ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC" part 3


Watching MOTD on delay: ffs, Sloth is such a sore loser with the šŸ’© he's spouting (guess he's at the right club for it).

Abysmal performance, no excuses for it (and we could/should have at least drawn the last derby).

Desperate.

He's accusing Man Utd of being a route one team when Klopp had used a long ball - as had his predecessors for years before. And he, Slot, profited from that brand of football last season.

They're playing Slot-ball and they look terrible.
 

Most overrated player I can think of. He's good but nothing better. They'd have you thinking he's better than Maldini.
I've argued this for years on here that RS success in recent years has been down to luck, VAR, possible doping and teams rolling over for them. Not them being terrific. Premier League has been incredibly poor in recent years,which is why we managed to stay up and RS have done so well. VVD wouldn't of survived in days of Shearer, Rooney, Henry, Tevez, even players like Yakubu and Cahill. RS have benefited from fact that teams including us, haven't had a proper striker, which most teams including us had in past. Maupay missed a sitter against them, that most strikers in past would of scored to win game. Teams have tried to adopt Guardiolas tactics rather, than playing to their strengths, Southampton could of easily drew against RS if they weren't trying to be Man City. VVD never played against Rooneys, Berbatov, Bergkamp, Shearer, Lukakus, of the world. RS constantly give away chances, it's just other teams in past have missed these chances. I think now people know they aren't that great and will go at them. Hopefully Frankfurt destroy them next.
 

They were in the second division in 1962. But your point is still well taken.

Sorry to be a pedant but it can only be 63 years because they were in the second division until 1962.

As a Mr Benitez would say ā€œthey are the factsā€.
They still didn't finish below 8th in the second division until way back in '55, so I'm taking your valid points and rejecting them on a technicality in the name of internet points.
