Turns out that picture I posted might have been Photoshopped anyway. You can't believe anything you see these days. That said, I stand by my statement that Lovren is an idiot. If you don't like that I think that, I don't care.

That's it.

Lean into it.

3 goals tmw. 2 for Salah 1 for Mane. Boom

I have a horrible feeling we'll struggle tomorrow:mad:

Can I blame Keita?

Just curious why people are annoyed when it's mentioned that Keita has been rubbish? We all expected way way more from him considering the way people were tooting his horn and bigging him up as an instant upgrade, then waiting a year to sign him. No two ways about it he has contributed practically nothing but the good news is we're still doing decent enough without him.

If you've been reading the thread you'll be well aware aware of why it's annoying. I don't see why you don't get it?

It's absolutely nothing to do with Keita being favoured above Henderson at all, it's because ANY mention of Keita, in any way, shape or form, regardless of context, and yourdeadright had an unbridled urge to say he's underwhelmed and disappointed. Repeatedly. At every single mention of the player. Without fail. And THAT grates. I don't know why you don't see this?

The general consensus among Liverpool fans is that he's underwhelmed, but has shown enough where we're hopeful that he'll come good. We don't need to be told any more, at every single mention of the player, that he's underwhelmed. It's apparent.

Game Day and start of the biggest end of season run we have had since 2014. Plenty of positivity Redmen and going 2-0 win today!

Id love a proper whipping, like we usee to give to spurs 4 or 5 years ago. 5-0 boys.
Keita hat-trick and sturridge double:p

I imagine some people's p1ss is boiling as Henderson is ahead of Keita in the pecking order.
No doubt there's a certain anxiety level too that a big fee player hasn't contributed anything of note in his first season.

Strange either way really, imo

That wouldn't bother me anyway. I'm happy for Klopp to pick the team as he sees fit as he's the one seeing them perform every day.

As for the big fee - spending large sums on players to improve the starting 11 has become the norm for all teams competing on multiple fronts. Hell, even for teams that aren't competing that applies also without mentioning names!!

Not every piece of business is going to work out perfectly and that's fine. There's no need for anyone to get emotionally attached to such things.

I think Naby's time will come next season either way. He'll either push on or show he's not quite up to it. No more to it than that.

Whats lovren done now

It's Martin Atkinson so we didn't.

Still raging he didn't give Keita that penalty vs Leicester at Anfield.

Dier out is probably more of a blow for us.

Always strikes me as one that goes out of his way to try show he's not swayed by the home crowd.

That's 7 straight wins for City, another 7 wins and it would be 14 wins on the bounce. Not impossible for them as they've done it before, but it's still a rare feat, and to do it on a title run in would be impressive.
We have two wins in a row, another 7 wins to make it 9 in a row, more feasible. Most Premier League games we've won consecutively is 11, we've won 9 in a row earlier in season, mid Nov-Jan 1st. I think if we match it we'll give ourselves every chance.

They won 18 in a row last season but I agree its not a common thing. After Cardiff they have Palace, Spurs and United. If they don't drop points there I can't see them dropping them at all.

£12m man Ryan Kent equalises for rangers, well taken goal

Yeah nicely done, still had a lot to do himself there after receiving the pass.
