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

[Kunty McPhuck]

Your optimism belies your age

I'm sure every Arsenal fan would love for Arteta to come in and have the results of the likes of Zidane and Pep. Call me cynical but I just don't see it.

You're asking why fans would want a limited experience coach like Arteta, I'm giving examples as to why the fans want these type of appointments now and why big clubs are going this route over the last decade and Pep and Zidane are the templates. Whether they are successful or not, it doesn't matter, just like playing out from the back, wingers/wide forwards being the main goal threat is more common than ever before, it's the modern trend the game has evolved too.

Damn I read rumours saying he's out for the rest of the season and others said he's out for 2 months. I feel for him, I swear Barca is failing him.

Mourinho got these Spurs playing vertically, linking up beautifully

2-0. It's a 3 team title race now.

Lets hope these nikkas can keep a clean sheet. Cuzz they seem to fall asleep once they get a lead

What 3 teams? Its Liverpool solo. No one is catching them.

I'm not sure it's time to count out Leicester and Chelsea yet. They're still trending upwards.

 

[bigdaddy88]

i know Brighton havent scored but these nikkas are doing it again. I understand conserving energy, but 2-0 is not safe not even against brighton

 

[TobiOT]

Brighton improved even though they're taking L's. Seem to be way better in possession.

Dele is back

U can count chelsea out. While the team is young and exciting, they wont be competing vs liverpool for the trophy. Top 4 will be their ceiling this season

Mourinho got Sissoko scoring goals now.
