Liverpool FC Team Talk/Gossip/Rumours 2016/2017

Liverpool outright second favs for the league now is a bit mad. Utd available at 12/1 while we are typically 5 or 6/1 is just silly. It's amazing how much one weekend of results in September can affect prices.

Liverpool would need to be about 20/1 at this stage before I'd be tempted to have a cheeky bet on them, not 5/1.

That's crazy all right, Leicester City should be shorter than Liverpool - at least they know how to win the Prem! :pac:

Did a helicopter tour this morning in London. As we were in the waiting are before going out, we were delayed by a bit because of the weather.

Meanwhile out the window I see this fecker not giving a ****e about the weather and hopping into his own chopper

Still carrying a sulk from Friday by the looks of it

Probably realises Mourinho will be back at Chelsea next season.

'This time he'll stay for years.'

I reckon the team on Tuesday will be something like this:

---

Karius

---

Clyne----Lovren

---

Klavan---Moreno

---

Lucas

---

---

Henderson----Can

---

Mane

---

Origi

---

Coutinho

The likes of Ings, Ejaria, Stewart, Grujic and perhaps even Sakho might be looking for a game, but I think they'll all be on the bench at best, with Firmino and Sturridge, Matip and Mignolet all on the bench anyhow (if all fit), so only room for 3 more.

Klopp has already said he won't be making wholesale changes for cup games this season, so no point expecting 11 changes I'd say.

Move not working out too well for wee Joe so far anyhow.

I genuinely think Bilic is in real danger if things don't improve soon. With the move to the new stadium, the last thing they want is the threat of relegation.

Utd break 3 managers in a row. Fans blaming the management rooney ect when the truth is auld whisky nose sold their souls to the devil to knock us off our ****ing perch.

Surely goal of the month which would make it 2 in a row for LFC.

Even quicker than the EL thread, how long did the Burnley one get?

People were all over the place though, I asked for a gif of the shot Harry mentioned cos the way it was described in the thread it must have been unlike any shot ever (including ones that actually went in) but someone didn't like it.

Gonna be quite the competition for LFC Goal of the season. I'd have Henderson above Coutinho and Msne though as they only scored against Cech.

Ah that got nuked on copyright grounds - the charter has something about PL stuff being off limits unless from a sanctioned site/account.

Not so fast in closing the Burnley V Liverpool one in fact it may still be open

Osmosis Jones

That tweet has gotten Gary Neville properly wound up, talking about how embarrassing it is for the club and that it'll get the United dressing room riled up for the game against us :pac:

Gary Neville having a hissy fit on twitter over it. Wasn't even aimed at United. It was aimed at a United fan account that had a go at Liverpool first. That said I don't think the official club twitter should get involved in stuff like that even though it was a fairly harmless comeback.

Which is in mid October. I can't imagine they will be using a tweet from a month previous as motivation somehow.

Aye, Mourinho will have thrown the fan account under the bus by mid October.

Was interesting to see Jordan reaction to scoring. He has clearly been reading what has being floating around about him. In the interview after match he said '' was about time he scored'' . That release of pressure from him when he scored was great.
One could never fault his commitment to the cause, and people should realize he is learning a new way of playing under Klopp. I'm sure Klopp will remind him to concentrate for 90 mins, his mistake led to the goal the Chelsilians scored, should of tracked his man into box .

Was it not Lallana who left Matic go after being beaten by him? Harsh to blame Hendo for that goal imo.

Is Gary Alexander Neville, Esq., PhD (honoris causa) having a hypocritical meltdown and completely blind to context? My, my.

It's just as well Gary Alexander Neville, Esq., PhD (honoris causa) isn't a poster here on boards, he could get himself in trouble. Although probably not.

He got by Lallana in midfield and Lallana tried to get back goal side of him but stumbled and lost his balance. Matic did run in behind Hendo though who was caught ball watching the Chelsea player out on the wing. Pretty much his only mistake of the game though.

I think both were at fault in a way but Lallana moreso than Henderson for me.

If Lallana isn't dying to pounce on it and go forward then the situation for Henderson doesn't develop in the first place.

After Lallana's mistake it's difficult for Henderson coz he has two runners to worry about and he picked the wrong one, but then again the wrong one is always the one who does the damage.

This sort of stuff is going to happen us a lot the way we play. But it also why we score goals. We take risks.

It's impossible to have attacking midfielders with defensive instincts. Lallana was only doing whats normal to him.
He wasnt great for one of the Arsenal goals when he tried to do a Cryuff turn and gave it away and they scored (I think Moreno got the blame officially but it started with lallana).
Then he was partly to blame for the Spurs goal too if you watch it again.

And then last night's one.

I'm not having a go at the lad at all, he's improved a lot this season, he's a forward thinking player and these things happen.

But if yer honest about all those 3 goals mentioned above, he had a hand in them all.

No we were all over Burnley but couldn't score, Watford were all over United but managed to put their chances away!! Sometimes the better team just struggle to scorebut that didn't happen today.

Banter. Neville must have been posting in the United match thread.

Mourinho has lost 11 of his last 21 PL games, specialist in failure.

He'll correct it but I'd love it, really love it if he fecks that one up. Back to supporting Leicester again!

But I thought Man Utd were crowned champions after 3 games & Bailly was the best defender in the world.

First comment

what does that mean? i dont understand

It's hardly the alternative table.

Most goals scored this year, second on points to United in the same time period but that could have changed this weekend. Winning without Firmino who must now be the most underrated player in the league, Coutinho takes a lot of the media and fan focus of him.

Loads to criticise, only 3 clean sheets or something but there are loads of positives.

The Liverpool United derby is going to be tasty. Everybody was complaining it had gone flat but this will more than make up for it. Hammering a nail in the Mourinho coffin would be delicious, this goes past United rivalry.

OwaynOTT

I'm getting awful tinges of 13-14 deja vu on here lately, specially today!
Long may it last and I'll take the inevitable lost posters if we go as close this year.
Hopefully turty is one of them.

I'm getting a health check up before. Don't think the nerves or heart could take it.
Because I can't see us humiliating them like we did last season because this year it will be only in the league.

In other news......Utd have been awarded the "best team in second half" trophy.
