year two" bit. Spursy.
Md9 Posted 3 January 2020 Posted 3 January 2020 I see drinkwater has had his loan cancelled and gone back to Chelsea. Surely half a season loan to the championship would be good for him to get him some kind of form 2

They did beat Man City and Tottenham. December is an odd one given you play up to seven matches depending on dates, so it is unlikely managers will have near to perfect records.

Fox92 Posted 3 January 2020 Posted 3 January 2020 18 hours ago, Goober said: Most ruthless, powerful side I've ever seen. Pep's City at their peak were far better to watch and Pep's Barca are the best I've ever seen but these are brilliant in a different way. Powerful, quick and will outrun anyone. 2 CL finals in a row on top of their ridiculous domestic form and I wouldn't put it past them to make it to another one this season. They're bastards but fair play to Klopp, done an amazing job. If Liverpool win the league they'll be better than the Manchester City 100 points team for me, considering they've won the Champions League (and got to another final). Manchester City were raved about, rightly so tbf, but they didn't do anything in Europe. Klopp has turned them from an average side into one of the best teams in the World.

Off the back of beating Tottenham and Manchester City and stuffing Newcastle I suppose. No chance he should win it though. Give it big Nige, I’m sure Klopp has plenty already!

I'm sure they've had more rest than most, just had to travel. I really should let the hate I have for the Liverpool bumming, go. They’ve played two more games than us in the last 5 weeks, so I don’t know how you make out more rest than most. You are not alone though, lots of people on this site have taken on this weird hatred of Liverpool just as they did with Spurs 4 years ago. It’s a bit odd. Edited 3 January 2020 by lildave3 3
Leicesterpool Posted 3 January 2020 Posted 3 January 2020 Drinky has returned to Chelsea after an unsuccessful loan spell at Burnley. Don't think there's any chance of him breaking into the Chelsea squad anytime soon.
