Match Day Thread Premier League, Cups & Euro Watch

I think we'll only win the league next year with 4 games to go.
Klopp's here for awhile yet mate. We both know this title wasn't his last for us.
Pep and everyone else knows it, hence the panic buying from all. Speaking of buying what utd sqaud number did Sancho get given?

 

And still walked the league, oh, and are actually competing in the CL too.
Big clubs fight on all fronts

 

Probably 17 when it's all sorted.
Do you (or even players) care about what number they wear on the back of a shirt?[/QUOTE]

 

Scraping for top 4 and europy after a helping hand of 21 penalties no less.

What kinda club is that?

 

They only had 2 games left when they won. We won with a quarter of the season left

 

One that gets players into the area a lot and cause panic in defences

 

[/QUOTE]
Players do. Some at least. Superstitious ****.

You think you'll still get Sancho? I heard he's waiting a year for the big teams to come calling

 

I think he is a lot of money for a right winger, if we get him then he needs to produce, if not there are others that are far better than James on the right.

 

Diego took a pounding last night...

 

Got to admire his staying power.
Though I thought he was getting a bit triggered at times and I stayed out of it.

 

Liverpool will now travel Austria for their pre-season training having had to shelve plans to return to France.

The Reds wanted to go to Evian, which has been the location of their last two successful training camps.
But earlier this week it was announced that from Saturday, people who return to the UK from France will need to self-isolate for 14 days.
And that could have been problematic for Jurgen Klopp’s side, who take on Arsenal in the Community Shield on Saturday, August 29.

 

*I see late night Friday night posting*

 

of course defences panic when you get a penalty pretty much every time one of players in the box drops to the ground .

 

Barcelona are a spent force. Bayern are very good.

F#ck me, I’d panic in the street if one of your front 3 walked past me, I’d probably get locked up for aggravated assault

 

morning btw

 

Klopp named Premier League manager of the season

 

Alot of problems with Barca these days, most of the main players are too old
Messi 33
Suarez 33
Pique 33
Vidal 33
Busquest 32
Rakitic 32
Alba 31

And then there are players like Brathwaite, Lenglet, Arthur (who is on his way out), who are just bang average squad fillers
The Fullbacks are too attacking, Alba and Semedo are like alot of FB's these days, can't defend.
They've also misspent on big name signings that haven't really done it. Demebele, Couts, Griezmann, De Jong.
Also Messi's wages seem to be costing Barca so much that they'll struggle to move forward until he leaves.
Sums up their season that the star turn has been a 17yr old kid nobody had heard of before this year.

Seems that all this stuff kind of echoes what I said about Arsenal, no clear plan of how to build a squad. But rather random marquee signings to appease the fans that have resulted in a disjointed squad with alot on unjustified high wages and clinging onto declining players who probably should have been moved on (also on ridiculously high wages)

 

Barcelona will be forced to pay Liverpool £4.5m if Bayern Munich win Champions League due to Philippe Coutinho transfer.
n January 2018, Barcelona broke the bank to sign Coutinho, 28, from Liverpool.

They paid the Reds a staggering £142million - and included a host of future incentives to tempt Jurgen Klopp into selling.

One of those add-ons sees Barcelona pay Liverpool £4.5m if Coutinho ever wins the Champions League while on the books of the Nou Camp.

But bizarrely, the deal never specified as to which club.

So, with Coutinho under contract at Barcelona - only on loan at Bayern Munich for the season - a Champions League win for the Bundesliga champions would hit Barca in the pocket.

 

messi’s wages are over £500k/week, Suarez £400k/week....even De Jong is on £360k/week. The list goes on and on....madness
