Ye are gas, lads. Gave myself Augeo and Potential Underachiever loads a shíte a while ago for having different opinions than people in here and now ye are ganging up on Shamrock.

Lads literally calling him out instead of enjoying a brilliant win.

Pathetic stuff from the usual suspects.

It's the internet. Pretty much everyone has got picked on for a day or so in here. Usually coincides with a poor result or worse still, an international break. With a hard neck, you just ignore it and it moves on.

Agent Coulson

To put things into a bit of perspective.


Since Rafa's last season we have only finished above 63 points once so and we have hit that this season with 6 games to go.

livinginkorea

Love the players running to Klopp to celebrate Bobby's goal too. Great to see that. I know he will take no crap but once you get on with him, I'm sure he's brilliant to motivate them all.

you know what today showed, Liverpool are not a one Mane team like they have been accused of

No, but if Coutinho picks up an injury then by God are we in trouble!

Just seen the MotD segment (haven't watched it in a while) - how do Liverpool get away with that defending and not have it commented upon...?! Espeically winaldum heading it back to four Stoke strikers on the line, dear Jesus...

Finally - any news on when Hendo or Lallana are due back?

shamrock55

Just for the record i dont feel like people are ganging up on me at all, i can put up with plenty crap off lads here,in fact i enjoy it and welcome it,its all about opinions as is every topic in the world,the world would be an awfull boring place if we all liked and agreed on the same things,we all love liverpool at the end of the day,and we all want whats best,its just that some lads dont agree on the best or right way to achieve that,so what,whos right and whos wrong,the answer is nobody,so lads keep the opinions coming, be they upbeat or like myself mainly downbeat,its what make the forum what its is-a bit of craic

Osmosis Jones

I actually didn't realise how close we are to Man City, only one point off if they win their game in hand. Third place is within reach.

shamrock55

Who was it that headed the ball back into the box when migs made a great save from adam,dreadfull bit of play it was

Their game in hand is against Man Utd. A draw there would be perfect.

It'll probably be one of the last games of the season, so who knows, we might well be funking a utd win.

Seemed to completely misjudge the flight of the ball. I'd have been gutted for him if Adam scored because he's been great all season and that's probably all people would talk about. Mig bailed him out big time.

Osmosis Jones

The chance for Adam should've been ruled for offside anyway, Wijnaldum heads it back to Adam, who knocks it down to Berahino who touches it back to Adam, but Berahino was offside when Adam knocked it to him.

It'd be a weird match thread. Liverpool fans wanting utd to win, and Utd fans probably wanting utd to lose.

Basically Liverpool vs. Chelsea 2010 the other way around.

That's still the weirdest day I've ever had as a Liverpool fan.

Blackburn at home on the last day of 95. Win that and we'd be potentially handing the title to United (as it happened, we did win, but United drew so Bburn win - all good )

Jamie Redknapp with such a sublime free.

I still cant forgive him.

I actually remember that day so clearly, after cycling to the offo and getting 6 cans of Royal Dutch. Don't judge me.

marklazarcovic

spurs are showing you don't need to spend 500 million to challenge at the top,got to give them credit,very very solid team now. Interesting few years ahead I think in the top 6

Harry Palmr wrote: »

Some actual facts (as opposed to made up one by me earlier)

Coutinho has scored the most goals by a Brazilian in the PL - 29, Bobby F has 19.

18 points won from losing positions (not 15)

Fun Bobby has been carded for goal winning celebrations more times than any other player in the top leagues over the last 4 seasons, just as well he isn't a striker.

That was Liverpool's first league win without Sadio Mane in the squad.

Oh yes - EL football is now a certainty at worst

Interesting fact the previous record holder was his cousin Juninho

I was in first year n college then, and now August I had a £2 accumulator on 4 teams to win their divisions at odds of just under 400/1 and Blackburn was the only leg I was waiting for (Boro for D1 as it was then, Birmingham for D2 and Rangers in Scotland as well). Imagine how conflicted I was? That's a lot of money for a student in 1995. All worked out though thankfully. Thanks Andy Cole!

The sky commentators mentioned if Berahino touched it he would have been offside, seeing motd again this morning that exactly what happened he did touch it

Looked like he knew he had to get the ball but was afraid to stick his head on it properly in case he got a boot.

OwaynOTT

So it's not all about the Mane after all.


Also Charlie Adams makes a mockery of the term 'professional footballer' and to think I didn't mind him at Liverpool.
Damn you Charlie Adams for making me care and then disappointing me!

Betfair and Paddy Power both have Liverpool 4/11 for Top4. All other firms are much tighter with the price but Betfair is more often than not the "real" price or as close as you'll get to it.

Arsenal are 5/2 with PP and Boylsports but bigger elsewhere.

Essentially Arsenal have under a 1 in 4 chance of making it according to the markets, Utd 1 in 5 ish.

So we are 3 to 1 on ............ far from dead cert of course but we are getting there

OwaynOTT

Just looking at the table there. Don't think we can win it now.

Yeah I watched it again earlier and you're right. I didn't pick up on it yesterday for some reason.

I work with a guy that thinks that's his name and calls Stoke "Stroke". Drives me mental. You should hear him try to get his mouth around Wijnaldum.

I thought it was later for some reason. Anyhow, once Sunderland (lol) and Chelsea beat utd in the next 2 games we'll be ok with a utd win to help us get 3rd.

Knex*

I'd say only the most optimistic of spanners thought Liverpool were going to come out of that game with a win when losing at half time. Massive result.

Hopefully gives us a platform to push on from now in this final run.

I hope Man Utd don't absolutely batter Sunderland, GD might be key yet

Were on track to concede 50 league goals for 4th season in a row.

I think we'll have to put up with that under Klopp..... as a side note I don't think we will concede 10 goals in our next 6 games Couldn't really care less if we get Top4 how many goals we concede tbh.

A great DM that could pass would solve so much of our problems and also possibly suit Klopp's style so perhaps a CM/DM like that is on the shopping list.

I'll thank you not to call me optimistic.

I'm not worried about Utd, look at their fixtures they will drop points. They have to play Chelsea, City Arsenal and Spurs.

I think we're chasing third spot now.

Yesterday is a great confidence boost.

Osmosis Jones

Yesterday was all about keeping pace, none of our rivals would've been expected to drop points this weekend anyway, it's the next few weeks that see them all play each other and that's where we need to capitalise.

murpho999 wrote: »

Indeed, they have 1.8ppg in their last 10 up to today.
Take that over their last 8 games, add today's 3 pts and what they currently have and they end up on less than 72 pts :pac:

They need 16 pts from 8 games to hit 73 points.

I'm not worried as such but I wouldn't be writing them off either.

It would be in Utds best interest to lose that game and keep Sunderland up.

If they go down, where will all their rejects end up?:pac:

Why does that worry you?

BorneTobyWilde

We've lost 4 away from home which is 3rd best in league.
We've lost 1 at home, which is second best in league.


White Hart Lane is a fortress though. No losses for them.
Chelsea lost 2 at home, double the amount we lost at home.

For a different type of answer, it'd be bad because them with CL would be more likely to get the top drawer players in. Obviously they are a big draw anyhow, especially with the massive budget, but without that it might stop some at least signing for them as it has become a habit now nearly with it being 3 from 4 seasons they will have missed out.
