Mad that Liverpool finish 3rd in the end.

It is. After all the gloom about the chances of making top 4 , myself included, 3rd is amazing.

Mentality Monsters.

Incredible to drag themselves up to third with the season of injuries, loss of forms and shocking VAR decisions.

Fantastic to see.

Absolutely. Delighted for Sadio, poor form this season, questioned by many, but never gave up and came good in the end.

Good end to a poor campaign.

Agent Coulson

Never doubted myself.

However what amazes me is they had the 3rd best defensive record.


If Mane had scored the guilt edge chances he had during the season they would have finished a lot closer to City.

martyos121

We had absolutely no right to finish in the top four given our injury crisis this season, and the turgid football we played for months as a result.

And yet we finish third. Mentality monsters are back!

Fromvert

Once those Leicester players where caught breaking covid protocols when in a top 4 race you knew they weren't fully in it.

But what an end to the season

We can just put a lid on this one and move on, add a few players and give City a go next year.

Fair play to you for believing Toby.

I doubted it BIG time but you didn't (you were mental btw:D).

What a ****ing round-a-bout season!

THAT WILL ****ING DO PIG!

Yeah I wrote them off as well,I have no problem holding my hand up and admitting it,thought top 4 was gone,fair play to klopp and all the players

Nijmegen

Not a classic season, but a really great finish.

Osmosis Jones

So after ALL THAT DRAMA the Top 4 is still the 4 teams everyone would've called at the start of the season

Dillonb3

Good to end the season in decent form. Thiago looks settled in and will be a beast next year, Jota will chip in with goals when fit. Going to need a replacement for Wijnaldum

machiavellianme

A nice touch from the pitchside signs. Thank you for your support.

26 points from 30 in last 10 games answers your question. Not so mad

How are we only 5 points off Utd and their brilliant season :pac:

I should have used the rhetorical question font

Well well, well.

Finished 3rd after such a poor season. We probably shouldn't doubt that Liverpool team and manager. Brilliant stuff

noodler

Can only be excited at the thought of next season.

Well done to Williams and Philips. I really don't expect to see many minutes next year but massive salvage job.

Zak Flaps

I'd like to see the term Mentality Monsters end today.

gimli2112

I think in terms of greatest achievements ever in football, in descending order
3. Leicester winning the league
2. This
1. Putting manners on the blues last year


Mane marvellous

Osmosis Jones

Lads we actually secured Champions League football because our fcuking goalkeeper scored a 95th minute winner

Fitz*

Nice to finish the season on a positive note and secure CL football again for next season.

Worst season in 5 years and it's a 3rd place finish. Will be 5 consecutive years of CL football now too. A good standard & baseline to set.

Great turnaround from Klopp & the players the last month or so. Best form in the league the last 9(?) or so games.

Meanwhile Vardy's bouncing himself off defenders and screaming three times a game to plaudits of clever play

Its because he's English, innit

Seeing Vardy laughing and joking with the spurs players at the end shows how much it means to him.

Osmosis Jones

Crazy to think we'd probably have challenged for the title very closely if we literally just forfeited that game against Everton at the start of the season

mosstin

Worst Champions Ever.


Up your collective ****ing arses, each and every one of you.

noodler

What's our longest consecutive stint of CL football?

~Rebel~

Getting 4th would've been a huge achievement from where we were 10 games ago, but getting 3rd is out of this world! Really thought Chelsea would be opening the gap the way they were playing, not closing it!

Huge huge end to the season, it means that despite everything that happened this year, next season is effectively a do-over. We get to come back with a fully fit squad, and no penalty for having a bad one. Losing out on CL would've been really painful, but now, as the man himself said, We Go Again.

Gbear

Well these lads proved me wrong and no two ways about it.

I suppose, we were never as bad as we thought we were. The string of terrible results really were anomalous. Even with the depleted team it totally defied logic that we lost game after game. There was no lucky let offs, or sendings off, or penalties, or poxy deflected goals in our favour. It might've been a weird case of statistical bunching, but it was incredibly depressing, and to come out the far side still able to grind out results is a huge credit to the side. Whatever luck we might've had lately was something we had none of when the season was at it's worst, so it'd be ridiculous to suggest our place in the top 4 was anything other than richly deserved.

murpho999

Finishing 3rd and 26 points from 30 should silence the doubters and people will see that this team is not that far off and if players are back next season and a couple of signings then they'll be PL contenders next season.

gimli2112

Well a cold Thursday night in Uzbeckhestan can go **** itself

Unreal when you consider we started the run with relegation form having lost 7 of the previous 10.

I'd like to see some signings of course, but once they're all fit we're contenders with the squad exactly as it is right now

DrumSteve

An in form Thiago in front of Van Dijk with fab and Hendo beside him is going to be a sight to behold.

Knex*

Looking forward to hearing from Klopp.

Perhaps one of his best ever achievements, considering the context?

Agent Coulson

We finished closer to City 17 points than they did to us last season 18 points.

Worst title defense ever.

We saw this for 5 minutes against Everton in October and it was a sight to behold.

Tell ya what, that kit's after growing on me over the last 90 minutes!

3rd.

What were we stressed about?

Yeah, but an even more in form Thiago.

9 from 77 to 85, 6 from 05 to 10. This will be 5.

Somehow only 5 points off 2nd too!

doc_17

2 months ago I said that I thought Thiago was a good player but it just wasn’t working. It’s working this past two months. Getting Fabinho in along with him had been the making of him.

Thank you Gini

Agent Coulson

Thiago was the man over the last 10 games controlled everything and made the team tick.

Statistically, it’s our most successful kit ever so far. There’s a lot to love about it given the 100% winning record.

Fromvert

When we do qualify for the Champions League we make the final 30% of the time. Quite the record that

I'm sure he'll feel better when he sees his new paycheck and signing-on fee. Pity a deal couldn't have been done to keep him.

Girly Gal

Great to finish third after such a terrible season, very important that we secured CL football next season. Would have liked Leicester to have made it too, especially with Chelsea losing.
It was a season to forget really, but, we've had a positive finish to the season which I feel was important for next season. We won't have any problem attracting any players now that we have CL. I think this season should stand to us for next season, we've found another way to win, hopefully we won't have the same level of injuries next season and we have a decent transfer window this summer.
