Klopp is getting annoyed at the press for saying our players are getting nervous . But the more he protests the more he brings attention to it. Just like Rafa when he talked about “facts”. Better for him not to get flustered about it.
yup. it's all just more signs things getting to everyone. just play the game. dunno what klopp was on going at friend like that at end.
Yeah it’s daft, you need the media on side really and that **** gets you no where, and rightly so. Let’s be brutally honest, we were handed a point with that shocker of a decision that we scored from. Hammers had how many just shave past the post? We were ****ting it
The wrong time to look like a mid table side fortunate to get a point at West Ham. We could easily have lost that game. And were it for that PGMOL shocking decision (astro take note ) we would have been destroyed by the home side. They missed quite a few sitters so we ought to be grateful for small mercies.
So city and spurs had their bump now we have ours.... Win next game we've done the same as City... of course we are relying on back ups that couldn't get in a second string city team but we aren't playing them. Need to get quick and simple back... we have ranged from static to hail Mary last few matches.
Context though, everyone that was in our position also had about a 10 point lead and didn’t have the most expensive team in world football chasing them down
Oooooooh that's terrible! Not sure their bump kept them in first either mate. Will we stay there? Not if we keep playing like that but then. .. nobody called city losing 4 games... and even in their bounce back they've still looked weak at the back.... like us. Lots of twists and turns in this one yet.... city look like they could win 10 in a row or inexplicably lose the next game. We look like we couldn't win Spurs? Well they look good when nothing matters as usual
I have always thought that mid-April is the time to start looking for league winners, this stage of the season just has too many games left to play. Spurs are bobbing along quietly under hard conditions (loss of critical players and playing to a 3rd full stadium at Wembley), they could well be the champions this season if things come together in the next two months. My suspicion is City will win it though by 6-8 points.
Concerned with our performances than results. Just not fun to watch, not entertaining football in the slightest.
With City most people thought that they would recover from their blip. Partly because of who they are: champions who have done it before but also partly because they have the depth in squad. We showed today that our second string is not even as good as the other mancs. Jamie carragher said it but was castigated by Souness. But look at the defence and midfield of ours. The replacements are not as good as United’s . The CL campaign now looks daunting with our key players not fully fit. The defence is starting to look less solid. I am afraid that a long campaign in Europe will affect our teams fitness in the premiership. With our full strength team we can beat any team outside the top 6 and have done. But with a weakened side we clearly cannot beat every such side as shown today. Let Clyne play. But hang on...
Let's face it lads, our squad is threadbare now. We have lost key players to injury and their replacements, unlike at Spurs, are not good enough. Letting Clyne go (which would have released Milner to play in midfield) is looking like one of the most bizarre moves in football. Keita and lallana should not be anywhere near the first team, let alone be in the same first team City go top on Wednesday for sure against one of the worst form teams in the league. We will struggle against Bournemouth if we still have injuries. Then it's game over. Shame we didn't buy to get us over the line. Ah well....
Imagine if the players who are 3 points ahead of city have this attitude. We are going through a blip which happens. Everything is in our control and we just need to galvanize the squad and fight hard for our wins. No one is going to let us have it easy.
yeah... I was really angry with firmino last night but salah was as bad. they will start really trying when it's already lost. the time to put the extra effort in was these last two games
