Hoping a New Thread may fix the posting issues.
We are winning it Sunday.
I'm getting in a bottle of champagne for tomorrow night just in case
🍾
If Arsenal lose tomorrow Liverpool could play any 11+5 subs =16 in the last 5 games to get them medals. Relations of the 97, Paul McCartney, John Bishop or Stevie G. It would annoy a lot of people ;)
Anyone except Chiesa that is
You don't have to have played five games to get a medal.
Would the guard of honour have to be against spurs then?
Might arsenal want to avoid doing that?
Bence Bocsák] Stefan Bajcetic averages the most interceptions (7 per 90) among midfielders in La Liga this season. He also averages the most successful defensive actions (13.57 per 90). It has been a brilliant loan spell for him at Las Palmas so far.
Bit of news on Bajcetic.
Every team does it after you win it so they won't avoid it
really? I thought it was just the next team you face.
Yeah usually all do but they can decide not to do it if they wanted but can't see why they wouldn't
So I’ve a chance?
I don't recall a bitter title race with Arsenal, not sure why they'd refuse to give us a guard of honour , Slot talks positively about Arteta too much if anything.
If you have incriminating photos of LFC staff, I don't see why not!
I'd rather Arsenal don't lose tomorrow (though a draw would be nice thank you!). Winning the title *at* Anfield on Sunday would be perfect!
Agree 100%.
When's the last time he started a game?
Chiesa is like ……………………..
You do according to the premier league:
The champions are given 40 commemorative medals made of silver, which are 2.25in (5.7cm) in diameter.
They can be distributed to the manager, players and officials, as the club see fit, as long as every player who has made at least five Premier League appearances during the title-winning season gets one.
Additional medals may only be presented with the consent of the Premier League Board, and that will only be granted if more than 39 players have made at least five PL appearances during the campaign.

I think it will be really cheap of the club to deny him a premier league medal if the thinking is that it will save a few mill on a bonus.
Is that just as a starting place or if he plays again?
That's not what that says.
Just read it again, veeeeery slowly.
I think it would be ridiculous, even though I know that's not what it says, to have a situation where you'd be paying "a few mill" for a medal for someone
I think people think that because a player who isn't that good only costs that much that it's nothing to the club. But a couple of million pounds isn't nothing, that's more than what the LFC Foundation raises for a single Legends game every March.
So anyone who has played 5 matches or more gets a medal, and then the club can give out the rest of the 40 they get to who they want. If you have more players than 40 that played 5 matches then more medals will be given, seems to me that is what that says.
At the moment we have 22 players that has played more than 5 matches. We have 6 coaches for the first team and then 16 other staff listed on the staff page of the club. Not sure if all of them is entitled to a medal, I would assume only the coaches would be. That would mean there is around 10 medals that the club can give out to who they want.
I read it as only the manager is guaranteed a medal,if more than thirty nine players start five games then they can get more medals.
Yep that's how I read it
So if you have 39 players playing 5 games then that means all + the manager get a medal and you can apply for more to give to other players or coaches
But if its less than that it's expected that 40 medals is enough
But I'd say that's the official rule and you could still apply e.g. if you have 38 players playing more than 5 and a 39th who played 4 it would seem silly not to allow an avenue for extra medals to be awarded to the coaches. But they have to have a line somewhere
Maybe this is why Slot doesn't like rotation, 22 medals for the squad then stick the rest on eBay
2 Keepers, 4 full backs
4 CBs (incl JQ and Gomez)
Midfield trio + Curtis, Harvey, Endo
Front 5
=21
Who am I missing?
Other poster is likely counting Chiesa also but only 4 of his 12 appearances were in the league
He will get to 5 anyway
Better late than never 🙂
Ok for the lads where reading comprehension is your strong suit, the club gets 40 medals, they MUST give one to anyone who has made 5 league appearances, but there is nothing stopping the club giving one to somebody on 4/3/2/1/0 appearances.
Am I the only person cheering for Palace tonight?
