Ah well, it was a fun two years I guess.

David Luiz would be serving a 3 match ban for that.
I was initially on the fence, but the more you think about it, the more it is just a clear foul.
However accidental it is, he's still impeded him from playing the ball and scoring a goal.
It's one thing bombing your title defence, but losing the derby at Anfield surely isn't happening.
That is never a penalty and the fact that the ref was called to look again shows the VAR official feels so too. That he half heartedly glances at the screen at one angle before fucking off again is even worse.
But this should not overlook how terrible Liverpool were but for about a 10 minute spell of the 2nd half.
First win there since 1999. Jesus. Everton will go on holiday now and finish bottom half.
Curtis Jones off again and we go to shit. This Nazi cunt needs to learn.
Lol at penalty decision too.
Not sure what Trent was meant to do there beyond curl up in the fetal position.
Anyways, lol at the end of days talk. It's a season where we've been fucked by injuries in a mega way and by VAR in every other game. And lol at all the stats about defeats at Anfield etc when they're playing in empty stadiums.
Yeah against Everton.
Yeah, I'm sure the color of the empty seats surrounding the field made a massive difference.
At Goodison Park even the bricks seethe.
We haven’t been fucked by VAR any more or less than any other team. Get a grip.
The end of days thing is simply from watching the way the players play at the minute. There is no intensity in our play - that doesn’t come from having two quality centre backs.
We’re the 10th best team away from home too, so your comments about our home form don’t hold much form. We’re still the second best home team, in fact.
Anyone who thinks that wasn't a penalty in the Liverpool game is an absolute retard. Alexander-Arnold made 100% sure he was bringing him down.
Without having watched all their games in detail, Liverpool simply strike me as a side on the other side of the bell curve. You can arrest that with rejuvenation, as various sides/managers have shown in the past, but bringing a purring Thiago into midfield is not rejuvenation - they need fresh energy more than class. Ferguson used to be the master at this. He'd keep the parts he needed (Giggs, usually) and recruit well to build his next team while keeping the floor high.
I'm not sure Klopp has built a second side before in his career, so it'll be an interesting test for him. I think he will probably need to abandon his boy Bobby Firmino who seems to me always to have been his favourite.
Well it comes from having our first choice midfielders in midfield, rather than stuck at center back.
Maybe I'm just in denial but I don't see how bringing back Van Dijk, getting Henderson and Fabinho back in the midfield, and Jota off the bench (plus shunting Thiago to Catalonia where he belongs) wouldn't have them challenging for the title again. Plus the stadium crowds (home or away) for INTENSITY. Klopp definitely deserves a lot of the blame in terms of motivation, but it has really been night and day since the pandemic started.
I think it's almost become a bit too ploddy. Liverpool in the previous 2 seasons, beat teams through tiring them out with and without the ball. The press seems less effective now and it's not helping that Salah is the only forward looking likely to score. The ball also moves too slowly now.
Jota was helping massively before the injury, but perhaps one more is needed to come in and freshen things up.
We played the game with our 6th and 7th choice CBs. That would fuck every club in the world up, this is not some fucking bigger problem than simply that.
Got fucking idiots saying Salah, Mane and Firmino have lost it
That is probably the most stonewall penalty i have ever seen. Its totally irrelevant whether Trenty can “do anything about it”. He’s sitting in front of DCL for shits sake
Fulham only 3 behind Newcastle and play them last game of the season.
Fulham lucky not to concede a penalty.
I see Chelsea are just turning into the Bundesliga XI after they buy Sancho and Haaland
Lingards going to be a great signing for West Ham.
Manager of the year trophy straight into Davie Moyes’ empty trophy cabinet.
Any of these Spurs fans that convinced themselves Mourinho wasn't an absolute shadow of himself.n
Remember when they were title contenders about 6 weeks ago. When will the media learn that what happens in October has nothing to do with where you are in March.
West Ham really building momentum. They look good.
Grealish and Cash out for a few weeks. Probably lose today.
Did he win a play-off final at Preston? You get a trophy for that, probably.
If I remember correctly, that's also a plate. Maybe he only knows how to win Plates not Cups.
He needs an MBE for that. Also, turns out he didn't win the play-offs but smashed the 2nd Division title. He's lost two play-off finals, both with Preston. And, yes, it's a plate.He left London during the pandemic and worked in his home village in Lancashire delivering fruit and vegetables to those in need.
He also won a couple of things as a player, including the Scottish Premiership.
He won the Taffs Tavern Manager of the Decade.
The Moyes turnaround is a proper narrative-buster, especially for the hipster end of things.
'If he was called Davide Moiesi...'
The problem David Moyes has is being referred to as 'former Manchester United manager'.
Spilling one was rather fitting seeing as the commentators were still in the process of blowing him off about how much he catches stuff
Are Tierney and Saka still arsenals best players this season?
"Raheem Sterling back in London where he grew up, and he grew up to meet that header." Ffs.
Lukaku donning it again. What a man.
Im looking for the stats to show how many times Xhaka gets dribbled past. He stays getting spun. Players do a fake shot in front of him and he turns his back to you
I can't see the flaw in this new rule that allows you to make a free sub if you knock out your opponent.
Did Gary Neville just say John Stones hockey checking Aubameyang was 'easing him out'?
I've genuinely got no concept of how a good 70% of the core rules of football work anymore.
1 win in four for Simeone. Lovely bottle job the cards.
Stephen Warnock thinks we should take the game to United. Shut up, Stephen.
