    One good thing to come out of the England game last night was Henderson picking up another yellow meaning he is suspended for their game v Montenegro on 14/11, so he'll be somewhat rested between the City and Palace games. Busy time ahead for games.

    They also play Kosovo three days later - I'd assume they'll include him in the squad and use him in that game anyway.

    Any word as to why Trent was left out for these two games?

    idea nicked from a great site (TM)

    A Liverpool starting 11 that cost a Pogba (90m Sterling) but could still win a game or three

    Adrian
    Free
    TAA---Gomez--Matip--Robbo
    Free-4.5m--Free--8m
    Miner-Wijnaldum
    Free--25m
    Shaqiri
    13m
    --Brewster-Firmino--Origi
    Free-29m-11m

    Total cost 90.5 million. Firmino is listed as 37m but that was with all the clauses triggered.

    Simply put - he's second choice for England.

    Most assists for a full back in a season and a European Cup medal ain't all that, ya know!

    So basically you ignored clauses to suit your argument...

    Interesting that of that 11 there's probably only 4/5 first choice starters.. and you've left out the then world record free paid for a goal keeper and defender... But anyways any pet in a storm and all that....

    Also pretty poor attempt to get at the opposition as this has been in the public forum for weeks. I'd even go as far as to say some of your friends that you love talking about might've posted this up already.

    You appear to have quite ignored the whole point of the post - field a LFC starting XI for the price of a Pogba.

    If Firmino was bought for 29 million then that's fair enough. Anyway I'm on the Liverpool thread not the general PL one or the Man Utd one so I'll plough on regardless of your concerns.


    As for Potentially Pilsbury Doughboy, have you thought about actually contributing?

    Firmino only did cost £29m. It was £22m rising to £29m.

    Ye Bobby cost a total of £29m Liverpool paid £21m plus £8m in add-ons which I'm guessing have been met by now as they were appearance based for Liverpool and Brazil.

    I ****ing love that film, that whole scene was improvised from a personal experience the actor had. David Patrick Kelly is also in the Crow and is brilliant in it.

    Transfermarket wrong again! It feels like Hoffenheim should be allowed to have another 29 million somehow.

    Also I just realised half that team is freebies - so FSG out.

    Don't you have to be on Boards 6 months before you can apply to a poster in the soccer forum?

    We will have a while to wait before they contribute and we see some interesting content.

    It's a total cesspit

    I occasionally went on there after a notable fixture to soak up the fume but now wouldn't even recommend reading it for a laugh. After the initial 'ha-ha' it just gets depressing

    To have access to the forum you need to be on boards for one month and to have made 50 posts AFAIK, He joined on 09-10-2019, as things stand I regard Potentially Pilsbury Doughboy as abusing his current "non status". What are the chances of him applying to join this forum? Pretty small I'd say.

    I would imagine it's the same on most fan-specific sites. I have friends who consume a lot of football content via fan sites and it's baffling how warped it is. It's not club-specific but by isolating your viewpoints to that sort of medium, it's no surprise to see a very skewed view develop.

    The General Premier League thread on here is a dumpster fire a lot of the time but imagine that with just one set of fans posting and no response? It'd be bizarre.

    If the only contribution isn’t a Kenny powers gif followed by account closure I’m going to be disappointed.

    De Gea gone off injured with a muscle problem. Not sure what to make of that if he is out of Sunday's game, he is getting increasingly reliable for a clanger these days, how times have changed.

    In theory it was to make it a little more difficult for people to make quick accounts just to come in and act the langer. Just think how many language apps would be getting plugs if it wasn't there!

    Seriously though, when you see just how horrible most football forums are, it's definitely better to have some sort of basic effort/time filter to gain access.

    If you do name them, you have to do it Colleen Rooney style with a lengthy post explaining your reasons like your Hercule Poirot and then at the end finish with a simply “it’s........”.

    I've said it before and I'll give my 2 cents again. Imo I think a small donation of a euro should be needed to post on certain forums or actually for any form of social media. This would dramatically reduce the amount of trolling on the internet. Too many people out there hiding behind bogus accounts free to abuse whoever they like.

    FSG took over the club 9 years ago today.

    Getting rid of Roy and bringing King Kenny back to win the only trophy he hadn't won as a manager in England.


    Then bringing in Klopp who won number 6!

    They have done amazing in those 9 years.

    He's over 21 now. The bigger issue is how Foden got on that list and he's barely played and Mbappe is left off it?

    Between who's on it I'd say it's between Sancho, De Ligt and Felix.

    Mbappé missed out last year too - he was expected to be the second player to win it twice but didn't make the cut.

    Organisers said at the time that their reasoning was that the award is to "launch one new face each year" so they wanted to omit previous winners.

    Now I'm not sure how that tallies - de Ligt is on it this year and won it last year, for example.

    Romero is a very good goalkeeper, and De Gea is not consistent as he used to be, but still De Gea is probably the only keeper in the league capable of putting in a freak performance of numerous world class saves in one game, winning his team points they have no right to win (I'm thinking back to the 3-1 against Arsenal a couple of years ago as one example, or I think there was a 0-0 against us too where we dominated and de Gea won them a point).

    Him being out can only be a good thing, he always raises his game against us and I feel like some of our attackers may even have a bit of a mental block about facing him.

    It makes sense. Opposition players probably have the same when facing Alisson. The 2 players keepers are so good at shot-stopping that the forward knows that they shot on goal has to be almost perfect in order to beat the keeper and score. They know that the shot has to be right in the corner, which forces the attacker to make sure that their shot is exactly correct. Hitting the target is not good enough.
