Yeah let them enjoy it, I'm annoyed now but hopefully come May 17th i'll be comatose with alcohol poisoning.

That unbeaten nonsense was just more distraction the lads didn't need. Get a few leagues in the bag then we can start thinking about unbeaten titles

Liverpool proving today it takes something special to be invincible and not even a very good team can do it. It takes true greatness.

Great interview there from Foster and fair play to Watford they totally deserved the win, they truly out played Liverpool all over the pitch.

MOTD is on @ 10.30pm tonight. Worth a watch for sure

Ah shure I'd argue being European, world and soon to be league champions is a better barometer of true greatness.

Can't speak for other Pool fans but of all the things I saw as a priority going into this game, staying unbeaten in the league was pretty low on my list. Not the first time we lost this season so nothing to see here really in my opinion.

It’s nice we could give all the newly converted Arsenal fans a day to remember, and still tomorrow they’ll wake up with the sobering thought that we’re 22 points clear at the top and still 4 wins at most away from winning the title.

Also nice to see the idiotic opinions about the league being of a poor standard shut down when a bottom three side can hammer the runaway league leaders. Most already knew that was BS, at least now there’s concrete proof for the deluded.

Kits where to heavy not used to the away ones,
Has to be the reason

The obvious thing is that Klopp is just a nice guy. Kid from Donegal, a United fan, literally wrote to him last week asking for this. Surprised nobody else tried it.

I've already said treble is the one I want, United 99 season still remains the best single season.

I want to win the Premier League. If it's with 79pts having lost all remaining games so be it. Just want to win the thing.

Desperately want to win the Champions League as well, but not at the expense of the Premier League.

Any way will do.

Winning the European cup back to back would an outstanding feat and put this team right up there. Treble would be the icing.

Could get very nervy yet, Everton and City away in the next 4 games, I think Liverpool fans hopes to have it done by the City game that won't happen now

And will remain as United went unbeaten in Europe that season and played PL teams in every single round of the FA Cup

Are villa going down? I like Watford, Villa never look like they belong in the premier league:)

That's the first time I've ever heard your bonuses about United treble season. They're cup competitions you get through the ties and win nothing else matters.

Cypher_sounds

People care about these things. Deal with it.

The fact that Kew has brought up the United fa cup run shows he cares. He’s not a nobody so point proven.

citytillidie

Shows how much this run for Liverpool have hurt people lol

People compare teams every day. This thread this week has all about comparing this team to this team

It goes on and on. Btw I don't really give a hoots. Treble is a Treble. This liverpool team are great team today does not matter. But I'm pointing out everyone still does this team v that team.

It's gone in for years and will continue to. Way it is.

Ben Foster’s kit clashed with the referee’s. It was a disgrace.

How is Mane meant to throw himself to the ground if he thinks the referee is constantly standing over him?

This season has been a game changer for some. Probably thought they'd never see the day. And on the back of a champions league too. Eating some people up. Weird stuff.

I'm not crying at all, just saying poor effort on all parts , don't see how you'd get that I'm crying about it from that post I couldn't care about the jokes being honest

I think that's United fans.

Enjoying the lemon (Liverpool loss) but deep down know it's bitter (because their own team is 38 points behind them).

Could be wrong though.

You're not wrong.

United are 38 points behind.

Liverpool were worried about Corona Virus, and they should have been worried about Sarrs*

Failed to do an invincibles. Now let's see can they do a treble. I think pool dlfans need a reality check, great side but probably not one of the greatest sides In premiership history, it's just a poor league this season and liverpool are good

I think it's up there with the best depth ever from 10-20. It's just that 3-6 aren't as strong as usual

Ye because it’s easy to do an invincibles. Try posting next time not after walking in from the pub.

How does it go from we are going to be invincibles to thank God we lost the pressure is off.....if you cant handle the invincibles oressure at 22 points clear how are you likely going to handle the treble pressure...

Fact is liverpool have been bang average for about a month now. Norwich, Villa, Atletico the defending has bee sub par at best and its caught up.

I dont see you going any further In the CL or FA CUP
