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

[zirc]

Just for the purpose of fairness I've seen a few blues on Twitter refer to here as the RAWK of Everton.

So there you are. Quick, act cooler.

Twitter is the RAWK of the world

Martin Tyler supports Woking doesn't he?

Closely followed by the RS if you listen to the knut ..... yesterday you'd have almost of though Ibe was his son the way he was bigging him up all the time but all I could see was a pony with no end product.

Martin Tyler is just passionate about his job

See the "AAAGGGUUUERRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOO" moment for proof of that

If City were taking the title off Chelsea or Arsenal, it would've been different.

Martin Tyler will just favour whichever team he believes is bigger just to court popularity. A lot of the refs are the same. That's why it's baffling to us that the kopites complain about him or the likes of Webb when all we can see is them favouring Liverpool in 90% of circumstances. They obviously only focus on the minority of games when they're not the so called bigger team and then cry conspiracy when someone actually refs them fairly.

Well yes I suppose I meant more in terms of who they have beaten. It does look very impressive, beating Chelsea City and Southampton. It's only when you look at the context a bit more that you can see those results aren't quite as impressive as they seem. Odd though it sounds but I actually think our victories against Sunderland & Villa are more impressive as they are more in form sides than they have faced.

I'd fancy Villa to nick a point at Anfield under their new manager and I think Sunderland may well beat them under Fat Sam.

People have got carried away by the proximity of the Chelsea City and Southampton games. Mixed in between though are two losses to Palace and Newcastle and an unconvincing home win against Swansea. Southampton wasn't even a prem game. They did play in the prem and it was a home draw. If they draw v West Brom next match Klopp will be on the same number of points per game as Rodgers was on after 8 games.

RAWK pre Newcastle...


How bleak it must be for supporters of other clubs to watch us having a carnival, and then realising Jurgen Klopp is not their manager

I almost feel bad for the rest of the league, as if we've unlocked the cheat code of football managers...

And that manager has unlocked the cheat code for our entire team! Made them all 20+ players

Funny you should mention this - it felt like the Man Utd team of the early 00s in terms of how audacious and direct we're playing. Every attack seems to have a purpose with every participant looking to have some idea on what to try if the first one doesn't work.

It's understandable people are getting excited about the way we've been playing and the manager himself. But talk about winning the league is a little premature I think. My opinion might change though if we find a way to destroy teams at home on a consistent basis like we have been doing in our away games.

I don't think I can praise Klopp any higher than by saying he's helped Dejan Lovren look solid and this week, he's helped Divock Origi play like Fernando Torres. Something amazing is happening at our club and we should just enjoy the ride.

With Klopp using the diamond formation to such devastating effect against Southampton, we might return to the 13/14 blitzkrieg style of play at home. Only improved and with a better defense.

If we can replicate some of those away performances at home, which with a bit of patience and support and SINGING (what's that?) from the Kop we will do, I think we will get back into the "How many will we score today" before long. How exciting is this? 2 months ago and we were in the bottom half, hadn't score more than 1 goal in any game in weeks, hadn't won at home (bar Villa - bottom side) since August and were really really languishing. What a turnaround. And there's plenty of the season left! Will we sign Stevie if come late January we are in with a shot of the title? Now that has me dreaming....

The opportunity is here and now. He'll seize it. Since his come in, we've been basically on title-winning form given the dross around us.

The thought has entered my mind that I wonder how much of our rivals recent loss of form is due to look over their shoulder at Klopp

I said something similar in the PL match thread; that our rivals would look at City's slip up but wouldn't be rubbing their hands with glee as much looking at us nervously and wondering if we will capitalise on it. If our rivals are too preoccupied with what we are doing and not concentrating enough on themselves, then the initiative has passed to us.

with spirit and confidence like this.... we are the most exciting team in PL now...

I'm not sure we will win the league this year but i am predicting we will next year and Origi will be Klopps Lewandowski for Liverool !!!

There is absolutely no reason why Liverpool should not win the league this season.

If we win tomorrow then we're really only 4 points off top spot. Call me impetuous, but I honestly don't see any point in factoring Leicester into the equation. Lets be honest about it, they're not going to be anywhere near the top 4 come May. They're a stone waiting to drop. Fair [Poor language removed] to them for doing as well as they've done thus far, but they've got a LOT of tough fixtures to come in the 2nd half of the season.

We will be in a title fight this season, make no mistake about it. That might sound like a premature statement given we're still in early December. But its on. No doubt about it. We've weathered the storm of our opening fixtures and bagged ourselves a world class manager along the way. If Sturridge can stay fit then you can bet your bottom dollar we're going to have a serious crack at the title.

80 points for the league title? 18 wins, 3 draws, 3 defeats from the final 24 games gets 57 points and reaches the blue peter total.

It'll be so bittersweet for Stevie if we do win the title this season. He'll of course be overjoyed as his beloved Liverpool win their nineteenth title, but will be sad that he wasn't there as a player.

I would love to punch this twot right on the bugle

They never learn. The same Kopites were singing they were 'gonna win der league' under Rodgers until they collapsed (an infinitely more exciting and capable team, btw, than this dire bunch of plodders they have now).

The evidence they work off is mind boggling. Since he arrived they've played 7 matches and won three, lost two and drawn two. 11 points. That points total in the last 7 matches has been either equalled or surpassed by half of the teams in the PL (we'll equal it tonight if we pick up three points too).

If there's anything that better illustrates the level of delusion amongst that lot it's facts like this.

Dave, they remind me of that song from way back, "Wishing and hoping, praying and waiting"

Sorry, but running round like chicken's with no heads for 90 mins is hardly exciting.

Also, Newcastle bettered the work rate of the RS yesterday and that's why the won, and that's all teams have to do, just out run them.

Spooky!!!!....1994 and Dr Fun foretold the coming of Klopp.

Klopp would laugh if his arse was on fire !!

Liverpool denied 'goal of the month' as Jurgen Klopp laments decision to rule out Alberto Moreno's strike in Newcastle defeat

The funny thing when you see it a couple of times, Moreno doesn't even mean it, IMO he's trying to flick it back across goal.

Happy days ergo for Stevie then. Of course, it goes without saying that it would be the end of the world for him should it ever happen...without him....ever having done it.... and no chance again to do so. Aaaah even spoilt boys cant have everything.

You can't really play that high pressing game to full effect when you have 3 games a week, which is what they have with europa, league cup and now with the FA Cup starting. They haven't go a good enough squad to bring in adequate replacements, they spent large on benteke who doesn't play that way and at the end of the season they're just going to be burnt out. In germany they have a winter break which would give dortmund respite, not here though.
