You could see him going down the line and has to stop himself, especially when the City question was raised - ‘We were never [competitors]’, resounding back to his old quote of us somehow having a bigger squad.


Klopp is slowly being found out, at a few different levels.

Last season he could not adapt his tactics to cover for the injuries and play a game that suited the players available. He still played the same way.
This season teams have adapted to Liverpool's long diagonal ball tactic (as stated by another poster) and without Salah they would have been average.

For me Klopp's public persona is as fake as his teeth. Glimpses of the 'real' Klopp are emerging more often and it is not pretty, an arrogant bully in the mould of SAF.

Good summation, especially the part about the Dippers getting a GPC that controls the league. They want it, will they get it?
In the words of my Old Man, "Life will never be the same without Man City, so get it in while you can".

Wonder if there's a Finishing Thread on the dippers board.
It wasn't the defence that cost them tonight.

It’s really good how the media blow such smoke, with so many articles, about teams that are continuous runners-up.

Fuck me I am just on the outside of some lovely Irish Whiskey and ill tell you everything is fucking wonderful atm so happy days amigos

Scary! Don’t do whiskey too often, prefer the brandy; less harsh.

Great to see that all is good in your world and just raised a glass to you and yours ;-)


It's only the scotch that's scary, the Irish stuff is smooth as a babies bottom.

I thought everyone had agreed that Salah was the best player in the world.

Their left side did a great job on him to be fair. I thought Dewsbury-Hall was the best outfield player on the pitch last night. Never seen Salah kept so quiet.
Balotelli......that's a brilliant finish.

He probably realised he wouldn’t get another penalty for throwing himself the the ground after he’d missed the one he had so he was sulking.

Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta will miss the Premier League match against Manchester City on 1 January after testing positive for Covid-19 for a second time.

They had until Ronaldo rejoined the Rags.
Now we have a tie for the two best players in the world. Unless Messi moves to the Rags or Dippers, then it will be a three way tie.

Dippers have the best front three in the world, even though Firmino scores three goals a season.

Clumsy bugger. Didn't learn first time.
Didn't his last infection trigger the postponement of the entire league?

Had a bad experience on it when I was about 11, must’ve scarred me for life!

He’s a fucking dirty cunt who gets away with stuff that others don’t. Just like all the penalty’s they get, anybody would think the PL are trying to make a title race of it.

Dias not having an easy game. The Brentford centre forward proving a handful every now and then.
