    Fulham Texas? I guess they have had a lot of American players. Talk about a culture clash, though.

    Hits both of his arms! <laugh> VAR! Wait, not that...
    Total dive for the missed penalty, too. Takes the touch and jumps into the keeper.

    True, though they've also had McBride, Ream, Bocanegra, Keller, Hahnemann, Johnson and others. Dempsey makes the most sense.

    Dempsey always reminded me of Jack Webb of Dragnet fame.

    Chelsea concede a late, late goal against the Toon. They have now lost as many games as us. Their next 4 league fixtures:

    Arsenal (H)
    Leicester (A)
    Man United (H)
    Tottenham (H)


    Keep believing lads... :angel:

    We dropped points, you lot dropped points, Chelsea dropped points, City drop points and United are very likely to drop points tomorrow as well.

    All of us look bottom-tier in comparison to Liverpool.

    If there is any justice in the world, Wolves and Sheff Utd will finish 4th and 5th respectively. No one else even remotely deserves it.

    it already seems like the end of last season as everyone desperately tries not to qualify for the most lucrative prestigious club competition in the world .

    It probably looks like that from your lofty perch, but the reality is none of us, Chelsea, United and Arsenal are particularly good. All four sides have squads littered with players who are past their best and many more who simply weren't good enough to begin with. Also none of them have particularly good managers. And City seem to be following the same pattern - with surprisingly poor decision making over the past 2 years. Not replacing Kompany was almost as baffling as making John Stones the most expensive CB in PL history.

    It pains me to say it, but you not spending in the summer is deeply concerning in the sense that you'll probably have a huge budget next summer. Play your cards right in the market as you have done so far under Klopp, and we could see a new era of scouse dominance.

    No thank you. I would prefer Spurs dominance!

    Could be a massive blow for United and possibly England -

    Scary how much better Liverpool are than Utd.

    That said, as long as it’s only 1-0 you never know

    Cheer me up why don't you.
    Without Kane and Rashford, England's chances in the Euros would be significantly reduced. Let's hope both are fit by then.

    50/50. Van Dijk's mistakes were to back in and raise both arms above head height, thus reducing the chances of him winning the ball fairly. He seemed to look to play the ''keeper rather than make a challenge for the ball.

    A foul for me, VVD did not play the ball and De Gea catches that without being impeded. Especially when you see penalties being given for a grazed ankle.
