Like could compare wayne rooney(5) to Lucas and united fans think he's done terrible same with martial with 5, but different standards i suppose. Coutinho has all of 6 and he is your star player:rolleyes:

Plus that was match day thread which wasn't against liverpool but yet lot's of liverpool supporter's in there.:pac: I need a laugh but, some of the deluded posters in here.

When did it happen, at what point in history did Liverpool become a club aiming to just compete, not win. It happened at some point, and then the fans were conditioned to see it as normal. I can never see it though, I never will. I really think we have to aim to win league next year, we are so close, even this year was our year but for some very strange results. A good season next season is a League and CL double.

That's not even a great season to you no? Sure while we are at it we may aswell throw in all the domestic cups and let's try to beat Chicago Fire in the final of the world cup too!! As for when did our expectations change....well, I have never experienced a league win as a pool fan and stopped "expecting" to win the league every season when I was about 12, I don't know if this helps answer your question tho.

And I'm talking offsides, corners and throws, not a tackle that's open to interpretation or anything like that. Now, they all seemed to go our way but I still couldn't help but notice how poor a performance it was from the officials. Roles reversed and I'd be unhappy.
SuperTortoise wrote: » To be fair he never said a leauge and CL double would be the ONLY senario to warrant us having a good season, he's right in what he said, we should be out to win the league every year, the lower leagues are littered with once great clubs, Forest, Villa etc that lowered their expectations year after year. It's a slippery slope and no club is immune to it.
noodler wrote: » Thought it was a foul on Cout that injured him. Also thought there was a blatant shove in a similar area in the first half we should have had. Agree on the offsides though. Overall I don't think there was huge amount into it. Deeney had a couple of smashes and a blatant trip on Mignolet which could easily have gotten a yellow or higher as well.

His knee slide alone is worth 100k a week. Solid performance last night. Great to see Ming catching practically everything. We badly need to keep Lucas for next season as well, need that experience if we're going to be fighting on four fronts. He's been doing a job for us all season and I cant really see a reason to let him go (unless he wants to leave that is!). If we beat southampton next I think we could secure a top four finish.
