I have no problem with a player expressing their faith. Not sure why it seems to be frowned upon on this thread at times.

Harry Palmr

I just wish they'd all get off social media.

kfallon

Imagine if Sturridge and Katie Taylor became an item!

Anyway, everyone is entitled to their own beliefs and faith, have no problem with it!

I've said before I dont care who believes what and I dont think many do being honest.

All I was saying was if I was following any footballer on social media I'd rather see stuff about football so I wouldn't follow them if I had to watch them talk/post about God/Politics/Advertising etc etc......He has a right to believe and post what he wants though, I just wouldn't be interested in it....hardly frowning upon, if you were referring to me that is.

Is it though? It hasn't today at all IMO......if it has before I cant remember it being a widespread thing, open to correction though.

Let's be honest here nobody cares what religious beliefs a player has(I hope), the only reason it keeps coming up on this thread is because it's a stick to beat the much maligned Danny Sturridge with, plenty of other players express religious beliefs on the pitch but when Danny raises those fingers to salute the big man as he enters the field or if he thanks him for the goals he scores or if he tweets about it then it's posted on here but like I say that's mainly just people looking to moan about Sturridge than religion bashing (I hope)

5starpool

I say the same any time I see any footballer with the whole religion shtick. I've said it in the past about Sterling, Ojo, Ejaria. It just happens that Sturridge does it more often than anyone else connected with Liverpool.

To pretend it is just cause it is Sturridge is pretty ridiculous.

Will have to disagree on that one, no big deal.

Mane's Deity seems to be doing wonders for him maybe a few of the others might try switching to his to see if they have better luck.

Grayditch

Bang them in for Jesus, Allah, Kelly Brook. Whatever works.

Saint Mary she's called, also responsible for Lallana's great form.

I've probably been one of the more vocal people giving out about the privileged millionaire footballers praising their god for helping them do good things with their life/career specifically. Do you think I'm biased against Sturridge? I know there are a few people on here (Agent Coulsen and Turtyturd spring to mind) who are pretty anti Sturridge, but to suggest that anyone who mentions it is doing so because they have something against Sturridge is just a ridiculous assertion.

I am glad we finally have something to talk about.

Thank God

I have no idea if you're biased against Sturridge,you say you're not and I've no reason to doubt you, I never said you personally had a problem with him. You are implying in your post that you're an equal opportunities hater of people conveying their religious beliefs in the sports arena, so why would you feel the need to be one of the more vocal about this topic on a sports forum?

The brothers of chuckle who you mention are more in line with who I was talking about yes and I didn't say everyone who posts about it has a problem with Sturridge, I'd say the majority of it stems from it though.

Personally I'm not religious at all, so I don't have a horse in this race at all, so I think any player is entitled to do/say/act how they like and a sports forum is definitely not a place to be talking religion, last I'll say on the matter, good day.

Any update on lallana s injury

Agent Coulson

Anthony Taylor named as ref for the Monday night game.

He's from Manchester thought doesn't support either Utd or City.

But still he from Manchester.

They are of course entitled to, but it annoys me. Given that they are entitled to say what they want on the matter, then I am also free to think of them as at best annoying, at worst disingenuous and hypocritical.

Apparently he was going great in training over the weekend but was then hit by a bad case of stigmata.

Lucky it wasn't Sturridge that got hit by it then only his God would know how long he'd be out for then.

Is that when you get Juan hole in each hand and they sell you to a rival team? That's rough.

Henderson named as England captain for there game tomorrow.

MD1990

Wijnaldum has possibly suffered a hamstring injury.

citytillidie

Emre can come in then

Oh for Pete's sake a bit of a downer for my first smartphone reply!

5starpool

If Lallana isn't fit to play then I assume Coutinho will drop back a bit and Sturridge will come in up top. Hopefully no more injuries.

niallo27

Wouldn't it be brilliant to batter the bollox out of utd and set down a real marker. Haven't been this excited about the future since the rafa days. Coming second was great but you knew it was built on suarez.

Ejaria scored his first international goal tonight against the USA in a friendly. Brooks Lennon was playing for the Yanks.

Delighted for Hendo, he'll make a fine captain. Couldn't think of someone in the side that deserves it more.

Would love Niklas Sule. He is gonna be a beast!

Doni is.

I think they picked a very good team there. Rob Jones was undoubtedly the best full back for Liverpool when he was fit but he didn't play that long in the Premier league iirc. I think I'd pick Finnan ahead of him but I couldn't really argue with any selections made there.

Jones was a regular until 1996 really. It was from then on injuries hammered him. He played his last Liverpool game in February 1998 and joined West Ham after.

I don't remember him very clearly as I was too young but I'd have Finnan in that side too, for sure.

I know we all love Riise, too, but the fact that we never had a better LB than him in the PL speaks volumes...

Hard to argue with the rest, really.
