The Official Liverpool Thread - Part 2

[Donald Trump]

Donny and Mary...King and Queen of the strawman argument.

Bring out your net spend chart there again..

Between 2005 and 2013 feegie had a positive net spend. I've never mentioned it because it is a BS argument. He 9nly had it because of one player mainly, you know that guy who doesn't press.

He was still buying very expensive players.

As for your comments about Klopp keeping Liverpool competitive, so what? 6 times chanpions of Europe being competitive is the bare minimum. Ye have a genius manager, who with the right backing could bloody dominate, but he's hamstrung by crap owners.

Your owners won't spend a dime over budget to help the manager keep up with City. Again a supine fan base, eternally grateful for a league title will settle for "being competitive ".

Liverpool fans, trust me on this. YOUR OWNERS ARE JUST AS BAD.

You're just lucky you have a genius at work, like United did for 8 years of the cunts. He sold coutihno and they "gave" him that money for Alison and VVD. He then won a CL and an EPL.

Then they stopped funding him. Now he gets a bit of spare change down the sofa every summer and he still got jota. But the other signings will never be enough to keep up with City.

Keep singing the reds have got no money but we'll still win the league though. With klopps genius it is not impossible but it's not bloody likely either.

BTW yer owners are fucking loaded and could easily fund a few transfer mad summers. They won't though. Why? They are the Glazers with better PR.

I'm at a bit of a loss to what your actual point is Phil m8.


Liverpool's owners spend slightly less than their direct rivals but they dont?

Is that what you're saying?

I know. They've proven us both wrong.

No more net spend cups for you lot.

 

[Lee Bushwacker]

Can someone please explain to Lee what "neck and neck" means?

Liverpool desire to be better than City in terms of PL titles won. Not the other way round!

Nice run of games for Kelleher after several months sitting on the bench,
hope he stays at Liverpool-has proved to be a good backup keeper but may want to move on.

May likely to be against teams all in no man’s land as well, barring a surprise season, which would be helpful if still in the hunt going down the home straight.

Quite possibly.

I see City have Chelsea as their second last game, which could be interesting.

Man City: Premier League 2022/23 fixtures and schedule

Champions Manchester City begin their Premier League title defence with a trip to West Ham on Sunday August 7, with the game live on Sky Sports at 4.30pm; City conclude the season at Brentford on May 28.

I was hoping they'd have a tough first few weeks, to give them a chance of wobbling while Haaland beds in. But aside from West Ham, which is a tough first game, their first couple of months are pretty manageable....though Crystal Palace have proven to be their nemesis in recent seasons, so who knows.
