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

[Yayo Toure]

well, if we talking LiVARpool then

How VAR decisions have affected every Premier League club

ironically the teams it has giving more points to are to teams that are not even in the top 4, so, u lost to 7 teams u shouldn't have, eyen in the past 3 years in the Champions league u have done the same, Monaco, Liverpool( that Liverpool version was very fragile defensively) and spurs.

And the madrid team ur beating right now in champions league is not at the same level as when they won 4 outta the last 5 champions league titles

lol I'm not reading no biased espnfc article about VAR. Myself and every non deluded person in this thread saw the season play out.

Question, in those 7 games that City lost, that according to you, they shouldn't have, did you count the Liverpool game at anfield where you guys handled the ball in the box twice?

Enjoy the title.

There are no "ifs" and "whatabouts" that can overcome a 20 point lead. If Laporte was healthy all season, if VAR didn't exist, we'd still be ahead by double digits. That's all facts.

alright i'll give u that one, lose to Norwich, united ,wolves twice,Chelsea who cant defend,spurs and draw some other games u telling me the league would be close even if u won that game city are best team on paper,specially when u look from the midfield onward, no excuse to losing to teams that aren't even in the top 4

 

[bigdaddy88]

I know Klopp doesn't believe in creative midfielders like that, but they need one. Can't keep relying on your fullbacks and wingers to be the creative sparks. It takes a toll on those players like it did Dortmund.

edit: Thiago would be a great shout if rumors are true. so would Aouar

Yes he does, look up his dortmund sides, he definetly does. had phil stayed he would have been a very important player, he was gonna buy Fekir but the price and knee got him outta contension

Sané/Gnabry linkup Might become a Bayern fan

Nah, I'm not even with that "best team on paper" tripe. They just have the most expensive team. They have no reliable centerbacks aside from Laporte, they still haven't fixed their left back issue, and they probably need new strikers because Aguero's up there in age and Jesus just isn't good enough. I'd understand that "best team on paper" nonsense if they were 3 or 6 points behind.

But it's 20. And they still ain't got a Champions League title.

We can re-count the season blow be blow and you can go into long explanations about all the decisions that went your team's way. Just enjoy this moment and move on. We all know who the best team in England is.

You’re right we do, last season we lost the league by 1 point in the final match and this season we won by 20+ points, guess that settles it

 

[Yayo Toure]

Liverpool win their first league title in 30 years but their fans are so defensive.

If only your team was that defensive yesterday y'all would have had a chance

Enjoy the title.

Now that they signed Martinelli, it won't be such a massive loss if Arsenal fail to bring back Auba. They need Partey more than they need Auba back.

They probably need some CBs more no?

Their CBs will always fail because that midfield offers little resistance. Opposing teams, especially away from Emirates, are able to get into Arsenal's final third so easily because the spine of the team has been weak for several years now.

They still need a marquee CB, but I've always felt they need a real CDM more.

They'd be idiots to give him that deal. He's 31. Arsenal need to get their finances in order, and this would set them another 3 steps back. What was the last time Auba scored in a big match?

He just turned 31 a few weeks ago. Unless Arsenal can get big money which they cant. He's an elite goalscorer who they should keep imo.

They could get 30-40 million pounds from a Chinese or Middle Eastern club. I don't think there's another club in Europe that would give Auba that kinda contract. He scores a lot of goals, but few in big matches. Use that money elsewhere by signing a younger striker or strengthening other parts of the squad. They're no longer in Europe, so they can't afford to sink more money in an aging player.
