    Still can’t understand how Liverpool haven’t conceded in so long with Alexander Arnold and Harvey Price next to each other in defence

    I know it's just pointless bitching, but Maguire was fouled by Gomez for the Liverpool goal.

    When is the earliest Liverpool can win this so it can just get written off as the most boring runaway title win since whenever?

    God knows how they've made such hard work.of.us there. We are fucking garbage.

    Think they need 10 more wins to mathematically guarantee it.

    I almost never saw Salah so happy to score a goal either. Really fun game.

    Liverpool could have won that 6-0. United are just an awful team. The only things that elevated them were occasional moments of spark from Martial, and the general sense of leadership when Mata came on. Everything else was dire.

    Leicester are also going off a cliff so should be a tremendous chase for 3rd and 4th between various appalling sides. Sheffield United could get in the mix if they have a run. So could Wolves.

    The 15 minutes after the break were relentless greatness. I don't know how that game didn't finish 6-2.

    I think that tired the team out and the introduction of Lallana seemed to remove some potency. Still aside from a couple of defensive lapses that was a good performance.

    On another day that could have got silly but you'd take a win irrespective of the scoreline. Win against Wolves and West Ham before the end of the month then that's got to be all she wrote. Our fixtures after that are more than winnable.

    Madness.

    Liverpool have 64 points now. In 12 different previous Premier League seasons we've got 64 or fewer after 38 games. We still have 16 games left. Sixteen.

    Assuming Man City keep winning until then that means we could seal it at the Etihad.

    Alisson has more Premier League assists than Lingard, since January 30th 2019.

    If you could get rid of one tonight and only one, who would it be? The other two have to remain forever more.

    Ole, Woodward or Glazers?

    Ole is bottom of the list by a margin, that'll sort itself out one way or t'other.

    If the Glazers go they'll probably be replaced by some even bigger set of cunts but might replaced Woodward.

    If you say Woodward but keep the Glazers then maybe they replace him with somebody similar.

    So given it doesn't matter I'll just say Woodward and by a margin because fuck him. That said I'd happily keep him at the club, just wouldn't give him any responsibility beyond lining up stupid sponsorships.

    And to be honest in this hypothetical scenario it sounds like whoever remains is immortal so we'd by default become the most interesting club.

    I love such hypothetical's. I made mention elsewhere though that since Glazers took over Man United have won five Premier League titles, four League Cups, an Fa Cup, six Charity Shields, the Europa League and a Champions League as well as a further two finals in that competition whilst spending over a billion pounds so it boggles the mind why supporters still want them out.

    Because they're relentless leeches who had most of that success by having one of the greatest managers of all time who could challenge and win with a handful of quality players surrounded by a load of absolute dross who'd been berated into overperforming. And then when he left threw enough money at it to for a couple of cups to come in. Broken clock, twice a day, etc.

    That was almost to a word what another Man United fan so then I ask, how are they to blame for being unable to replace one of the greatest managers of all time when said manager selected his replacement (Moyes) then they backed LvG and Mourinho and seemingly have backed Solksjaer in the last window as he outspent the entire division? I mean, what more can they actually do?

    Well, I could list a million reasons but I'll start and stop at replacing Rafa Benitez with Roy Hodgson. Glazers are saints compared to those two.

    I think the issue with the Glazers these days is that they just seem happy to sit there and let the club stagnate. They certainly did it on the cheap during the Alex Ferguson years, because 1) he enabled them to; and 2) those early debt interest payments were mental. But since then I don't think you could really accuse them of not putting the money up, because all of the managers have been backed to a decent extent. At the same time by all accounts Old Trafford is falling to bits, and in what other industry would Ed Woodward have been allowed to keep fucking things up for this long? Even if he excels at the commercial side of things, is it not beyond them to go over his head and appoint a Director of Football? They own the club, so ultimately they are responsible.
