Essential The Official Football (Soccer) Thread - The Slotification of Liverpool is nearly complete

All the Lukaku World Cup goodwill has evaporated overnight

Lacazette> Lukaku if we are to be honest.

OF COURSE PHILL fukkING JONES BOTTLES IT FOR US IN CUP GAME

Watched this shootout with my sister as soon as Jones stepped, she knew it was a wrap

Of course Jones misses

Does this dude have a lifetime contract or something

For real...

Is Lukaku ass or is he good?

I've been watching his whole career and I can't decide if he's a shytty player with flashes of brilliance or a brilliant player with flashes of shyttiness.

He's just about too good for Everton level teams but like 4 steps short of a #1 option for Top 6 teams.

He's a good striker, just very one dimensional. In the modern game, if you are gonna play with an out and out goal poacher, then you better have some very creative players around him and workhorses in the middle of the park. Moreover, if you're a pure No. 9 a la Icardi, Kane, Immobile, Higuain, Dzeko et al if you have once chance in a game, then you need to bury it. This is where Lukaku falls short. He'll be anonymous all game, get a single chance to win/tie the game and then he'll miss it.

Look at Icardi against Tottenham. Dude was a ghost the entire game then bang, got a chance and buried it. As a striker, you can be a ghost for 89 mins, but if you get one chance in the 90 min and you bury it to win the game, then all is good.

That said, I don't think he should be Man U's undoubted No. 9 at this point, I think Rashford and Martial warrant a few games through the center.

EDIT: Yea Lukaku should have had at least 1 goal. 2 really, but I'll give him the benefit of the doubt on the 2nd header. He buries the chance he had in the first 15 mins and it's game over.

I’m absolutely loving the fukkery. Whenever I think we’ve had enough fun United and Mourinho feed us some more

Never thought I’d be here to see such a farce of a Man U team while Liverpool bringing back the 80s

This might be the GOAT football season


Chelsea about to go back down to 6th place team without daddy warbucks

Arsenal looking flabby n sick


What a time to be alive

Top 3 easily

one of the players has to snuff Mourinho at this stage

Is Mbappe back from suspension?

I'll watch him play in big games like the champions league. But that's about it.

Too many cacs being overhyped right now in club soccer for me to fukk wit it full time.

I think Mourinho has lost that dressing room completely. Those players look like they have very little interest in playing for him.
