Liverpool Thread - Premier League Champions* 2019/20

seems to be a common theme in the PL threads

its fine, nice to know people are thinking of us.

anfield was so dead last nyt. your supporters need to get behind the team more.

Is Nelsen still injured?

That OG was fantastic. 

Just been watching the build up to the blackburn goal and I don't know what on earth lucas and raul were doing pressing so high as it left a large gap between the back 4 and the midfield, thus in turn causing soto to have to step out of the back line to pick up gamst and leaving a massive hole between carra and skirtl. Pretty basic stuff imo. Still don't like lucas.

This ones for you El Nino

You must be having a larf?!

This was recorded just before kick off:

YNWA hasn't been sung like that at Anfield for quite some time.

If anything they were just enjoying watching some footy for once.

What do they usually watch when they go to Anfield?

Sign from that same match:

This season Roy's had a travelling circus with him. Lot's of freaks and monkey's which draw attention away from the abysmal on field display.

Speaking of Roy, sounds like there was a pre-match meeting between Roy, the players and possibly kenny that saw an agreement was met that allowed the players to use their own tactics (ie 4231, press higher, attack etc) for the Blackburn match. It was such a 180' turn on play so far this season.

Also talk that Kenny is now pretty much in charge. He has control of transfer targets and is basically overseeing things now. Roy relegated to 'coach' until a replacement can be identified.

We are on the way I reckon. Nice to see us dominate a game, even against a depleted Blackburn. The confidence will help, we did wobble towards the end huh. Nice to see Torres get a goal too.

Still to play Chelsea, Tottenham and Villa out of last seasons top 6.

Chelsea at home in a couple of weeks...

still doesnt look right seeing joe cole in a liverpool getup

How about this!!!!!

Classic. Those internet terrorists and their photoshop, do they know no boundaries!   

Hopoate in disguise.

Naize to get a win for sure. Regardless of how rubbish Blackburn were and how they just sat back. So good to see us pressing the ball and playing so much higher. Easily the best performance of the season (although the last 20 minutes was shocking.. Did they start listening to Roy at that point?) Good to see a Torres goal. Lucas ran the show. Kyrgiakos was boss. Carra's own goal was hilarious.. Absolutely awful defending all round, really! Ownwards and upwards.. Bolton away next? 

 nice win for you lads, just to show my support of your cause, I've got $50 riding on you not getting relegated this year

You're all heart

to do what exactly? After seeing what maxi did to soto I'll take a gamble on babel thanks!

Seriously thou I do like the look of babel at times but he's a bit a of one trick pony and loses the ball more often than I care to think about! So atm maxi.

Football = Maxi
Rapping = Babel

I think Maxi offers a lot more. His work rate is definitely way higher.

World Coach of the Year nominees:

Carlo Ancelotti (Chelsea), Vicente del Bosque (Spain), Sir Alex Ferguson (Manchester United), Pep Guardiola (FC Barcelona), Joachim Low (Germany), Jose Mourinho (Inter Milan/Real Madrid), Oscar Tabarez (Uruguay), Louis van Gaal (Bayern Munich), Bert van Marwijk (Holland) and Arsene Wenger (Arsenal).

Where the hell is Roy??

what you rekon the chances are of nando scoring a few goals against bolton then limping off with a few mins to go??

would be just our luck him gettn injured when starting to find form

But, but, but, he's one of the best coaches in Europe...

You shouldn't be saying things like that!

Let's hope so!

Former Real Madrid coach Manuel Pellegrini says he has been contacted by Liverpool regarding the possibility of replacing Roy Hodgson as manager.
"I had lots of offers, some that I like. Ideally, I would like to find a club in December," Pellegrini told the Spanish press.

"Yes, Liverpool contacted me. It is a great club with many Spanish players who I already know, and it is my intention to work in the Premier League."

A poor start to the season has meant Hodgson's future has been the subject of much speculation since the takeover by NESV, even though Liverpool's new owners have backed him publicly.

Liverpool claimed only their second win of the season on Sunday against Blackburn, and lie in 18th place in the Premier League.
Manuel Pellegrini

I watch for a laugh too.

Quite a good article here about jonjo, possibly will soon be in the starting line-up or ahead of Poulsen anyway...also what has happended to pacheco? He seems to have been a bit quiet of late.

Yep, the kids got the goods.

I've been reading a bit about what NESV did at the sox and their strategies around finding players. They have a policy of not signing players around the 30yr old age and definitely not older. The likes of Poulsen and Carra's latest 2 yr extension will never happen under them. They scout for the young up and coming players like Shelvey, Lucas and co. They build the player up and sell just before the player starts dropping down the otherside of the hill. Usually for more than they paid for the player in the first place.

They also won't spend copious amounts on a player either so the cash that gets spent on the likes of Kaka, Ronaldo et al won't ever happen. But they will invest heavily in young talent.

I think this is good news for Shelvey, Pacheco, Wilson and I wouldn't be surprised if Insua was brought back next season. This is of course bad news for Roy as it goes against everything he's done at both Fulham and so far with us. Even if they keep Roy for a bit longer at the end of the day NESV and Roy head in two quite different directions, a relationship that won't last.
