Quite an achievement to have a celebrity parody account parodied by the celebrity.

It's like an 'Inception' of celebrity accounts and might become confusing as to who is who.
Problem needs to be ironed out.

Suarez was a force of nature. Bending his will upon a game. I've never seen a player consistently impact games in the manner that he did.

He led the charge, and the rest of the team followed.

You've never seen a player consistently impact games in the manner he did? Isnt this exactly what Salah is doing?

I dont know why everyone is banging on about Suarez. Fucķ him, he's gone, and he couldnt be happier. He bought a house for Coutinho in Barcelona before a deal was even agreed for him.

I'd rather praise the good players we have at Liverpool then worry about the guys we used to have who wanted to be somewhere else. Salah is a phenom and is on track to break records.

Ah Jaysus, steady on. Suarez was an absolute phenomenon. People adored him, still do. That gif of him celebrating the FA Cup winner against United shows what it meant to him. He never took to the pitch once without giving it absolutely everything and he was adored for that. Look at the crowd reaction to Andy Robertson's closing down vs City - Scousers love their superstars but adore the hard-working ones.

I don't think anyone's deliberately choosing one over the other. Can't we cherish the fact that we had both?

I'd have no issue with KDB winning it really. he's ridiculous.

But put it this way. Salah is on course to have one of the greatest goalscoring English league campaigns of all time, in what is essentially his debut season. it's astonishing.

if Kane was having this sort of season, I genuinely believe he'd win the award quite handily.

If Kane were having the same sort of season, he'd be up for a knighthood!

But he is? Didn't he score more goals in 2017 than any other player in any of the big leagues, and he was level with Salah on goals before the Watford game.

Despite Kane being injured atm Salah has still played 49 minutes less than him this season, so to be 4 goals ahead is something special.

Ah but two of those goals came in August, in the month that Kane is still on his holidays as everyone knows. So you need to deduct Salah goals and Kane minutes to compare like with like.

If Liverpool win Champions League and Arsenal will Europa league then that leaves only 3 places left in Champions League, as only 5 teams from a country can qualify.
So if Chelsea go on a run of wins, plus beat Liverpool and Spurs they still could grab 3rd, and if that happened with Spurs finishing 4th they would miss out on Champions league, if Liverpool finish 5th and win Champions League, and Arsenal win Europa league.

Awful lot of ifs there. I think it is fairly safe to speculate that this scenario won't come to fruition.

True - still be funnier if Spurs finished fourth and got demoted though instead of Chelsea.

It would also mean us finishing fifth and going into a CL final knowing we have to win it to be in the damn next season. Not sure my heart could stand that.

Be nicer to just finish top 4 and win the CL.

Would be an OK season, I guess....

l really only becoming invested in other teams failing when our season is done. This CL run is really screwing up my normal end of season routine.

Nope, he doesn't get away with his dives, so they are not medal worthy.

Inception is the planting of an idea based on the explanation of this in the movie. You might mean recursion

Everyone should channel their inner Toby from time to time, it's therapeutic.

Agent Coulson

VVD, Wijnaldum, Henderson, Gomez & Ox all starting.

robwen

Is it just the one game over this international break or is there another round of games early next week?

Agent Coulson

Of course a Liverpool player gets injured for bloody England

Hopefully Gomez will be the worst of it, and hopefully it isn't too serious.

Just flicking around the TV there came across the end of another international...

Moreno got a goal for Spain?

Our Moreno like?

J Mysterio

Whats with that new Nivea ad?

Oxlade-Chamberlain shaving his tits with Millie and Gomez in the shower. Very odd.

Rodrigo scored Spain’s goal. Moreno wasn’t even in the squad

Unless I’m missing something

Maybe it was a repeat or something, it was some Arabic channel and my Arabic is a bit rusty, was only a clip anyway, did he score in qualifiers?

Edit : nope, no Moreno goal at all, I think I'm getting early onset dementia...

Noticed a cheeky tweet from bet365:

"Lionel Messi: Games - 47 Goals - 38 �� "Back to his best." ���� Mohamed Salah: Games - 44 Goals - 38 �� "Form of his life." ���� Cristiano Ronaldo: Games - 40 Goals - 43 �� "Past his best."

Charlie19

I wish they'd keep all those stats to themselves.

A little bit of me died tonight because he scored against the almighty Ronaldos Portugal.

Grayditch

A lot of me laughed.

Vicxas

Christ I'm so bored with no football on

J Mysterio
