    TBF Koeman is only responsible for 10 of the 335 losses

    Luis Suarez is a good example.

    Henderson told a story of once when Suarez was carrying an injury his ankle had swollen up. All he did was borrow a boot one size larger from someone else in the team and played the game, scored a freekick as well. Sturridge would have been out for 6 months.

    True, but it doesn't address this one problem - Ford aside, Studge is the only genuine quality in that squad, and this has been known since Luis left.

    Trouble is, that can't be coached. It comes from within the individual. Tough to spot when looking to buy players I'd have thought but it is something we need to look for.

    quality delivers results.

    Committment is needs yes but the most committed journeymen can only get so far.

    Its quality that delivers

    If you get an Alonso.. wow you get both. great... but well you can get a few hendersons and is it making the difference? no.

    Liverpool could face Champions League play-off against Sevilla, Napoli or Dortmund
    Liverpool could face the likes of Sevilla, Napoli or Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League play-off round if they finish fourth in the Premier League.

    The Reds are in fourth place going into their final-day fixture at home to Middlesbrough, live on Sky Sports, but could overtake third-place Manchester City, who go to Watford, also live on Sky Sports.

    Liverpool are two points behind City and with an inferior goal difference (+33 to +36), but overtaking them could be vitally important if they wish to reach the group stage of the 2017/18 Champions League.

    Depends on who comes 3/4th in Germany and 2/3rd in Italy. If it's Dortmund and Napoli then we'd be the 4th ranked of the 5 teams that go straight into the playoff .
    round. If it's Roma and Hoffenheim, we'd be the 2nd

    Then it would need at least 2 of Ajax (if they don't win the Europa), Kiev and Zenit (if they overtake CSKA) to get through the 3rd qualy round to put us in the unseeded pot.

    With all those variables, still fairly likely to scrape in to the seeded half of the play off round.

    Mourinho is being given such a free pass by the media it's a total #joke

    When we focusing on the EL final that mean playing in the PL: Bogdan, Flanagan, Smith, Brannagan, Stewart, Ibe, Ings, Ojo, Canos, Chirivella

    Jose throws Tuanzebe into a team of some of the world's most expensive players who have won leagues and champions leagues but just because he's "resting" a couple of key players like Carrick that excuses the fact that they can't play any decent football under him

    Its a completely meaningless game. Who gives a ****.

    Weds and hudds ate playing for the right to play reading in the richest game in world football.
    Real can take a big step towards la liga
    Juve can win the first leg of a treble.
    Monaco can win the french leauge.




    And oh, there's a mid table game in PL.

    Sorry but I do
    I think he is probably one of the greats
    His moaning is funny
    I hope Klopp turns out to be a great as his personality in a amanager is so refreshing.
