Please stop calling him Mr. Sturridge, it's wrecking my head seeing it constantly.

It's almost as funny as the incessant use of 'the Rodgers' which was also flogged to death at every opportunity.

The "hurling" refernaces are getting really frigging old too

Yes we should sell Coutinho as he only scored 14 goals last season and buy Sanchez from Arsenal for £70m!

For some, any auld smidgin of humour or wit will be a canker on their poor, shrivelled, tormented, joyless souls.

'Wit' - the capacity for inventive thought and quick understanding; keen intelligence.

I'm not sure that some of the 'banter' that is flogged to death here sometimes could be deemed witty.

Then again, humour is subjective.

There's some really great content posted here and I enjoy reading others opinions, whether I agree with them or not.

It would be nice if some of the "inside jokes" would go away quietly instead of being being flogged to the death by the same posters over and over again. There's already been more than one mod instruction to cut out some of the rubbish because it was pissing off so many users.

Mane was given the day off for recovery. Must mean he'll be starting on Saturday. Anyway Klopp would have mentioned any injury at his Presser which was after morning training AFAIK

I'm quite aware of the ignore function and have benefitted from its use already.

Putting someone on ignore however is the internet equivalent of rolling your eyes when someone in the office/pub pulls out the same one-liner for the 100th time. Most people would get the message after awhile.

Spurs proved you can score the most goals in the league and still concede the least goals. At 8-1 for league they're a great bet, personally I think they win the league before May.
We have scored 25 goals in last 10 games, including preseason, while conceding 8. I expect now the games are competitive we will score less and concede more.
I don't see the need for our full back to bomb forward, over 90 mins we will score a goal.
Would love to see an old style back four like Arsenal had, where they stay in line for 90 mins.

but wait, I thought Utd won the league on Sunday???? :pac:

You already said it's subjective. Dry your eyes, chin up.

To be fair, a few jokes on here are on season 15 with no original cast members left.

Just reading that Suarez is out until early October.
Barcelona desperation levels have just hit an all time high, if this is true there'll be an awful lot of Barca propaganda coming our way tomorrow.

Whether Suarez is available or not to Barca makes no difference to LFC.
Phil has a contract and must honour it unless both parties are willing to compromise. You could argue that Lallana being out till October means the exact opposite and any chance of negotiation is out the window.

Besides, if Barca think that Phil will unlock defences and score goals to make up for Luis and Neymar being missing, they clearly dont know what kind of player they're looking at.

But how are we to know it's a funny unless it's from the approved list? I think it's safer and greener to recycle.

Iirc Draxler turned Liverpool down in favour of PSG so that might not sit well with Klopp.

Salah turned down Liverpool in favour of Chelsea. I don't think he'll care.

Alas yes, nothing to get excited about. What's so frustrating is that we all know just a couple (or three) signings could/should have a 'transformative' effect on the squad. VVD (or other) Draxler, Goretex. Keep you know who and I'm sure we'd be flying.

It's either in-jokes or Chicken Little posts.

Pretty much service as normal, tbh.

I suppose. But Klopp wasn't there then. He might have a different feeling on things now.

I think Salah was the back-up plan for Draxler wasn't he?

Either way, I doubt Liverpool will go back in for him.

Seems Southampton have signed that defender. I wonder will this mean there will be movement on VVD?

Pellegrino has been told there will be no extra funds for players so he will have to sell to buy.

https://www.thetimes.co.uk/edition/sport/southampton-owner-tells-mauricio-pellegrino-he-has-no-extra-funds-6xz3ff8v6

So it looks like VVD will be moving but the question is where will he go?

The main problem for the goal is at this point. The player has 6 options ahead of him and all the time in the world to pick one out. Mane not closing down the man quickly enough.

Lovren and Moreno both too deep allowing 2 players on side from the long ball.

The entire midfield ball watching.

I agree with this but for one thing, You say Lovren and Moreno are to deep ? have you played ball ever at a decent level ? Lovern and Moreno are both on the side the ball is coming from so there for Matip and Trent should be taking there line from them ,
Matip is about half a yard higher than Lovern which isn't bad and in my opinon he is trying to be level with Lovern,
Its clear as day the only one of the back four that is out of position is TRENT  , hes on the far side and should be taking his line from the near side, I know he is young but its clearly his positioning that causes the goal, he even knows this with his attempt to stick his arm up and get saved by the lino,

VVD is going to be at least sixty of that back straight away, seems a good deal

yourdeadwright

Just to further my point above, At any decent level your thought as a kid playing centre back if there is no pressure on the ball to drop off to step up is suicide , Lovern and Moreno are doing the correct thing I also think Matip is but is half a yard out,
Lovern had a crap game and Moreno is Moreno but what they are doing there is correct and basic defending learned at any half decent level

Was listening to James Richardson's new podcast & he said we lost our last 3 at home to Palace. If we make that 4 then I'll be pissed.

Well, Celtic will get some of that and maybe the Chinese folk only get 80% of the remainder? Still though. The PL money be another lash into the pot.
